True, but I bet he loved it.
I once played on a snow covered field in Kazan in the middle of Russia in regulation jersey and shorts. We got cut to pieces but loved every minute of it.
I once played a 9 a side game in blundstone boots in the Ocavango delta against a bunch Kiwi's.
Gawd talk about taking things seriously ..they were bloody hopeless ..it wrecked what was meant to be a bit of fun.
Two blokes on their team ended up having a punch up!!
...and they were best mates who'd been travelling together for about 18 months.
The Africans watching were very confused ...the women and children started bolting for the bushes.
Things were very sombre at the bar that night.
