Reporter was Rebekka Arnold, on 14 June after we were first linked (which I think was before Barella) and it didn’t really gather any traction. She was quoting Pirlo from last November.  Here:

Anyone remember being on their week-fortnight away to Spain with the family as a kid, you’d get the paper a day late and that was your only source of transfer rumours or news the whole time you were away.

Better times. That and teletext.

Unfortunately I was at that match, I can’t remember if it was Shearer or Hughes who blazed over the last penalty.

I remember being in Kavos 2012 and paying a euro to go on the computers in the hotel to check this place for signings, thinking we’d kick on after qualifying for Europe.

 

We signed Vurnin Anita only,

Hughes, should never have lost that after being 1 nil up from 1st leg, the beginning of our fall from grace.
