SIXTEEN Years ago THIS happened....How we laughed!!!! ;)

Adrian Westerstream-Smythe age fourteen and a quarter has witnessed his dad going through a troubled year. It all the fault of those troublesome supporters who will not do what they are told. Quins R Fab but not as fab as they used to be. When my dad ran the official unofficial Harlequin’s Supporters Club it was really fab. We had a proper newsletter with a proper title ‘Nunquam Dormio’. My dad says that the title of our newsletter reflects how well educated we are, unlike supporters of other clubs who don’t understand Latin.

My dad has not been happy. He says that some ‘upstarts’ have been running amok at the club causing all sorts of problems. He says they are not showing him the respect that as a renowned journalist he deserves. I think he likes them even less than those stinky poos at London Irish. A lot of ‘these people’ wear funny coloured trousers. At matches you can see them drinking, laughing and eating pork rolls. My dad says they are all very undignified, not proper Quins people at all.

Quins really r fab, the team that is. My dad says that the calibre of supporters is not what it used to be. The problems started back in autumn. Some of these so called ‘Diamond Geezers’ started to ask my dad difficult questions. I remember he was particularly upset by the one, ‘What’s the point of having a supporters club that does sod all?’ Anyway my dad remained dignified, he decided to rise above such impudence and he refused to answer.

What really made my dad mad was when these ‘oiks’ started poking fun at him on their website. My dad used to run the website until the people behind it ran out of money and stopped paying him. He might still be running it if some of these ‘great unwashed’ hadn’t gone behind his back and persuaded Sportnetwork that they could do a better job. Pah! My dad ran a much better web site. You just have to look at the Quins site now to see how poor it is. Yes, they may have new stories almost every day, but they don’t come with the authority of a famous journalist such as my dad. Over on the London Irish stinky poos site I read that their stats have risen steadily over the last year, to the point where they are matching those of the Paddys. This cannot be true, if it is I bet it’s because my dad and his chums spend so much time checking the site to see what the ‘plebs’ are planning to do.

Quins r fab. One person my dad really put paid to calls himself Prof, what a silly name. Anyway last year this Prof person had the nerve to challenge my dad’s rightful place as chairman of the official unofficial Harlequins supporters club. My dad managed to stop that but was stuck with this ‘troublemaker’ on his committee. Pah! My dad showed him who was boss, he sacked him then threw him out of the club. Later on my dad said he could come back into the club as long as he understood his place and treated the chairman with due respect and reverence.

After this all sorts of these ‘mongrels’ started asking my dad impertinent questions. My dad remained very dignified and refused to answer any of them. One of them even had the nerve to write awkward questions on a hand written document because my dad had told him that was the only thing he would accept. In keeping with his high office, my dad decided to ignore this anyway. Some of these ‘rotters’ even tried to make my dad’s club hold a special meeting. My dad, quite correctly, said that it was his club, the constitution didn’t really mean what it said and that he would hold a meeting at a time and place to suit himself. By sheer coincidence he scheduled the AGM of his club to coincide with the Players Awards dinner. Some of these ‘bounders’ complained that this was unfair, saying they would be at the dinner and wouldn’t be able to vote. My dad decided that the most dignified thing he could do would be to ignore these disrespectful complaints.

Quins r fab. A group of these ‘rabble’ formed their own club, they called it Quins Supporters Association. It’s not even a proper club, it’s an association. My dad says there is no way Harlequins would recognise an association unless it was affiliated to the official unofficial Harlequins Supporters Club. He says the only reason the club let QuinsSA use the Stoop to hold a meeting was so that they could keep an eye on proceedings and report any of their findings back to him. My dad says that the one hundred and fifty initial membership did not count for anything as they were not proper Quins people. He wouldn’t want them in his club anyway because they wouldn’t treat him with the reverence he deserves.

My dad was not happy when he got home from his clubs AGM last night. One of these ‘louts’, a chap who calls himself Harleys Evil Step Mum, got himself elected into my dad’s rightful position as chairman of the official unofficial Harlequins supporters club. My dad says that this is only temporary, that despite any vote he is still rightfully the chairman, it’s only that his title has changed to treasurer. He says that once people realise the error of their ways they’ll come grovelling back to him asking forgiveness.

Quins r fab. Some stinky poo said my dad looked and behaved like the Iraqi Information Minister, I don’t see any similarity at all.
