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."

Spurs Have Begun Talks For Right Back

The news will be well received by some and er… just received by others. Micah Richards is the chap.

This won’t blow anyone’s socks off. After all, his name has been mooted before today, but our man in Manchestershire got in touch this morning to tell us that the chitter chatter was indeed well placed and a deal is being brokered.

A figure of £9 million has been speculated before now and our man has no additional information to assert if this is figure is wrong or right.

For me (to quote Alan Shearer) the Micah Richards is about as a tantalizing prospect as Emil Heskey. Here’s a question, is Micah a Champions League player?

Answers on a postcard, although you maybe able to send the word, NO in on something smaller.
