In recognition of Sir Alex Ferguson’s contribution to Manchester United they’ve named a stand at Old Trafford after him. Nice, but would you really want to sit in the ‘Grumpy Scottish Arsehole stand?’
Football remains in the spotlight for all the wrong reasons as John Terry, the Chelsea and England captain, is being investigated for a racist comment allegedly made to Queen’s Park Ranger’s Anton Ferdinand. Despite this he has still been named in the England squad to play Spain and Sweden next weekend, a decision generally defended by commentators on the ‘innocent until proven guilty’ basis. Bollocks. None of the arrogant, overpaid, lazy slobs that make up our collection of premiership footballers should ever be subject to the same human rights as the rest of us. Whether it’s Wayne Rooney, Joey Barton, Terry, or any of the other so called top ‘professionals’, their behaviour on the pitch week in, week out, gives the rest of society the right to do what the hell we want with them. As for the Terry incident, if the word ‘black’ hadn’t been included in his insult, would that have been OK then? Hardly role model material. Terry, you’re a ‘******* white ****’.
