To the tune of Yesterday

Bell-a-my
Has a penchant for kar-aok-e
He said to Riise "sing along with me"
But ol' Johnny
Refused you see

So Bell-a-my
Broke into his room at half past three
With a putter made by Odyssey
And tried to make
A two-ball, three

Why John would not sing I don't know, he wouldn't say,
May-be, his voice is crap, or perhaps he thinks it's ga-a-a-ay

Brilliant!!

15 players fined?

http://www.football365.com/story/0,17033,8652_1929708,00.html

Rafa Benitez is reported to have fined 15 Liverpool players who broke a midnight curfew during the squad's boozy end to their five-day trip to Portugal last week.

The Liverpool manager is incensed that preparations for the Champions League tie with Barcelona have been overshadowed by reports of drunken brawls and has already fined striker Craig Bellamy two weeks' wages for attacking John Arne Riise.

'With the exception of Jamie Carragher, who returned home for a funeral, the rest of the 22-man squad were drinking in the exclusive Monty's Bar and Restaurant, and failed to beat their midnight curfew. Benitez will impose fines on 15 of the players - but refused to identify the culprits and does not want to comment any more on the trip,' reports The Daily Mirror.

Although Bellamy is expected to start against the Spanish champions, his days at Anfield appear to be numbered.

According to The Daily Telegraph, his latest brush with controversy has convinced Benitez to offload the Welsh striker at the end of the season.

'The former Newcastle striker's prospects under Benitez now appear non-existent as a result of his clash with Riise. Bellamy's mediocre form for Liverpool since his arrival last summer, which has brought a return of eight goals in 31 appearances, has disappointed Benitez and the possibility of him being sold was already on the agenda before the events in Portugal,' the newspaper reports.

Having inspired the best season of his troubled career, Blackburn manager Mark Hughes is expected to offer Bellamy a Premiership lifeline. However, The Sun says that Aston Villa manager Martin O'Neill, who signed Bellamy on loan two years ago for Celtic, 'will make an £8million move for the player.'

Who do we think was 'innocent' then ?

Purely guesswork of course, but I'd say...

Gerrard, Crouch, Kuyt, Masher, Alonso, Agger and maybe one or two others...

According to some Pennant and Fowler are innocent and Alonso, Sissoko and Gonzo, Dudek, Bellamy and Riise are the others to be fined.

I can assure you that Xabi drinks, I've seen him out in Liverpool a couple of times. Never seen him cause trouble though.

I don't think it's a case of causing trouble though. I've heard he likes a drink to. From what I've been told Bellamy, Risse and Dudek were the ones causing a bit of bother and the other broke a curfew and that's why they have been fined.

That's what I meant. I don't think he would have caused any trouble but I could see that he may break curfew, not much wrong with that though IMO, its not as if we had a game the next day.
