The lost or possibly last Chuckle Brother chortled his way into 2026 with a selection box of metaphors and allegories:
"Terrific performance against the ball, their xG must have been extremely low...not a day for pretty football, horrific conditions...that pitch could have bowled 'em like Adelaide."
Or maybe Big Dave was hungry:
"We've got us fingers in a lot of pies and we're waiting to see if many get thrown in our faces or they taste rather nice."
So are these transfers with or without gravy?
The usually livid Wild man of the West was rather mild as he sighed through the obligatory post-match journo-joust
"Both teams done nothing...a rubbish game of football, nothing's happened whole game, rubbish".
I said mild, not sane, it's all relative and a question of perspective:
"As soon as we touched them they threw themselves on the floor...again another ref that's been hoodwinked"
