Quoted from Captain Sensible


How can you know that if you don't watch it?


Gave watching it a go, I see clips on social media you know like a sensible normal person


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

For those interested England play Denmark at 9:30 this morning (BBC One)


When Leeds trainer Les Cocker was once told Norman Hunter had broken a leg, he asked: “Whose is it?”

I didn’t see it, but let me guess, aided by lamentable goalkeeping? It’s usually the Achilles heel of the women’s game, from what I’ve seen. Although I don’t doubt that Reece James’ sister is a good player, I’m sure she is.

If that’s Keira Walsh’s ACL, it’s a huge blow for her and England. She’s our best player.

I read two things recently that were really interesting. The first said that basically these injuries are far more prevalent in the women’s game and will continue often. The second thing I read was that apparently the game is inherently sexist because the women wear boots designed for men, and these are causing the injuries!

On your second point, is there a proven scientific difference between the structure of female and male feet?

No idea admittedly, but I cannot imagine that boots can prevent knee injuries, surely?

But either way, why is it up to the men’s game to develop boots for women to wear? Just seemed a bit weird to me.

In my youth I was one of Lincolnshire’s most renowned and revered foot models (Wynsors, Clarks, Norris The Rubberman). I still dip my toe in the foot fetish pool.

Differences between male and female feet include:

- size
- the hairy orbs of a man and hip mechanics mean that no tails tend to have a shorter stride and narrower gait
- tails are more prone to strike and leave the ground with a  flatter foot. Women are more likely to have more pressure and greater forces exerted on the outside of the foot and therefore, potentially less stability on the whole leg and foot blancmange
- mens feet are disgusting
-Steves Livingstones had the softest soles of any 90s Town player

It's not.

That would be the job of boot manufacturers, who have a growing market for such items.
