Could also be translated as "Thanks for all the licking."
Bruce probably licks his lips so often because he is desperate to taste the taste of Ashley's arsehole on them.
I'm sure Luke Edwards didn't watch the game. Had to write a summary article for the PL.
He will be delighted for his mate Bruce having come on and scored so early.
But those injuries! We scored too early too. It forced us to play more defensively to defend our lead against the champions B-team.
Otherwise we would have played Bruce's signature free-flowing attacking football.
