In Block 122 the lad next to Terry Dolan put both hands flat on his own face.
3 rows in front of him a woman of about 30 in a Palace shirt with WARD on the back turned round and looked for somebody behind her, and there was nobody there she knew, and she turned back round again.
Terry Dolan did not sit down.
He stood there with his arms folded while 60,000 people sat around him and the lad pulled at his sleeve twice and he did not move an inch.
He is 58. He has had that seat since 1979. He has watched this football club from the third tier of English football.
He was not sitting down for Sergio Agüero.
1-2. 32 minutes.
I did not look at my bench.
I had been looking at 1 man on it since about 54 minutes, and I had been looking at 1 man on their pitch since about 51, and the 2 of them were the same idea.
Benjamin Mendy had gone 40 yards forward for the 29th time and come back at a jog.
"Rebecca."
"Christian goes now."
"I know he does. How long have I got with him?"
