Funny story really (as i’m sure with most of us!)…
Ever since I was born, my father would do his utmost to nurture me into becoming a Manure fan. He’d make me watch games with him, dress me up in kits, buy me merch and generally ramble on about them and bring them up during any football related anything.
Then one day, not long after my 6th birthday I started actually taking football a little more seriously (if I can use that word to describe a childs actions at that age) and take (some) notice of the games – I’d play in my backyard and sometimes i’d even (try to) sing the national anthems to myself before running around kicking a ball between two plant pots on my own shouting out the same 2 or 3 brazilian players names – And this time I actually looked at the T.V rather than running around shouting or being generally cool;
It was Tottenham Vs. Man Utd – I really don’t remember which game exactly – But i’m my fathers house and there was me, in my little Man.Utd strip, And sat in his arm chair was my father, wearing his manure scarf, chanting towards the television and my general direction;
"Come on you reds! Come on you reds!…"
"Hey, come on son! Come on youuu reddss!! Say it son, Say it…"
As I look over at the T.V, I respond:
"…I like the Emu dad!!!" "Go Emuuuus!!!"
*silence*
Dad: "Oh no! Not a spud…"
Me:"Eeeeemmuuuuussssssssss!!!!!"
Yes, I am now aware it is a Ostrich! But either way, i’ve now been following the club for 19 plus years, and this was the moment which made me the Spurs fan I am today! ;):)
COYS!
ps: (yes, i know it’s not an Ostrich)
