Jones the preacher man


Charlton manager Nathan Jones is going to use some of his summer break to preach in a Welsh village.   The elders of the tin tabernacle in Llanddewi Brefi have been impressed by his style of delivery.  Instead of using the pulpit he runs up and down the aisle shouting at the congregation.

Jones has prepared a number of football themed sermons which will also be available as podcasts:

God does not need VAR as he is the ultimate referee and never makes a mistake in his judgments.

2.     God does not need a fourth official: the Holy Trinity is enough for Him.

3.     With divine help it is possible to resurrect a club like Charlton and see it ascend to the Promised Land of the Premier League.

4.     You can save penalties – if you have been saved.

5.     There has never been a Saint Nigel.

6.     You discover that your neighbours are Millwall – are they beyond redemption?
