Joyce wrote in Switzerland; Wayne Rooney walked all over it.
"...I was a Flower of the Mersey yes when I put the ball in the air like the Brazilian boys used or shall I wear the white and red yes and how I kissed it over the Swiss wall and I thought well as well me as Owen and then I asked him with my feet to ask again yes and then he asked me would I yes to say yes my Everton flower and first I put the ball around him yes and drew it down to Stiel so he never felt the ball all perfume yes and his heart was going like mad and yes I said yes it's there my son Yes. "
