“Always I say the same…”
March 2 -2007
I’ll not pretend to understand what drives young, British men to film themselves impersonating Premiership managers and post the results on Youtube. But I will confess to enjoying it.
Having already heard from “The Special One” we now catch up with Rafa, post-match. Extra points for the homemade sky-sports background.
You’re right. I found this much more enjoyable than watching the snippets of actual managers between match highlights on FSC’s EPL Review.
Here are my requests for future impersonations: Neil Warnock (after his club gets mauled 4-0), Harry Redknapp (after the transfer window closes), Chris Coleman (after the ref awards his opponent a BS penalty in stoppage time).

Or, how about Aidy Boothroyd being impossibly optimistic.
“I know a meteorite has crashed into the Earth and killed two billion, but I have to believe that we’ll be able to overcome the daunting odds of a permanent winter and repopulate the Earth! I just know the lads have it in them.”
This used to be a running joke with an old team of mine during the pre-match kick-around (and post-match drinks. Though, usually, it was just an Arsene impersonation… “I’m sorry, I did not see the incident… I cannot comment on it.”

After a few pints…
the postmodern head-nod at the end of this clip is truly fantastic. The “only you to talk about transfers” line slays me. IT F-ING SLAYS ME!
