The Wit And Wisdom Of Neil Custis

[LittleShop]

In the words of Dawn from The Office....extraordinary.

Why didn’t they go for the hard hitting questions? Like what he thinks of the Athletic, how much pocket money Neil bribed him with to get him a job in the media, how they’re the only two mainstream journalists not asked to work at the Athletic.

Neil Custis

Here's Shaun Custis (left). Still nothing like IBF. Also nothing like Neil … suspicious. Quick quiz - who knows who the one on the right is ?

[LittleShop]

Neil his usual humble self about not being nominated for a Sports Journalist Award...

I think he’s found a friend in James.

[JW90]

Maybe football hispters (people who like football outside Manchester United, basically) give these awards?

Neil doesn't like those people. They watch foreign football.

Bitter

I fucking love Twitter sometimes. I can imagine Neil cowering in the corner now scared he’ll never get an ‘exclusive’ at his beloved Man Utd ever again.

Custis doesn't even belong to the sports writers' professional organisations. He makes a big thing about boycotting them for unspecified acts in the past. In his own head he's Jimmy Stewart, taking on all the corrupt elites singlehandedly. To everyone else he's just a petulant tit.

Did they not autograph his membership card or something?

[Erskine Might]

Oh, this is CLASSIC Custis! So he rants away at the Sports Journalism Awards, sending them some of his best bitter zingers, but in his haste he ends up sending them all to a completely different Twitter account owned by one Seth Adams. Priceless!

What a dunce.

Is he actually a real person?

I'm not sure he isn't one of those fictional characters dreamt up by some author who will compile the tweets into a mildly amusing book in time for Xmas.

This is sub TS level incompetence.

Here's an odd thing about the Zelig-like one: if you do a full newspaper archive search on Shaun Custis, you get this -



Loads and loads of pages featuring Shaun, back to his days on the Newcastle papers.

But if you do a search on Neil Custis, you get this -



Spooky!

[Champagne and Roses]

Neil has retweeted this. Will we really need him and his copied out Manchester United press releases after this is over ? I’ve heard two versions.

[JW90]

Tough choice- pay your money and keep Custis churning out his usual Man United shite, don't pay and The Sun might collapse.

Ooh, difficult.

[The Ghost of Alex Higgins]

Fuck off and die all newspapers, the fucking phone hacking pieces of shit
