Lanterne Rouge Posted March 29, 2023 Report Share Posted March 29, 2023 I remember taking a girl I worked with to a night game after we`d been up from Devon on a course in Bristol. Kevin Amankwah was playing and he cocked something up whereupon I shouted `FFS Manky, sort yourself out`. She was totally shocked thinking I`d called him a monkey until it was explained to her!
