p.shilton Posted January 13, 2012 Share Posted January 13, 2012 Well, I have never met him but he has consitantly ruined the match day experience for many years for me personally. I wish him all the best- especially if it keeps him away from PP! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Has anyone got Ross's commentary on the play off goal, I bet that was a beauty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
