Bloody 'ell UR expect McManus on here demanding the virtual ref is publicly flogged.

Could you imagine it ha ha To be fair it wasn't totally anti Saints as I think that Cas gave them a game pre-lock down

Covid19 has placed McManus in the Father McKenzie roll of the Beatles song Eleanor Rigby, writing the words of a sermon in a programme that no one will read.
