“Jermaine Pennant - you said you were a top class footballer! Well the results are back and they show .......... that you were lying....”.Originally posted by red g View PostJermaine Pennant gone from Champions league final to being on Jeremy Kyle today
What a waste still only 35."That's how I found myself on the Kop that day I had my blue-and-white scarf safely tucked away inside my coat as I listened to Liverpool songs and swayed with the masses.
Then City scored and I screeched and this big bloke, a Liverpool supporter, made towards me and I thought he was going to throttle me. But he just pulled my scarf from under my coat so it lay on the outside, and said: "You should always be proud of your colours, lad."

Remember what he said in his autobiographyOriginally posted by Buzzo View Post
When I joined, the guy interviewing me said 'you've joined the biggest club in the country' and reeled off the trophies they'd won". I just said 'yeah, if you put it like that, I suppose you're right' and Liverpool used that as the headline to the interview.
I didn't want to upset anyone so I just went along with it. But obviously they're not the biggest club in the country any more. How do you judge how big a club are? Nottingham Forest won the European Cup twice but they're not a bigger club than Chelsea.
They were incredibly up their own arses and overbearing when it came to nannying their own players. They wouldn't even let me smoke. I remember getting in my car at Melwood after training and lighting a ciggie when some arsehole on the staff came running up to me, waving his arms about. He was going "Joe! Joe! Put it out! We really don't want you smoking!". It got on my nerves to be honest. I don't know who they think they are, acting all Billy Big Bollocks. I'd just put 110% into a gruelling session and they're carrying on like that, acting like my Mum or something. I know smoking isn't ideal but we're normal people, not robots, and loads of other players smoked. Wazza (Rooney) smoked, so I got on the blower to him to ask if Man United were happy to let him smoke. He said Everton used to buy him and all the other players packs of 200 fags every week to keep them happy, even the players who didn't smoke, but at United he wasn't allowed.Thanks very much for being ‘This Mornings’ Farmer’
