    Funnily, he is coming in next week with his new manager as she wants a machine :)

    ...I just said to @fatletiss that I may let her keep my Euro 96 grey England shirt in her car for a few weeks :)

    Yep, she said that. She said he is crazy, but really charming and looks well. Told her all about his health battles and says he feels he is out the other side <ok><ok>

    Hope so, one of the greatest footballers in the last 50 or so years

    He used to live just round the corner from my old man in Boscombe. Often chatted with him, but he wasn't in a good place there, always ready to fall it seemed.

    Controversial on this club board, but the most talented Englishman I’ve ever seen play in my lifetime.

    Deserved a winner’s medal in 1996 just for that goal against Scotland.

    And would have got it if Venables had selected the second most talented Englishman I’ve seen,

    Can't remember who it was who said it, maybe Shearer, but apparently during Euro '96 Gazza would put Three Lions on a boombox and wake everyone up every day at 6am to go training.

    That's my kinda guy.

    Google it, it’s true. I think I got that from Ferdinand or someone’s autobiography
