Summary
After Keeley taught him the word 'Pavlovian', Jamie fiddled with it for a few weeks, taking it on and off his mental shelf, before shunting it off to the back of his mind where he kept all the other pub quiz answers.
When else would he ever need to know that word anyways?
-
5+1 Times Jamie fell asleep in front of Roy Kent — the person, not the poster.
But it was never really about that.

Summary
“When I heard about what happened– after that I started looking around. Found out you folks had added a night for friends and family, so I thought I’d make like that fella on The Bear and see what’s what. I don’t know how I got my nights mixed up, but I walked in expecting an AA meeting. I wasn’t expecting this.“
He gestured at the bulletin board, or was it still a sandwich board if it was hung on a wall and not outside a sandwich shop?
The board didn’t have an answer for that. What it did have, in white block letters, was the notice:

Summary
"Jamie’s fairly certain at this point that it is the natural order of things: you have to go out and drag joy home by the ear if you want any. So, he’s got no problem with that, he never did really. It’s just, well, it’s been increasingly difficult to do that. Or to feel anything other than… He’s not entirely sure what to call the weight pressing down on his chest when he sits in the locker room before training, but it’s that. All the time. And it is fucking Zava’s fault."
...
The evening before Richmond's last training for the Boxing Day fixture, Jamie feels so alone that he decides to go and buy a Christmas tree for the first time in his life. He gets in a car accident on his way there.
He's not sure how he could have alerted anyone of that fact with his phone gone and probably broken to pieces, but people seem weirdly mad about it. Jamie's convinced that's also Zava's fault.

Summary
The ethics are doing Roy’s head in. It feels like one of the stupid philosophy dilemmas Beard trots out, which he appears to think are an appropriate substitute for small talk on a pub night. Add this to the list - trolley puzzles and Roy’s weird sex problems:
1. Is it okay if your boyfriend gets off to the thought of you doing something that he thinks you wouldn’t think is hot but actually you do think it’s hot but he doesn’t know that so he’s all fucked up over it?
2. Furthermore, is it okay if you tell him you think it’s hot too, even if you know it’s going to make his dumb little idiot brain explode for some reason?
aka how to get your boyfriend to let you call him a princess
