We only have him for two months. Not until the close of the season.garethom wrote:I could appreciate that if it was in say, a cup final, you haven't won anything since he left, comes back, wins you a cup.magma wrote:Haha, surely you can appreciate the romance of the story? Man has wildly successful, record-breaking playing career at club after being considered a bit average when he turned up, wins trophies/doubles leaves to a standing ovation, years later (with the club not having won any silverware since his departure) has statue erected outside club then finally returns and scores on first game, celebrating with a hug for the manager that made him who he was?
Yeah, boring.
Football has a strange habit of blinding people to fun; it's a nice story. If Beckham went back and dug Man Utd out of a hole by scoring a freekick it'd be just as romantic.
Not vs Leeds in the FA Cup 3rd round.
Therefore, It's our moment - let us have it.
(I was there btw - sitting in the Clock End.)
