So whatever happened to innocent until proven guilty? If I was John Terry, I would tell the Football Association where to stuff their England shirt.

Will Morrison’s Career UnRavel At Upton Park?
Posted on 02 February 2012.
Sorry about the headline but the pun was irresistible. On paper it looks a fantastic deal. £650,000 upfront is chicken feed in the big scheme of things, and apparently the wages are not that huge if the “wonderkid” doesn’t perform to expectations. If the fee does rise to closer to £3m then great, that means…

What a great big oaf. According to Allardyce, he “didn’t see last night’s result coming”. So what team has he been watching play since the beginning of December exactly? Not the same West Ham I have been watching! Was he at Reading? I was. And we were crap. Truly, truly crap. …
