Two kids are playing football in a park in Manchester. Suddenly one of them is attacked by a Rottweiler which clamps its mouth around the kid’s neck.
The other kid, seeing the danger his pal is in, picks up one of the sticks they were using as a goal post, puts it through the dog’s collar, and using all his strength twists it until the dog’s neck breaks and his friend is saved. This is all seen by a Manchester Evening News reporter who sees a possible national headline in the incident, and goes over to the kids.
\"That was really heroic\" he says \"I can see it now \'Heroic United fan risks life to save best friend\' \".
\"But I don\'t follow United\" says the kid.
\"Ok, how about \'Super City Kid fights off rabid Rottweiler to save his pal\'\".
\"But I don\'t follow City either\" says the kid.
\"Well who do you support\" asks the reporter.
\"Liverpool\" he says.
\"Even better\" says the reporter \"Scouse bast*rd murders family pet\"!
