What would YOU suffer for success?
« on: March 04, 2020, 10:43:38 PM »
So, I was in a dull meeting today, and found myself wondering what levels of privation I would be prepared to undergo if it meant us winning the league and the Champions League in the next five years.

Multiple votes allowed, but please do not vote for any option more than once.

Vote for every one of these you would be prepared to undergo in order to get success.

Does the chest ear actually work?

Apart from the butler gig, there's probably a downside to most of these I'm not seeing.

None of those are anything compared to the indignities I would be prepared to suffer to see us win the FA Cup.

I'd undergo all ten if it meant we did not get relegated this season.

Option 8: There would be a charge for meals and lodging.

I think I'd only consider being shot.

I could find uses for an inanimate third ear. I'd plonk on some headphones, get some tunes playing whilst the Mrs is tearing strips off me. When she thinks I'm not listening I'll just point to my chest ear, give her a thumbs up and say, 'I'm listening love, don't worry.' I won't tell her my chest ear doesn't function.
It may lead to trouble later on, but I never think that far ahead. (Speaking of said trouble, I might as well vote for being shot in the arse too.)

I would like to tick all of those.
Edit: I have ticked all except KRO shit. Whilst  I am truly desperate I couldn’t do that.

I'm going with Warman.  I bet he's got a first rate static caravan.

This was my thinking. And Oswestry isn’t that bad, it isn’t quite in Wales.
