    That one window we spent more money on disco lights for the champions league nights than we did on players then failed to qualify for the champions league

    Pretending that Mikey Nicholson is CEO when he’s never been anything but Lawwell’s errand boy.

    On the pitch, Jonjoe Kenny kicking the ball out of play for a corner from our halfway line against the huns, only for them to score from it.

    Off the pitch, nothing will ever beat appointing Lennon in the showers, ruined what should have been a great day with a cup win.

    Lawwell publicly apologising 1.5 years ago for the state of a transfer window before proceeding to do the same thing for the next 1.5 years.

    Aw dearie me I wasn’t even considering the on pitch stuff.

    Cha Du Ri scoring an all timer of an OG away to Rennes and proceeding to pish himself laughing like he was at a Billy Connolly gig.

    That would defo make it on to the album.

    On that one Lennon give his side 5 days off after the 1st league game of the season so Bolingoli could get his hole in Spain

    Incoming - pretending it's been a good transfer window and saying with a straight face that the club are well set for the season ahead.

    Getting put back into the UCL on a technicality before proceeding to get pumped out again by an even worse side from a smaller nation.

    The way we treated Oliver Kapo. He came to the club, moved his family here, found a new school for his children and then the club offered him a contract with 1/3 of the wages previously discussed.

    Then realising (when we'd fired the apparently successful McKay) that the best man for the job just so happened to be already in the board and we'd actually overlooked his talents all that time! #AndHereWeAre

    The whole Benji Siegrist saga where he was told he could find a new club, but the board flat out ignored (genuinely ignored, as in didn’t respond at all) said clubs when they made offers.
