On topic, I was recently reading recently a book about the 72 series and I got a kick out of this line:
Esposito was encouraging Sinden, early in the series when things weren't going well, to stick with a set lineup instead of ensuring all the players got into some games. Harry said to Phil ,however, that he had promised to give all the players at least a chance in the series at the beginning. Phil responded "Well, I promised my wife I wouldn't fuck around, but I did".
Hadn't heard that one before, or if so, I had forgotten. It struck me quite funny.It didn't say, but I am assuming he was referring to an earlier wife, from whom I think he had already split at the time..
