Respect also to the City fans who stayed to applaud the winners (rather than stream out at 10 minutes to go with tails between legs as the rags do when they come unstuck).
This isn't an apology, or an adverse reaction to what you're saying, but I swear I would have stayed and applauded the Piefaces lifting The Cup if it hadn't been so pissing late. I got straight out, over to the station, and had to queue for an age before getting the train back to Breaconsfield and Sgt. Dazzler's Honda, taxiing on the runway. He'd been there half an hour when I got there. It really hit home what a stupid kick off time it was.
