JP: Craig, you've been to see Manchester City. How was it?

CS. Er, grim.

JP: Grim? Really? Well once again,
you see, because people always assume that I've got
loads of technology available to me here and lots of
people rushing about giving me bits of paper like they
do on television. In fact I'm Just watching the television so erm...

CS: [...]

JP: Oh right yeah. Okay go on, tell us all about it

CS: Well I mean the first half we were all over them.
It's a typical City game, y'know.
Ye were like totally outplayed,
and they're rubbish anyway,
West Ham, it's got to be said.
[.. .] but erm no we were all over them in the first
half and I don't know what he puts in the tea in the
second half but erm we were like kinda zombies when
we came back on. There weren't any good players apart
from er Rocastle which I thought was

JR: [...] that one little thing where he sort of...

......

CS: Yeah we do we play lots of football,
loads of passing, they play too much football,
they're just kind of er. .
. everyone's like looking for a passing opportunity
rather than like a scoring opportunity.

JP: Not going to go down though, are they, Craig?

CS: Er.. .I don't know. Everyone else in er.
.. everyone else thinks we're gonna go down but they've
just like suddenly come out of closets,
y'know, they've like discovered their grandfather was a United fanfar.

JP: Right

CS: ...some years back It's like the whole of Manchester
at the moment anyway

JP: I was told you see, I was always told er the conventional
wisdom was that .... that isn't the case any more.

CS: Well the true Mancunian is the Man City fan, I find.

JR: (laughs)

CS: I mean they're all reds really aren't they and er. . .

What upsets you really is that the training that you
must have in discussion at your own level regarding
the existence of god is far greater than everybody
that's ringing in tonight.
