I remember when he managed to get the referee not to count a Chelsea goal, because the ball had entered the net via a hole in the side netting. Nothing but respect for the guy. Every week we see players cheating to get decisions to go their way, yet his honesty got one of his team's goals...
When I get a call that I deem to be suspicious, I only say the word "hello". They normally hang up by the time you've said "hello" about a dozen times. I wonder what the world record is ?
Stayed in Berlin for a few days about 6 months ago. It's like one colossal building site. The food is c**p, and architecturally it was very disappointing, primarily because of the war damage inflicted by the allies. No attempt has been made to blend any of the modern buildings in with the ones...
The guy is a complete and utter god. Each and every one of us are fortunate enough to have lived through his life and times. His talent is a generational thing. We have been blessed to have been given the opportunity to witness it. I spent eons searching for the new Bruce Springsteen, or the new...
I’ve been in Amsterdam for the best part of a week. Haven’t watched TV. The Dutch always give the impression that they’re ‘right on’, yet I’ve see more Palestinian flags than Ukrainian ones. I honestly can’t understand it. I’ve only seen one small Ukrainian flag so far. It’s really disappointed...
Complete and utter nightmare with BA, who cancelled our early morning flight to Amsterdam late the previous evening. Had to rebook for a late PM flight same day = losing a day of our holiday. Whilst on the tarmac, waiting to taxi on the runway - the evening flight that was already 90 minutes...
Neither of them are covered from head to foot in tattoos. Personally I'd rather sign a player who is adorned with tattoos. That way, they might condescend to spend some time on the training ground, rather than in the tattooists. The hairdresser could be a problem. Flying a Turkish hairdresser in...
I had the misfortune to see him live at The Dome once. I guessed the weak punchlines before he'd had a chance to utter them. He actually sang to a backing track of a 70's rock song by 'free'. I think it was 'Little bit of love'. He's no Paul Rodgers ! It really was a crap evening.
