        I once went on a date with Shakespeare's sister . She wasn't up to much.

        His wife was though. She wasn't a classic beauty but she hath a way about her.

        True story.

        Suppose you have a physicist and a sociologist standing at the side of a field, observing a set of events unfolding on the field. The physicist does [describes] it using the terminology of mass and velocity and frequency of radiation and the rest. And the sociologist does it by describing it as a rugby match.

          Her out of Bananarama? Good work

          AS it happens I've had a soft spot for butch ever since I heard him describe McManaman as having taken a defender and "sold him for a kipper" no idea what it means but I like it. He also uses the excellent phrase "sent him for a pie" quite often. It's that style of folkie commentary that the likes of Merson just don't get.

          As for the BNP stuff, well, obviously it's just rumour but having played for Chelsea and coached at Chelsea I would have been more surprised if he hadn't been a secret fascist of some sort. Is it not a prerequisite if you want to work for them?
          A lot of people run a race to see who is fastest. I run to see who has the most guts, who can punish himself into exhausting pace, and then at the end, punish himself even more.

              It was lucky really because I'd totally missed what had happened. I mean I watched it but couldn't comprehend it until Mr Horne was on hand to explain what had happened.

                Chelsea name Michael Emenalo as Wilkins' successor as assistant coach

                • Michael Emenalo promoted by Chelsea to fill Ray Wilkins' job
                • Nigerian assistant coach was head opposition scout

                * Press Association
                * guardian.co.uk, Thursday 18 November 2010 17.55 GMT

                Michael Emenalo has been appointed Chelsea's assistant first-team coach following the departure of Ray Wilkins last week. Emenalo had been working as head opposition scout for the club since October 2007 but will now make the transition to coaching.

                Chelsea confirmed the move on their official website: "Chelsea Football Club are pleased to announce the appointment of Michael Emenalo to the position of assistant first-team coach. He moves up from his previous position of head opposition scout.

                "Michael has been an important part of the first-team management structure since he arrived in October 2007, and his promotion to assistant first-team coach is recognition of his efforts to date.

                "Michael will continue to oversee the first-team scouting operation as he makes the transition to coaching. He will split the initial period between assisting first-team coach Carlo Ancelotti and updating his coaching qualifications as he takes on this bigger and more influential role."

                Emenalo, a former Nigeria international, was brought to the club by the former manager Avram Grant and, along with the first-team coach Paul Clement, was among the favourites to replace Wilkins as Chelsea looked to appoint from within.

                "Michael Emenalo is doing a fantastic job as head opposition scout and he is already working very close to me," Ancelotti said.

                Emenalo, 42, was a defender during his playing days and became known to Grant during their time at Maccabi Tel Aviv. In 1986 he moved to the US, where he graduated from Boston University three years later with a degree in international relations with political sciences, having also played college soccer.

                He also played in Belgium and Germany before winning the Anglo-Italian Cup with Notts County. He won 14 caps for Nigeria and played in the 1994 World Cup in the US.

                Chelsea are still waiting to learn when John Terry will be available again. The captain is understood to have seen a chiropractor in Italy yesterday to try to solve a troublesome nerve problem in his right leg.

                Terry has been left in agony by the injury, which has been managed during the season with a series of injections. The club hope he might be fit for the game with Newcastle on November 28.

                Chelsea are relatively unconcerned by Alex's selection as a substitute for Brazil against Argentina last night. The defender, who is likely to be out for up to eight weeks with a knee injury, did not play.

                Alex missed Chelsea's games against Fulham and Sunderland due to his injury but joined his national side for the game in Qatar. He was due to return to the club's training ground at Cobham today for more treatment. It is likely he will undergo further investigation via arthroscopic surgery.
