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."

Pat Jennings!

This just in from our man with £3.75 left on his book voucher gift card and an egg sandwich in his coat pocket…

There is a pretty unique opportunity to meet Pat Jennings tomorrow at Waterstones, Enfeld. As many of you may be aware, Pat is just one of many pals of The Super Fan, Maurice Heston.

Maurice’s book has only just been released and after some extensive bargaining, I have secured Tavern readers an opportunity to win a copy of Superfan, hand signed by the legendary Mr Jennings.

The quiz question is: Maurice Heston’s book has a photo of Maurice and which famous celebrity on it’s cover?

A] Ali

B] Ali G

C] Ali Campbell
