Quoted from Henryscat


I'm not sure if I'm biting here but wasn't he Greek/Roman


Yes, I was fishing a bit. He probably never existed but, if he had, he never visited our sceptred isle. Or Catalonia or possibly Georgia and Croatia (I think). He's the slut of the patron saint world. Everyone has had him.

Wasn't he Libyan or Turkish (or at least from either what is now Libya or Anatolia - the latter might explain the Georgia link)?


Through the door there came familiar laughter,
I saw your face and heard you call my name.
Oh my friend we're older but no wiser,
For in our hearts the dreams are still the same.

He was damn well born and bred in Hackney, heard one day that a dragon was after torching a poor princess tied up in Surrey or somewhere similar. He rode out on a unicorn, through the dragon fire and chopped up the dragon into kebabs, well known story.
Saying it isn't true is akin to burning a fiver or drawing a porntache on a stamp, hanging offence in our street.


I was there, the day Bradley Wood scored a 35 yarder!

From the black and white striped shirts
To the fish in the sea
You'll hear us singing
Coz we are Grimsby.

You won't hear us crying
But you'll hear us shout
Coz we are the Grimsby
And this is our chant.......... Grimsby! Grimsby! Grimsby!

Yes I'm sure he was Turkish


I don't mind Roy Keane making £60,000 a week. I was making the same when I was playing. The only difference was I was printing my own - Mickey Thomas

The area you are trying to protect at corners is the goal - Chris Kamara

I once said Gazza's IQ was less than his shirt number and he asked me: What's an IQ? - George Best
