My heartfelt thanks to all those who came down to the game last Saturday. You made my dreams come true as you will now read.
The following are actual, real life comments recorded live at Fados during the Crystal Palace Liverpool game.
Craig, 32, from Glasgow, Scotland, has supported Liverpool since he was a wee bairn and has seen a majority of their games at Fados. "I cannae believe it. I dinnae know when I have ever seen so many damn Palace fans in here. They're like rats. They just keep on coming."
Nigel, 44, born in a box in an impoverished suburb of Liverpool, missed one of the goals because he couldn't stop staring at all the Austin Eagles. "What the feck is happening. They almost outnumber us now. We may need to find a new bar to watch Liverpool. You can't see the screen for these feckers."
John, 25, from right here in Austin, Tx, said: "Crystal who? Sounds like faggot talk to me?"
Claire, 28, from Blackburn, England, who has hated the scousers of Liverpool her entire life, shouted playfully in my ear: "I don't usually support your lot but I hope you guys f*ck them up the arse."
A friend of Chris, 27, a Liverpool fan born rather inconveniently 200 miles away in Bristol, said: "Before today, I would have bet against there being even one Palace fan in Austin. Where did they all come from? I knew Austin was weird but Jesus Christ."
You guys are awesome. It was a treat to see so many Eagle shirts gracing the torsos of my friends.
This week may be the last game for a while we will see down the pub. The following three weekends have either ludicrously early 6.45am central time games or an empty slot.
I know I said that last week's game was the one to come to but this one really can't be missed. The Eagles take on high flyers Arsenal who are challenging for the top spots in the league. It will take a huge group effort on our part to push our boys to the win.
9am Fados Saturday.
