What a performance, great goals.He said: Yeah but I should have scored the other goal.I said: What goal, dont worry about that you got four goals.He said: But I have 19 goals and one more goal and I would have won your money. I went: Oh my god. I didnt realise that. I would have subbed you way before that. I said no way would you have stayed on the pitch. I would have had you off the pitch straight away.I forgot about the bet and I didnt know he had 19 goals. I would have subbed him straight away, Jim, there was no way he was going to have my 20,000 off me.
