Andy ‘Blue' Gray's Euro away leg (over)

One thing you can always say of the Bluenose – He is consistent. His oat sowing has never diminished as The People bring us all the sordid details of Andy's latest romps on the Costa last week:

‘TOP telly soccer commentator Andy Gray betrayed his best mate by sneaking away for secret hotel sex sessions with his stunning wife, The People can reveal.

The former international player - now Britain's best-paid football pundit on Sky - spent a night of passion in a five-star Spanish hotel with blonde ex-model Rachel Lewis.'

MV's only worry is who is going to tell long time lover Richard Keys of ‘Randy Andy's' latest foray in to loveratdom!

You (maybe) Heard it Here Folks

March 29: The Sportsman reports that Niall Quinn is set to head a takeover bid for Sunderland. March 30: The Times and The Guardian report that Niall Quinn is set to head a takeover bid for Sunderland. March 31: Harry Harris reveals in a Daily Express back page exclusive that Niall Quinn is set to head a takeover bid for Sunderland.

All this and Media-View was reporting the possibility of ‘big' Niall going to Sunderland on the 9th March. However, MV will agree with anyone that says we're not a bona-fide journo!!

From Crazy Horse to Crazy Woman

From thisislocallondon.co.uk:

'Dead football star Emlyn Hughes is using a former policewoman to contact Liverpool FC manager Rafa Benitez.'
'Stephany Cohen says the spirit of the former England and Liverpool captain has contacted her. She says he is desperate to speak to the European Cup-winning manager and wants her to set up a meeting.

'Three years ago the 45-year-old featured in News Shopper, sister newspaper of This Is Local London, when she revealed aliens called "Grays" were giving her orgasms. (Has this woman been to Puerto Banus recently?!?!) 'Miss Cohen is still in touch with the extraterrestrial Casanovas but says her present priority is to meet with Spaniard Mr Benitez.
'She has emailed Liverpool FC telling them Question of Sport star Mr Hughes, who was nicknamed Crazy Horse, has something important to say.'

Now the big question is what exactly does Emlyn want to say to Rafa and does it include any reference to selling Djimi Traore??? Answers on a postcard please.

Question of the Day 1

Just how annoying was The Hawthorns Stadium Announcer??

End of the road for the bionic man?

It seems Rafa sees no way back for glass bodied ‘keeper Chris Kirkland, who injured a finger during a loan spell at West Brom.

“We will talk to him and his agent to see if we can find a solution”. Rafa said.

MV's suggestion is give him to the US Military and re-launch his career as the new $6million man. However other readers may agree with MV that even they couldn't rebuild him!!

Wisely chosen Words? Following Swansea Pie-eater in chief Lee Trundles celebratory T-shirt no-no, South Wales Police Chief Superintendent Bob Evans declared, "I am aware of the incidents and I certainly take a very dim view of what happened.”

‘Lee Trundle' and ‘dim' hmmm probably not the first time this link has been made!!!

How quickly they forget Old Mr Nasal Trev Francis (not usually one to get things wrong - errr well, OK he is) was at his accurate best again at the weekend when he stated during the Chelski v Spud Face select XI bore draw:
"It's a good effort, but it'll take something special to beat Maik Taylor at his near post."
It seems Trev hasn't watched a lot of football lately, as the one thing a shot doesn't have to be to beat Taylor is special. Just ask ‘Thunder shot' Cisse and ‘in off the shoulder Sammi'.

Flip – Flops and Cold Feet

Good to see that git James Nesbitt from those annoying Yellow Pages ad's sticking to his guns. He famously gave £10k to the anti –Glazer campaign last year but now is happy to take the ginger recluse's Dollars to advertise ‘Prawn Sandwich' priced seats at Old Nafford. I really hope in these new ad's they employ a Doberman that will go ahead and bite his bo**ox.

Question of the Day 2

Are there any more former ManYoo Blacksox players currently managing in the Premier League that The Red's can play this season?? Oohhhh yes there is!!

MV is definitely looking forward to the trip to Ewood Park. It's just a pity their newest fan Condoleeza Rice won't be there to watch, but MV suspects she has more important things to do.

More rumours rubbish and downright lies next week – (possibly)
