best thing since sliced bread
another linked one!
a team of football-playing rats challenged some mice to a game. Confident that their size would give them victory, their non-playing captain, another rodent, snoozed during the match, which had finished when he awoke. He asked about the result and was told...?

Talking of football, remember a certain England manager's most famous saying?

Re: Descramble
not being a footie fan, I am not doing well on this one; though, researching some so-called memorable sayings of these egotists, I might surmise that the one-letter word is "I". Can you furnish some further clue?Athena wrote: Talking of football, remember a certain England manager's most famous saying?

Re: Descramble
Extra clue: It's more usual to say it this way round 1,2,3,4,4 and it's what you might say when you disdain something.
If that doesn't help enough...

There are three fundamental questions for anyone advocating Brexit:
1. What, precisely, are the significant and tangible benefits of leaving the EU?
2. What damage to the UK and its citizens is an acceptable price to pay for those benefits?
3. Which ruling of the ECJ is most persuasive of the need to leave its jurisdiction?

Re: Descramble
Yes, it's correct - well done. I think it became memorable at least partly because he sounded like such a wally for saying it.
Re: Descramble
Another clue? This is still on the theme of the game of football.
