World Cup special
In reported news this week out-on-loan Liverpool striker Andriy
Voronin was hoping to use Thursday's World Cup qualifier against
England to prove his worth to the Merseyside club.
In a surprise turnaround after he told the world he didn't 'Give a
damn!' what Liverpool thought about him scoring goals with Hertha
Berlin, the Master of the Universe look-a-like told reporters, "I
would love to come back to Liverpool."
Luckily for all concerned Voronin showed as much skill against
England as he did in an entire year for Liverpool and will now be
shipped off into the German night forever. Hurrah!
El Diver hits back!
This week Cristiano Ronaldo hit back at Swedish striker Henrik
Larsson for calling him - a diver!?
Stoking up the fire before drawing 0-0 in their bore-on World Cup
qualifying clash, Larsson told reporters he would be calling on the
ref to keep two close eyes on Ron.
Ron then hit back saying: "It doesn't bother me what Larsson says
because I know I don't dive, and that is all that matters."
To prove the point, El Diver then did what he does best for
Portugal, which included lying on the floor after being knocked
over by a leg, ball, arm shaped feather for most of the game.
Weird Crouch dance raises its head
After promising NEVER to bring back the infamous 'robot' England
beanpole Peter Crouch has promised NEVER to repeat the weird 'rope
dance' he busted out in celebration of his goal for England at
Wembley on Thursday.
"It was just a bit of fun" the Pompey man said "It's always
enjoyable when you score a goal for England&.. (but) I can
assure you it won't become a regular thing."
Considering England boss Capello admitted Crouch only started
because every other striker apart from Michael Owen, who he hates,
was injured and England's form in every international competition
since 1966 we'd have to agree with you on that!
Look at Crouch 'pull the rope' here with your eyes:
While the lads away the ma will play
While Chelsea man John Terry was anxiously getting ready for
England's World Cup qualifying campaign, his ma and ma-in-law did
what any proud mother of an England skipper would do by going on
the rob.
Sue and Sue were officially cautioned by police outside a
well-known British supermarket called Tesco's ALLEGEDLY loading a
haul of ALLEGEDLY robbed gear including "Flip-flops, clingy
leggings, casual shirts, watches and dog food" into their
car.
Afterwards a probably not reliable source told equally probably not
reliable British tabloid The Sun: "His mum's trolley was full of
stuff he (Terry) wouldn't be seen dead in - including a hideous
green tracksuit."
But judging by the new England five-pound polo with badge we
wouldn't be too sure about that.
The Argies get done
This week Maradona got his just desserts as Argentina were thrashed
6-1 by Bolivia. The worst defeat in 51-years happened just two
games into Argentina's World Cup qualifying campaign.
While critics have claimed Argentina's lack of preparation to play
at the high altitude was a fundamental error on Maradona's part, we
put it down to the fact that while Maradona once enjoyed getting
high, he obviously don't like to get THAT high.
Coming to a Premier League club near you
Lock your doors and your daughters, wives and anything female that
moves folks cause serial lady-lover Sven Goran Eriksson is out of a
job, again. Yes the Swede got sacked less than a year into his
'dream' job as Mexico coach after a run of not winning, which you
kind of really need to do to make it to a World Cup don't you
think?
Burley bans the booze
After the controversy surrounding Barry Ferguson and Allan McGregor
getting rotten for 12 hours after Scotland's defeat to the
Netherlands, then being sent to the naughty step otherwise known as
the bench before making the brilliant decision to make V-signs in
front of the whole 15 people who watched Scotland beat Iceland,
Ferguson and McGregor have had their international careers cut
short while Scotland manager George Burley has taken the decision
to ban the booze from future Scotland squads which we think is a
real shame cause watching Scotland get beat in most of the games
they play while half cut was all part of the fun!
Other stuff that isn't World Cup stuff
The messiah returns
In what first appeared to be a cruel but brilliantly timed April
Fools jib at the expense of the loyal Toon fans, it has actually
transpired that Alan Shearer IS taking time from a once illustrious
career on MacDonald's adverts and offering not much of a point of
view as a BBC pundit to steer Newcastle away from the drop.
"This is a club I love and I desperately do not want the club to go
down. I will do everything I can to try to prevent that." Shearer
said
We may be a bit cynical here at tvnz.nz.co's football department
but we can't help thinking that Ashley may have brought the
Newcastle Messiah onboard to soften the blow as the black 'n' white
Titanic makes its dark and scary voyage into the
Championship.
Spotted!
Jose Mourinho
SPEECHLESS!
For perhaps the first time in his entire gobby life Inter Milan
boss and self appointed 'Special One' was left speechless. The
amazing incident occurred on an Italian show called Chiambretti
Nights where the usually outspoken Mourinho sat struggling to keep
his eyes off the half-naked model as she danced in front of
him.
Look at Jose's embarrassment here:

'Arry Redknapp quote of the week
"Alex Ferguson is not a great coach. Nor is Arsene Wenger or Rafael
Benitez. Guus Hiddink is not doing anything at Chelsea that the
players haven't done before."
Of course they are not, and that is why Taggart, The
Spanish waiter, Wenger and Hiddink have won 13 League titles, 10 FA
Cups and 4 Champions League Trophy's between them and you 'Arry
have won the FA Cup, once.
