Football gossip

Rat faced England football captain John Terry hired top chef Marco Pierre White to cook a meal at a cost of thousands of pounds. What did he ask for? Steak and Prawn Cocktail! This proves that a) John Terry has more money than taste and b) that Marco Pierre White is a pretentious git for complaining that his skills were being wasted.

In other news the BBC have positively discriminated against shrieking football commentator Jacqui Oatley by fast tracking her to become a commentator for Match of The Day. This is PC hell. I've heard her commentate and she is just rubbish. Not because she is a woman, not because I fear change just because she is really bad and has an annoying voice. Gabby Logan is great as a presenter, a good journalist and belongs in football. Not Jacqui Oatley. There are some good commentators (Mark Lawrenson always spots things before I do) and some bad ones (droning sit on the fence man John Motson) and some compete dead ends (Mark Bright and David Pleat) and I think Jacqui Oatley belongs with the latter based on her Radio 5 performances. Shame on the BBC and credibility points deducted.
