So it seems it’s okay to like Graeme Souness again. Now that he has been on television talking emotionally about his plan to swim the channel to help poorly children, it’s okay to tell the world how much you admire him.
Strange how it wasn’t so fashionable to stand up for him back in the opening month of the football season. That was when Souness spoke on Sky following a match between Chelsea and Tottenham and described it as a “man’s game”. No, back then, it was much easier to join the social media throng, shake your head and talk about what a dinosaur he was.
