Explain.

 

Cos it was still there all along, as Thommo said; and I missed it! Not that we should be mentioning it, of course; it's surely only a matter of time before a mod wakes up from their post-five course lunch snooze, spots this and does the needful... :smiliz23: Unless this being Xmas Day, there are no mods! :santa4:

If they delete the post and lock, it will be our secret. We will be the holders of the word. :laugh:

That's interesting. I know he refers to England as 'we', but beyond that, what gives you that idea?

 

On Green v Saggers: some years back, Saggers asked Green for the team news at the game he was covering. Green hadn't got it yet, a mild on-air spat ensued, and Green, arsehole that he is, never forgot it. It all came to a head in Moscow after the 2008 CL final, the contemptible Green furious that Saggers didn't leave Alex Ferguson's post-match press conference in order to escort him to Five Live's transport. Why? Because Green had to wander through a crowd of Man Utd fans to get there; and of course, United fans quite naturally hate him.

 

Even though there was no trouble, Green unbelievably refused after this even to travel on the same plane as Saggers to games abroad; and the BBC saw him as indispensable, so wouldn't renew Saggers' contract. It was an utter disgrace.

 

That's incredible. Green has always struck me as a weird character but it sounds like he's quite bitter as well.

 

On the Northern Ireland thing, I just always find he shows no enthusiasm at all for his national team and the night that they beat England 1-0 in Belfast he actually sounded much more gutted as an England "fan" than he was pleased as a Northern Irishman.
