Two boys are playing football in a Manchester park when a rottweiler runs up and attacks one of them. The other boy rushes to help and manages to pin the wild dog down before breaking it's neck and killing it. A local newspaper reporter taking a stroll through the park sees what has happened and rushes over. He takes out his pad to ask the boys some questions.
As a rough heading he scribbles down: "City fan saves boy's life."
The boy says: "But I'm not a City fan."
The reporter crosses out his headline and writes: "United fan saves boy's life."
"But I'm not a United fan either" says the boy.
The reporter replies: "Well who do you support then?"
"I'm a Liverpool fan."
The boy goes home, and next morning he runs down to the local paper shop to read about his heroic story. The front page headline reads:
"Scouse B*****d Kills Family Pet."
