is not an action-adventure starring Michael Douglas, Danny De Vito and Kathleen Turner. It is FA Cup 4th round weekend here in the UK, and mighty Havant & Waterlooville (currently 12th in the Blue Square South League) are playing some bunch of no-hopers from Merseyside.

Ravelston persuaded himself that he was fond of pubs, especially
low-class pubs. Pubs are genuinely proletarian. In a pub you can
meet the working class on equal terms–or that’s the theory,
anyway. But in practice Ravelston never went into a pub unless he
was with somebody like Gordon, and he always felt like a fish out
of water when he got there. A foul yet coldish air enveloped them.
It was a filthy, smoky room, low-ceilinged, with a sawdusted floor
and plain deal tables ringed by generations of beer-pots. In one
corner four monstrous women with breasts the size of melons were
sitting drinking porter and talking with bitter intensity about
someone called Mrs Croop. The landlady, a tall grim woman with a
black fringe, looking like the madame of a brothel, stood behind
the bar, her powerful forearms folded, watching a game of darts
which was going on between four labourers and a postman. You had
to duck under the darts as you crossed the room, there was a
moment’s hush and people glanced inquisitively at Ravelston. He
was so obviously a gentleman. They didn’t see his type very often
in the public bar.
