Grealish Smacked at Manchester’s Mad Derby…

In a football fracas fit for the wildest of cartoons, Jack Grealish got a face full of spectator enthusiasm at the Manchester Derby! Freshly subbed off, Grealish was serenading the Stretford End with his signature luscious locks when a fan managed the cheeky feat of allegedly slapping the star right in his dormice-soft cheeks! Thankfully, Grealish’s face survived intact, protected by that indestructible force field known as footballer invincibility.

The long arm of Greater Manchester’s law has swooped in faster than a player diving after a feather-touch tackle! They’ve nabbed the allegedly belligerent fan, 20-year-old Alfie ‘Slap Happy’ Holt, and booked him for a date with the judge on July 14. Wearing his best “Oops, I Did It Again” expression, Holt will be trading footballs for gavels in Manchester’s courtrooms instead of Old Trafford tunnels this summer.

Off the pitch, Pep Guardiola, the great philosopher-coach, was left scratching his Spanish head as fans’ insults about Phil Foden’s mum rang around like a dodgy referee call! Taken aback by the attacks, Pep lamented the lack of class, decorum and perhaps a shred of common sense. Ah, football derbies: where goals evaporate, and drama escalates like a balloon in a prickly desert!
