Well now, when it comes to football, one man has for many years been the most noticeable, the most controversial, and occasionally the most successful blogger this country has ever produced. His pithy words and abrasive style make him as famous off the pitch as he is on it. This man is Escapini. "I love football. Football she's a cruel mistress. She's, she's more than a mistress. She's a wife, she's a mother, she's a daughter, she's an errant child. She's a… she's a… she can make you laugh, she make you cry. She can bring tears me eyes. She can bring blood to me shoulders. She can bring a kettle to the boil." "Cause football is about nothing, unless it's about something and what it is about, is football."

Manchester City Football Club

Manchester City Fans Plan Daft Protest

Manchester City have been living in the shadows of the big clubs for too long it seems. Some of their supporters are hatching a second rate plan to get in on the coat tails of both Liverpool and Manchester United.

Manchester City have never sold so many scarves in their history since the arrival of the dapper don, Mancini. Nor incidentally have they enjoyed such an inspiring season in recent times.

But that is all to change if the looney tunes at Eastlands get their way. The scheme is to snub the scraves in an anti Mancini move.

And their catchphrase? “No more blue and white, Cos Mancini is sh*te”

The mastermind behind this claims to be pally with the producer of Match Of The Day 2 and he has allegedly agreed to send Kevin Day down to do a piece on it.

Mmmmn. Nice work boys. I guess this is one campaign anyone can join no matter how skint they are.

I’m currently boycotting Ferrari this week, by not driving one. In case you were wondering.
