Results Sketch

Does this work?

A MAN (JAMES) WALKS INTO HIS DOCTORS.

Doctor: Ah James! You're here for the results I presume?

James: Er... yeah.

Doctor: (PICKS UP PAPER) The results are..... Arsenal 2 - Manchester City 4. Bolton Wanderers 0 - Liver...

James: I'm not here for the football results.

Doctor: Oh I see. I do apologise. Who do you support though?

James: Everton. But I don't see what that's got to do with this. Can I have the test results please?

Doctor: Of course. Ah, it's bad news I'm afraid.

James: Really?

Doctor: Yeah, India have beaten England by 19 runs.

James: For heavens sake! Will you just give me my results!

Doctor: Right, I'll give it to you straight.

James: Good.

Doctor: Like a man.

James: Great.

Doctor: You have 6 months to live.

James: Bloody hell!

Doctor: Good news is though. You won't have to see Everton get relegated.

Neatly done even if I know nothing of football.

Good lead but the ending seemed poor.

Family Guy have a very similar sketch, but obviously nothing to do with Football, still a good sketch though.

The end would be stronger if you changed the line "I'll give it to you straight" to "I have some good news and some bad news" and take the sketch on from there.
