SPECTATORS

They bark instructions brief and blunt:
"Move!" "Take it on!" "Get in front!"
"Left, Kev!" "Bad luck!" "Run him, Chaz!"
"Go on!" "Get your head up, Daz!"
"Get it! Get it! Get it!" "Shoot!"
"In there, Brian!" "Use your boot!"
"Wooooooo!" "Unlucky!" "Come on, Town!"
"That's a corner!" "Ref! He's down!"
"On your feet!" "Don't hang about!"
"Get it out, lads!" "Get it out!"
"Off side, referee, you berk!"
"Hey there, linesman! Dirty work!"
"Off! Off! Off! Off!" "Get the ball!"
"Give him some support there, Paul!"
"Yeahhh!" "Go on!" "Work 'em well!"
"Free kick!" "Take it!" "Give 'em hell!"
"Make some chances!" "Hey! Off side!"
"Run him, Robbie!" "Ohhhh, well tried!"
"Good header!" "In there!" "Play!"
"Get across him!" "That's the way!"
"Got it!" "Squeeze!" "Now, put it in!"
"Get there, gary!" "Goooooooal...!"
"We win!"
