Fight night
Thirty thousand fans at a sodden Upton Park last night to watch David Haye beat Derek Chisora in the fifth round. Not a great result for ethics (it's somewhere near Brentwood), but the chairmen will be pleased with the bounty. It seems there's an appetite for watching pugilism at Upton Park so maybe we could arrange some more bouts. A cage fight between Julian Dicks and Martin 'Mad Dog' Allen would draw the crowds and I wonder if Keith Robson or David 'Psycho' Cross might be up for a fight? Or maybe a rematch of Billy Bonds versus Colin Todd… though maybe best not to involve John Hartson.

That ethics joke is the sort of thing you can wait a lifetime for a chance to use. And all the funnier for the wait!
Cheers Steve - almost as good as that Perseverance Works line! Good luck in your run...
