Blades on Saint and Greavsie in 1989

[Gavlar]

Saint and Greavsie. Ah those were the days.

Compared to the over analytical, humourless tossers of today Saint and Greavsie are a great antidote! Even they admitted they didn't do the show for serious analysis.

Aw. Did that offend Bert?

Okay. I'll clarify. Saint and Greavsie = pair of overpaid cunts. Dragged into the old ITV network studios to periodically wax lyrical and talk nonsense about football and spin yarns and 'bants' like the geriatric old duffers they were. Sum total = fuck all. Bit like Paul Merson these days, in particular Greavsie.

Just to clarify further = Jimmy Greaves, of his time, devastating footballer of mercurial talent. So we agree on that.

Hope this helps too. I know you have snags understanding stuff, Bert. Happy to assist where needed.

Bassett looks more like he's managing the pigs in that shell suit

Think Stevie Wonder dressed him that morning.

Greavsie had a stunning 422 goals in 602 appearances.
Brian Clough could well have bettered that had his career not been cut short through injury. His 251 goals in 274 games is fucking incredible.

Most of Clough's goals were scored in the 2nd Division, Greaves scored his at the highest level.
