All the lads: No.

A.Young: Oh yeah ... I forgot. Sorry Stewart.

Delfouneso: Oh yeah! I'm in the goals man!

Heskey: In many ways I should claim that goal, I mean I did teach you everything you know.....

****Delfouneso casts his mind back to training with Heskey*****

**************************************************************

Heskey: Now if you find yourself in a one-on-one situation with the 'keeper close your eyes and blast the ball as hard as you can.

Delfouneso: At the goal.... Right?

Harewood: Sure I don't get much pitch time but I make it count when I'm out there, I mean I scored didn't I?

A.Young: Yeah ... But ... You play for Blackpool.

Harewood: Huh? What're you talking about Ashley? We were just out there on the pitch together. Me, you, Gabby....

A.Young: Look at our kits.

*Harewood scratches his head looking around at all the claret and blue then down to his own, tangerine shirt*

Harewood: Wait a minute ..... Did I just play in goal?

A.Young: No, you were...

Harewood: Was I referee!? Wow .... FIFA will probably have something to say about me scoring eh?

*A.Young buries his face in his hands and sighs*
