Silvio Dante Posted April 23 Report Share Posted April 23 (edited) No, not City related. But the best show about football (other than the early years of Dream Team or possibly the Manageress) ever committed to television…definitely the best theme!

A very clever man. All his memorable phrases - "there's only one word for that - classic darts!" etc - were uttered deliberately and tongue in cheek to amuse his audience. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
