Tks for that Jeff.
It reminded me, some of Lou Reed's post-Velvet Underground stuff was magnificent, in my view. :-)
Still waiting for somebody to play Coney Island Baby at the ground on matchday....
Cause, you know some day, man
you gotta stand up straight unless you're gonna fall
then you're gone to die
And the straightest dude
I ever knew was standing right for me all the time
So I had to play football for the coach
and I wanted to play football for the coach
I don't read The Press copy that often, and obviously am not geographically present to compare Tony's take on a game to my own.
But as a former football journalist I must say I've mostly been unconvinced by the tenor or the substantiation of the complaints lodged against Tony on this forum.
I'd want to see a bit more evidence that he's "lost it".
(Big Pete, would respect your view on this....)
I certainly don't think Tony can be compared with Terry Maddaford... quite different in terms of careers, abilities, philosophies, despite similarities in longevity.
