Week 14: Livercoolio On The Up

There's this book, right, and it's a corker. A Real Page-Turner. FULL of magic and stories and tales of duty and heroism and betrayal and temptation and all that sort of fing, right, innit though and that, and, well, there's this one bit where the Irish hero - Jesus O'Nazareth or summink - tells this geezer to get out of his wheelchair and walk. Something like that anyway, I can't remember the details but it's 'mazing, mate, a-maze-zing... [fades into background]

If we replaced the star character of the New Testament with the Manager of the Week Certificate [bear with me here], which is holding out its arms to Russ Bielby [who's just had a not-funny operation] and shouting at him to "WALK, DAMN YOU, WALK!" then I think I might have got away with that bloody awful opening paragraph.

Yes, Ladies and Gentlemen of The OFFL, Russ is recovering from his operation and made his first few steps this week. He should be sent home soon. And he'll have the MofW Certificate to accompany the Nurses' Special Boy Certificate which he earned for eating all his greens.

Well done Russ.

Oh, and for your 30 points for Livercoolio.
