Page 2 of 3

Well get it sorted, 'cause this lad has a bad habit of turning cash flow problems into blood flow problems.

What money?

You're a betting man. We'll make a deal. Let your lads play. Win or lose, you call the result. Bet accordingly.

Back to your fixing the match routine, right? Now listen, it's like this - I'd never take a bet against England, and I wouldn't bet the screws against the cons. Capisce?

Then we can play to win. Would you think about it?

Yes, I'll think about it. But right now, I'm thinking you're polluting my air. Now go away.

[To Meehan]

So my arse is on the line. And by my arse, I mean your arse.

Trojan

All right, Raj. You be black.[in a game of chess]

Raj

No, I'll be white.

Trojan

Just chill. You got a black nose.

Raj

You saying I'm black? That makes me the first Iranian from Babylon.

[After learning Mr Ratchett has been kicked twice in the same area]

Just goes to show lightning can strike twice.

Abso-****-lutely, Bob.

[Danny Meehan is about to take a free kick in front of a wall - the ball is kicked straight to Mr Ratchett's private part]

Ooh! Right in his carrots and onions!

No nookie for Mr Ratchett.

No nookie for Mrs Ratchett neither.

[Prison guard to Secretary]

:Hayter: I wouldn't get too close, Miss.

Tracey
[Secretary to Danny]

Why? You're not dangerous. Are you, Mr footballer?

[Meehan to Secretary]

Only if you've got the ball, Miss.

Doc
[Watching The Monk practise Karate]

Apparently he killed 23 men with his bare hands.

Maybe I should take up Karate.

Doc

That was before he took up Karate.

It's funny, but when you're in that football world, you just don't realise what it means to people. You only find out how disappointed they are, when you let them down. I was 16 when I signed pro forms. Thought I was the business. Didn't take long for standards to start slipping. Cars, booze, bad tips for slow horses... You think you can handle it, then bang, very soon it's handling you. Before I was picking up trophies, I was 425 grand down to men nasty enough... well, even they would have put the wind up Mr Sykes. But they did give me two choices - a wheelchair for life, or a deliberate penalty against the Germans. It's not as if I've prospered. Look where I've ended up.
