541 Twain’s Revenge

If we don't win, I'll jump into the sea!

This phrase became a headline in almost all of England's media in the sports edition in the days that followed, and even made front page headlines in certain media outlets. Such feverish hype of this topic in the English media was actually a backlash against the Italian media's previous provocations.

At first when the photograph was published in the Italian media, Dunn did tell the truth in an interview, which was not as the Italians had perceived. However, the Italians opted to turn a deaf ear to it. They chose to make an issue out of this photograph to deliberately make things difficult for Nottingham Forest.

It was a psychological warfare before the big game, but as the parties involved in the warfare, Nottingham Forest and Twain were both very annoyed by this behavior.

The one thing that Twain hated the most in his life was to be insulted by the other people in this way.
