Jai S. thought that Pleat reminded him of….
“….a morris dancer who had a really hot curry the night before.”
Glen S. was convinced we’d made the Luton boss look sillier than he was…..really?
“This Footage has been doctored. I was at this game and Pleat had a football at his feet and went on a mazy dribble. He beats one, beats two, then does a hop skip and a jump, before celebrating by raising his arms. By erasing the ball you have made the man look a fool.”
Chris D went down the musical route, and although we were sure about the ending, it’s silly and we liked it…
I'm so excited and I just can't hide it
I'm about to lose control and I think I like it
I'm so excited and I just can't hide it
And I know I know I know I know I know Im a mad hatter!
Gary M. played the religious card and it paid off, although again we weren’t sure exactly where he was going with this one.
"Hallelujah! Praise the lord! My legs!! I’m Healed!... Praise The Lord...Ohhhh Praise The Lord, Bow to the lord and he will heal your sins!"
A lot of you were quick to bring Pleat’s past sins into the arena. Chris L. gets a free bet for
"David could no longer kerb his enthusiasm".
Yes it’s a cheap gag, but believe us it was the only one printable…
Richard M. thought Pleaty was on a recruitment drive, and it wasn’t a bad shout really…
“He looks like he's joined the Hare Krishna Movement, a stadium full of football fans at the end of the season was just an irresistable opportunity to get some converts under his belt.”
Mark M. chipped in with this piece of surrealism…
"Frank Spencer struggling to grasp the idea of streaking"
And Allen F.’s fertile imagination got him a prize, but why the airport….?
“Remember when I saw that bloke at the airport trying to smuggle two ferrets in down his trousers.”
Finally for sheer effort Tony W gets a deserved prize
Pleat skips, Pleat hops
Pleat should be locked up by the cops
Those brown slip ons, that grey suit
A curly mop as well, to boot
Pleat looks like no other man
But exhilaration he does, like any true fan
The final whistle, the team stay up
Almost as good as winning the cup
To survive again, top flight once more
It tingles your bones right to the core.
Pam Ayres eat your heart out….
