Just in case you'd forgotten...

Questions to ask yourself while watching this video:

1. Why has Steve McClaren forgotten about his grammar?
2. Why is Steve McClaren speaking in a different accent?
3. Why does Steve McClaren sound like a cross between Martin Jol and a character from Allo Allo?
4. Why is Steve McClaren talking this way when the interviewer's English is perfect?
5. How did this man ever become England manager?
6. How did this man ever become England manager?
7. How did this man ever become England manager?
8. How did this man ever become England manager?

The Yank funnyman knows nothing about football.

A typical Chelsea fan then...


If you thought Will Ferrell's comedy was funny, then his taste in football teams is even funnier. Appearing on Jon Stewart's Daily Show, you know the programmee you sometimes catch yourself watching on More4, Ferrell was with fellow chuckle brother John C. Reilly to promote their new movie, Step Brothers. Which, if it's anything like their last film together, Talladega Nights, we know we'll be rushing out to see. And when we say "rushing", what we mean is we'd sooner watch a sex tape featuring David Mellor, Phil Taylor and Anne Widdicombe. With a Max Mosley cameo of course.

Anyway, bizarrely, Ferrell was wearing a Chelsea shirt on the show, though we're not quite shure why. What we do know is though, that with stonewash jeans and a damn fine beer gut, he wouldn't look too out of place on most British terraces.

Thanks to Unprofessional Foul for the screenshot. And to see some Will Ferrell stuff we do love, check out his spoof Old Spice adverts...

We drive to Euro 2008, and back...


So here’s the story: The other day the chaps at Fiat gave us a call, inviting us to take part in their Bravo Challenge. It would involve taking one of their new Fiat Bravo’s, driving it anywhere we want, and bringing it back within 48 hours. And they’d give us £250 to spend on what we liked too. Well, we’re not likely to turn a chance like that down are we? So we leave this Friday, with our return date penciled in for Sunday. And our planned destination? Basle, Switzerland, in time for the Euro 2008 quarter final on Saturday. We say planned, because who knows where we’ll end up. Though if Fiat are reading, you have nothing to worry about…

Replaced as the official ball to the premier League in 2000, with Nike claiming the ball was 'Rounder', as well as faster and more responsive off the player’s foot. Almost immediately, it made headlines for it's alleged unpredictability and erratic swerve, with 'keepers all over the country complaining that it was making them look silly. Any Excuse...

 

Best remebered for:

Because of the randomness the ball’s flight, there were a few crackers swerving in from all over the pitch. But Dennis Bergkamp's world-class turn and finish against Newcastle owed nothing to luck, and rightly won Goal of the Season...
