A quick one - Watford till I die

‘Only time for a quick one today’, as we often say to Mrs Spurt, as that cursed sapper of our leisurely spurting discourses ‘work’ intervenes to keep our spurting contribution to a minimum.

Still we couldn’t let this one lie , with the batshit insane quite normal and not-sanity-defying-in-any-way news that the Bundisliga's Hamburg are going to be the first football team to offer a stadium-side cemetery where fans or rather ex-fans will be able to get a grandstand view of the pitch-side action post-mortem.

"Many people think it's crazy and a strange idea," Hamburg board member Christian Reichert told German newspaper Suddeutsche Zeitung. "But our plan is to capture worldwide attention with a serious venture."

No shit Christian. We only hope our beloved Watford, the mighty Hornets, are working on a plan to offer us similar facilities for the afterlife.

We always knew they’d drive us to the grave one day.
