When We Were Kings



Crash-barrier seats and tennis-racket views. Gary Kelly, in shorts as tight as clingfilm, doing keepy-ups on the six yard line. "Kenny, Kenny sit on the ball," booming out from the Gallowgate. My dad dragging me home five minutes from the end...

Maybe too much information but I own shorts like that. My brother refers to them as my ‘women repellent shorts’.

I used to have a pair too. As I remember, the main problem was you spent half the game trying to pull your underwear from out of your backside.

Which makes that stepover all the more impressive.
