When Big Ron Went Iffy

[Frigby Daser]

All through the Peterborough episodes it was geared towards making Ron looked half competent, which it was clear to anybody watching that he wasn't.

They had Jeff Stelling narrating saying 'Ron displays his tried and tested man-management skills to great effect with the Peterborough players at half time', whilst a similar scene with Steve Bleasdale would have him narrating something along the lines of 'Ron watched on in amazement as Bleasdale fails to see blah blah blah'.

It was hideously biased, yet still failed to show Ron as anything other than a fat, ignorant, arrogant and incompetent fool who lives in the past and under the illusion that he has a role to play in football today and that anybody has any repsect for him.

He winds me up by the way!

Some of the scenes with the Bazza'n'Ron double act just made me cringe - what was worse was that they were clearly really pleased with the "work" they were doing. Moonraker's spot on.

That can't have been easy, juggling being STFC manager and Archbishop of Canterbury at the same time.
