Bouncing Back. Again.

• We could all see it.
• The Banbury supporters could all see it.
• The Banbury management could see it.
• The distressed Banbury lady who chose to walk her young children up and down in front of the Poppies fans until she could take umbrage at the, admittedly, over-the-top swearing.  She could see it.  As could her scarred-for-life offspring.
• The Banbury troll who deliberately twisted abuse of a goalkeeper who happened to be black, to sound like abuse of a goalkeeper BECAUSE he was black.  He could see it.
• The matchday officials could see it.
• The stewards could see it.
• Half awake passengers on the 2.35PM from Kings Cross could see it.
• Shoppers at Banbury Christmas market could see it.
