I might listen to Woodward if the Villa pay me.

I wouldn't.

I even cover my ears when I leave my seat in the Upper Trinity (a few minutes early to beat the traffic, done-to-death-argument fans) and have to pass through the concorse where the tellies are still blaring out his Partridgean commentary, just in case I catch any of it.

On the subject of matters Partridgean.   If you are ever in East Anglia, God forfend going to a game against Norwich, and want a laugh go into the BP filling station on the A11 just after the Thickthorn junction with the Norwich ring road.   This is where they shot a lot of very funny Knowing Me Knowing You footage.

If the manager of the filling station is there just say "isn't this where they filmed Alan Partridge?"   His reaction can be measured on the Richter Scale.

I always do it when I have had a bad day at Yarmouth races and it cheers me up no end.
