Perhaps they're all ill.

Food poisoning?

 

[Marked Ox]

Food poisoning?

Or hungover.

Moody was not happy about the celebrations.

He wrote on FB that he did not even attend the game in the end. The pre-match meal was for himself only, which meant his partner would need to sit alone for the duration. And he was not even invited to the evening thing!!

 

[arthurturner]

I was more surprised by the "legends" that weren't at the game (or apparently weren't at the dinner). Where were Ron Atkinson; Trevor Hebberd; Malcolm Shotton; Gary Briggs; Joey Beachamp to name but a few. May be Paul Moody wasn't alone in the treatment mentioned above . Were they also expected to pay for attending the dinner? Who was there on a freebie?

 

[Malc]

Perhaps the names mentioned had an another appointment?

In all fairness Ron Atkinson is in hospital with a kidney infection he got while in Tenerife.

Joey was there both in the afternoon and apparently at the evening do with his wife. Ron is ill in Tenerife. Les P on holiday in Vietnam. Powelly declined as has bad memories of the Kassam ( injury etc). Jeremy Charles recovering from very recent knee replacement.

Looks more like one of them is about to get her back doors smashed in!

 

[uptheus]

Where were all these legends? Aldridge, Hamilton, Houghton, Hebberd, Brock, Moody, Elliott, Langan, Jim Smith, Thomas, Burton etc etc?

 

[North Wales Yellow]

Did Jim Rosenthal present as billed? No mention of him in the article on the website. Looks like Nathan Cooper hosting from pictures.

Obviously nobody told KR how to dress for a black tie event.

Northerner. No class. ?

Scouse t**t, anything for a freebie, should have been ashamed to go after putting us down, not as if he did anything when he did play for us

Surely, as Manager of the Football Club, you would make sure you follow the correct dress code for an event like this.
Perhaps, if you didn't have black tie attire you would surely wear a smart suit.
But no … a jumper!!!! What was he thinking of? Rather embarrassing really.
Even 16 year old Slavi had a smart suit on, come on KR … poor show.

seems the old adage that goes something along the lines of "you can take the scally out of scouse -land, but you can't take the scouser out of the trackies" sort of applies?

...dey do, do dat , don't dey

I appreciate some of the comments about KR here are tongue in cheek (one in particular!) but it’s this kind of ridiculous OTT criticism which makes me more inclined to back him over some of our fans.

He didn’t wear black tie? Who gives a f**k - more concerned that he helped us win three points a few hours earlier than his sartorial choices.

Some of our fans love to dish it out and don’t see the irony of using phrases like Gobbo as an insult.
