Johnr1996 Posted May 18, 2017 Share Posted May 18, 2017 I'll preface this by saying I am in no way a "happy clapper". That said I feel we need some comic relief: I was at work this morning feeling sick as a dog and trapped under a grey cloud of defeat and disappointment, as I'm sure all of us were. But then this song came on the radio. A cheeky little 80s number from (arguably, I know it's a hot topic) the best of the Rocky films, Rocky IV. As I was listening to the lyrics, still grumbling with a face like Steve Bruce's backend, I began to picture Carlos singing them, dancing angrily in an abandoned warehouse in the dead of night, Footloose style. I implore you all to do the same, it certainly lifted my spirits a little and got me in the mood for the fight that begins August. After all, the lyrics fit damn well. No easy way out lads, no shortcut home. Chin up my fellow owls. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kingsidney Posted May 18, 2017 Share Posted May 18, 2017 Rocky wouldn't have conceded the first leg without throwing a punch. Proper sportsmen don't go out and purposely try not to win. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
