Aren't footballers clever

I thought he claimed to be a 'Godhead' figure as in the new son of God?

True, which is one up from the pope, isn't it?

He was, and he's as barkin' as they come.

Is he the equivalent of a pope in his religion?

Wasn't he obsessed with some colour like cyan as well?

Wasn't David Icke a goal keeper also?

Ah yes! you are right W - it was the last Pope. Silly me, I lose track of my popes.

Pavarrotti and the Pope were both pro goal keepers too. I bet Pavarotti would still be a great goalkeeper as he would fill most of the goal mouth.

Do you mean the current pope?

I know the old deceased Polish pope was a goalie in his youth, but I wasn't aware of the German's pedigree as guardian of the onion bag.

Apparently Neville Southall´s old goalkeeping coach told him

"To be a good goalkeeper, you need two qualities, you have to be daft and you have to be crackers, you have enough of those two qualities to take you into the national side"

and Albert Camus

And che Guevara (yes, really!)
and julio iglesias, and wasn't henry kissinger a goalkeeper too?
It's right what they say 'you have to be mad to be a goalkeeper'!

Probably the opposite. Forget the details but read somewhere in the theory about why why there are so many left handed tennis stars that thought is actually an impediment to instinctive fast reaction. Maybe they should give a team lobotomies and see if the theory is sound.

Some academic has written a paper saying that Beckham is a genius. Something to do with fast calculation of space and time and all that sort of thing.

Apparently Einstien was a brilliant footballer as a lad. Yes, really (not made up for effect - he really was).

The opposition were a bit miffed when the ball vanished into an alternative dimension from time to time, but they soon got used to it.

The Ref was a Mister Heisenberg, who decided that you could be both off-side and on-side at the same instant, depending on how his cat was feeling.

Many happy Saturday afternoons!

Chelsea are playing in white tonight, against a team in Chelsea's normal colours. You'd think they would be passing to the opposition and kicking lumps out of their team-mates thinking they were Leeds.

Same for Man Utd last night.
