i met denis irwin and jim beglin in a boozer after the US friendly a few years ago. i was after coming from the match and those two were doing telly. everyone was wanting to talk to irwin, cos they're all fucking manure fans (although he is a legend to be fair) so poor Jim was on his own. he had a forlorn expression and plonked himself next to where i was sitting. i'm a proper red so jim was a bit of a hero to me back in the day.
i asked him what he thought of all this man u lark, and straight from the horses mouth he said....

"well lets face it, you can't win em all."
good ol Jim.

I remeber Newstalk 106 counted around 12 cliches in a minute long interview with sol campbell

as i said at the end of the day i'm in the big chair but the gaffer gave us a bit of a rollicking there and you just go out there and you try to enjoy yourself, but the lads done great there, lolipop, front post, howzat? yea, no, i thought we were on the canvas there, but i didn't see the incident and if i had the resources that they have then we wouldn't be standing here questioning that decision, there's so much money at stake it's like a game of chess and the carrot at the end of the tunnel is my babies going on a big adventure, and you askeyourself, where's the third eye? a player like that just gives you something extra, isn't it. top drawer, no, topper than that. boys own stuff.

I absolutely love the way almost every footballer on the planet refuses to speak well of their own performances on the pitch. Has any footballer (at least Premiership based) every taken a compliment?

I mean, if your own boss came up to you at the end of a busy day and said well done, sure you'd be a bit embarassed, but you'd say something along the lines of "Oh, cool. Thanks v. much!"

But everytime an interviewer says something nice like "You had one of your better games out there today, Joe Cole! You gave them a torrid time. Well done." The answer is FUCKING ALWAYS "Well, it was a team effort... blah blah blah."

I'd love it if one day Thierry Henry said something like "Yeah, I'm the fucking shit."

remember when stevie g passed that ball to henry at highbury earlier in the season and he came down and the interviewer said you'r some man for talking to us after that and he went, yeah, i dicked up, my mistake blah blah, i thought, fair play to ya.

however, the cunt dived like an owen last night for that peno
