I did find it curious that Edwardo, when interviewed the other day after announcing his retirement and asked what he was doing next, talked of a number of wonderful ventures... but none involved us/assistant coaching.

Likewise... and that, to use your word, cringe-worthy image of a cauldron bubbling away with the images of other clubs in the stew. To quote Effy, "How embarrassment.' Not to mention rank amateur stuff that served only to humiliate our club. To extend on the food metaphor - rancid stuff.

Our fingers are crossed, Fluffy One. I'd hate to lose Edwardo - again.

I think "they know we're coming" was even more cringe worthy.
