“Two, four, six, eight; who do we appreciate?” “United” was the answer you were meant to shout. United; they’d appreciate united. Then “One, two, three and a quarter; who do we want to slaughter?” The answer to that one was “City.” United wore red, and City wore blue—ManU the good guys; City ever bad, or so she thought. The trouble was, they're just words; she never understood which one was which. One Catholic team, one Protestant; one appreciated, the other one set for slaughter. “Two, four, six, eight...” “What comes next little sister?” Oh brother, how Lizzy hated eight.
