Anybody in charge, in their right mind, who heard Zanetti’s slurred garbage on the tannoy at half time in the Chester league game would have binned him on the spot (literally the centre spot). They didn’t and here we are.
Might not have been as simple as that given how far down the line of planning they were (contracts, promotion, agreements etc)
I get that but, after all the pre match stuff from the club telling fans not to do anything that might cause trouble, they invite someone to have the microphone who promptly starts chanting “F off Chester” after his initial incoherent nonsense fizzled out. Did they need to see any more ? I didn’t.
Actually quite funny on the day, imho, seeing someone make such a tit of themselves. But in truth a real low point, more suited to the Hilton era.
I clearly remember, just after Tom Zanetti finished his little display, James Moody saying over the PA “Oh dear, that was embarrassing… I’ll tell you what he should have told you” – and then giving details of the Weekender.
