However if something serious happens to them I will eat my own cock.
If anyone is going to put a few fingers deep into my arse it's going to be me.
Nope. They were collecting for a new disabled bus for kids a few years back. Some Everton players posed for photos, signed shirts and the like. He heard about it, walked off and came back with a cheque for the full amount of the bus.Not too shabby behaviour that.And it wasn't the last time either.http://www.liverpoolecho.co.uk/sport/football/football-news/duncan-ferguson-donates-coach-testimonial-12362484http://www.liverpoolecho.co.uk/sport/football/football-news/everton-hero-duncan-ferguson-pays-11281751http://www.liverpoolecho.co.uk/sport/football/football-news/generous-everton-hero-duncan-ferguson-11414669I know a few people that know him and he's a good lad.
Paul Scholes!
That guy in your avatar!
When I was a kid, Souness was my idol. Loved Kenny, too, but everyone did and I've never been one to follow the crowd. Souness was cool. He was a great footballer but also a shithouse, happy to nobble an opponent and fiercely protective of his teammates. I had some Top Trumps of footballers and they said he was 5-foot 11-and-a-half. I wanted to be 5-foot 11-and-a-half. And am. Never done the Souey 'tache, though; that'd be too much. I tried to model my game on him when I played, but ended up more Robbie Savage. Pity Souey besmirched his legacy by being a shit manager for us, then selling his story to the scum. Given their respective lives, however, Kenny wins hands down, though. A legend of a player and a legend of a man. I have nothing but admiration for him.Non-Liverpool: Socrates. Totally opposite style of player (and person!) to Souness but utterly cool as fuck. Just used to stroll round the pitch bossing it; his positioning & reading of the game was superb. And could he pick a pass! It was as I got older (and after he'd stopped playing) that I learned about his hugely courageous stance against the military dictatorship in Brazil, and his outspoken politics. He once said the three people he admired most were Che Guervara, Fidel Castro and John Lennon. He'll do for me. Throw in that he smoked like a chimney, drank like a fish - and was an actual doctor Just a pity his party lifestyle ended up killing him at a tragically young age
*Consults draft list...Yep.
Haha, this thread definitely fits in well with the Hipster draft.snip
How could I have forgotten Jay Jay Okocha!!! What a gem! So good they named him twice!
Haha, this thread definitely fits in well with the Hipster draft.
Disappointed at the lack of hipster shouts in here. To that end:
Sex bombs to the left of me would be playboy bunnies to the right and here I am stuck in the middle with my pasty white bird.
Even 28 years later I still find the whole Schillaci thing mental. The most perfect storm in football history until Leicester won the league.
I'll raise you a Magico Gonzalez.
George Weah not getting enough love, what a player, not that he cares now, El presidente .
Crosby Nick never fails.
^^^Is the one when he ran about 70 yards? Remember watching it live on C4, no social media or mobiles so had to wait til school the next day to see if anyone else had seen it. Maybe two others had and hat was it. A goal like that would be all over social media within seconds of going in these days.
Don't want to sound contrary but I think both Weah and that goal are a little overrated.
Sometime around 2000 some pals dragged me out one hungover Saturday to The Valley for Charlton v Man City. They were either both in the Championship or had both just been promoted, I forget which, but I looked it up recently and was surprised to say the least to find that Weah was playing that day. I had no memory of him coming to England at all, let alone actually seeing him in the flesh.
