England world cup in CRISIS

you right i didnt even realise, do you know how many of them have been penalties? I cant find that anywhere

He will but I'd still much rather take him than Carrick or Barry, to be fair I think this squad is nowhere near as good as our 2006 squad was on paper

Re. the Gerrard rumour: http://timesonline.typepad.com/theg...-of-internet-gossips-a-shameful-practice.html

I'd rag Curran all over like.

rumours are all part of the celeb lifestyle, being a footballer is great when you're picking up £80,000 a week, then all of a sudden its "terrible" when people make rumours up about you?

blokes love a bit of football gossip, be it true or false. for every text i get thats a load of bollocks someone like carroll/ taylor, ashley cole or john terry will do it for real. i'm all for "soap opera football"

"Please let this be true? Please let this decent man see his family life ripped apart because he happens to be a footballer playing for a club other than your own? Is that how far we have sunk? As a football-loving nation, have we actually reached the stage where we hate footballers?"

I stopped reading at that bit.

If it is true then it wouldn't be a "decent man's life being ripped apart" Not that he's decent anyway./ If it's true he's been getting 16 year olds pregnant behind his wife's back, hardly the trait of a role model is it? (Fair enough she's been getting about it if it true)

Add to the fact he was in court last year and got off scott free because he was acting in self defence when him and 6 mates stuck one too one lad on his own in a bar.

Brilliant footballer? yes, Decent man? Possibly not.
