Jonesy7211 Posted November 26, 2023 Share Posted November 26, 2023 I know he was allegedly a little dodgy with finances, but I'm still gutted to this day that Venables never took us to World Cup 98. We were going places under him. Southgate gets a lot of pluses for uniting the squad, but El Tel did that whilst playing good football.

Mark Albrighton Posted November 30, 2023 VT Supporter Share Posted November 30, 2023 I’m knowledgeable enough to know of Kissinger and the Paris Peace Accords. I’m suitably stupid enough to only really know of them because of Kissinger dropping his glasses in the toilet during his visit to the Springfield Power Plant. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
