Escapini
By Escapini

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."

Tevez Could Face Heavy Fine

On Saturday, The World Player of the Year Lionel Messi ran over to a TV camera to lift up his shirt and reveal the words “HAPPY BIRTHDAY MAMI” on his undershirt after scoring in Barca’s 3-0 win over Racing Santander.

The player wasn’t cautioned on the pitch but the celebration was mentioned in the referee’s report and as a result Messi was retrospectively fined and awarded a yellow.

As Carlos Tevez has form for this type of celebration we’d like to hear your suggestions for a funny message the striker might get nicked for.

Best one of the day wins a copy of The Pocket Book Of Manchester City by Andy Buckley.

Packed with original pictures, hand-drawn illustrations and genuine Man City memorabilia, this beautifully packaged book salutes the greatest goals (who can forget Georgi Kinkladze’s weaving run against Southampton in 1996?), legendary managers and tactics of the club’s most successful teams, as well as the most memorable kits worn over the years – yes, that includes the AC Milan look of 1969.
