PSSSSSSSi've got 1 eye working, so its fuzzy, but i can only imagine you've put my thoughts into English m8 and slightly better than i could, marginally though
Wim was the original hunskelper, he achieved 1 league title, but that specific league title carried more weight than another 10 combined
He stopped the runaway train and managed it while giving off the impression that he didnt know a football from a chief executive cum commentator
there will NEVER be a title in my lifetime that will matter more than that one.
Sure there were others that were delicious, but securing that holy grail was the catalyst for what followed. The juggernaut that was the huns under Murray were given their first bloody nose and the house of cards started to unravel. I can't imagine where history would have taken both clubs had that day turned out differently .........
as an aside i met Wim at the Lambert testimonial dinner, many years after the event
while i was all over the man that stopped the ten, my pal unwittingly was trying to pull his extremely gorgeous wife, many many years younger than Wim.
I'm reminded of him asking her 'are you staying locally love', she replied 'yes, i have a room here', 'well what are we waiting for doll ?'.
with great wit she replied 'despite being as cute and funny as you are, tonight i'm going to sleep with the man who stopped your 10'. like being k/o'd but caught by angels
ps respect to Wim, he won and announced he was off next day on a point of principle', no hanging on for a pay off or XYZ, i resign....money is irrelevant
pss what a barnet too..fergus and jock was just jealous
My pals reply was paraphrasing ' i've never been into threesomes, but this is as close as i'll ever get'
