The Red Devils

Martin at Counago & Spaves has posted a colourful account of last night's pre-season friendly between Altrincham and FC United. (You know, that footie club that was set up by disgruntled Man Utd fans after the Glazer family won the club in a tombola draw.)

I know I shouldn't make light of it, but the mental image of the ". . . 70-year-old and his 8-year-old grandson . . ." had me in stitches. I'm guessing that they won't be asked to be the stars of the next Werthers Originals ad campaign.
