Weblog: The football punter
Backing the Bees could end in embarrassment
IT'S not the best Monday of football with a mediocre La Liga match and a League One clash on the agenda and I expect that the highlight of my evening of football viewing will be backing Brentford against Carlisle just so I can think up increasingly daft Bees puns.
I'll probably start off with a few gentle classics, talking about how sweet I was on them before the game, how glad I am that they appear to be absolutely buzzing and how pleasing it is to be waxing lyrical about them.
The trouble is, if I have a few beers during the game the terrible
puns tend to get rapidly worse and before I know it I'm calling the players honey and queen.
By the start of the second half I'll probably be shouting: "Pollinate the flower! Pollinate the flower!" every time Gary Alexander gets near the goal.
It's embarrassing enough by that stage, so I'm just hoping there won't be a sting in the tail.
