“Big Sam” Allardyce in his post-match comments following Blackburn Rovers’ 3-2 victory over Burnley in the East Lancashire Derby:
“It’s my birthday tomorrow, so obviously that was an early Christmas present from the lads.”
This reminds me of a possibly apocryphal quote attributed to a Met’s announcer (Ralph Kiner?) who said during a broadcast of a game of Father’s Day, “It’s Father’s Day today, so to all of you dads out there- Happy Birthday!”
