I vividly remember as he was coming on my mate turned to me and said, 'Not this flid!' and then the inevitable happened. :hehe:

Happily, there wasn't really time between the equaliser and Sunderland's winner to discuss Wally's contribution too much.

I lost my lighter in the post-goal bundle as well. When they were pulling Wembley down, i wonder if a workman found a 1970s Ronson down a crack somewhere.

Compare him to David Court then

I always preferred the full term ‘flidomite’, as it referred directly to thalidomide whilst also hinting at ‘sodomite’.

Even now, if I drop something, burn myself or trap my finger, I will call myself a flidomite
