Duncan Quote by P.J. Davitt

“I score a fantastic goal but it’s not enough? Maybe Duncan thinks I’m lucky to conjure a sublime moment in a dreadful display. Maybe there was a better pass onto Wayne in the build up. Told you, Bop. He’s not a team player. He’s a wildcard. Selfish.” quote by P.J. Davitt
