But if it wasn't for the fact that football teams play with a goalkeeper Falcao would have scored a hattrick

He must fill the bbcs disability quota

Valencia?

This is my favourite ever Crooks comment:


FORWARD - WAYNE ROONEY (Man Utd)

I was speaking to my uncle Ben on Saturday and said that Aaron Ramsey was almost certain to be the unanimous choice for footballer of the year. He took the glass of champagne out of my hand and said: 'You mean Wayne Rooney, don't you?' I told him that he had made a very good point and promptly went home.

Falcao in this week's is probably one of the most laughable choices he's made since he started this thing. There have been plenty to choose from but this one stands out.

Somebody had it spot on in another thread. Fair play to Garth, he's a moron but he gets paid large sums of money to type a load of crap on the internet. Wish I could say the same.

agreed.

There was something he said on final score around 18 months ago which stood out though, it was truly remarkable, unfortunately I'm struggling to remember. Will do some digging.

it doesn't even mean anything, it's just bollócks!

Not the Uncle Ben that does the rice is it?

Maybe he's imagining Uncle Ben on the rice packet is talking to him. I mean his football choices already make you think he's suffering from dementia.

Probably was on crack in his bedsit talking to a packet of rice with a can of Super Strength Lager

Didn't he once campaign for West Brom's James Morrison to be in the England squad, saying if he played for a Top 4 team he would have been picked.

This was despite the fact that Morrison had already 25 caps for Scotland

brilliant

Oh got it, his views on goalline technology, on two seperate occasions:

1. After West Brom are awarded an equaliser against Fulham by goal-line technology.

"Maarten Stekelenburg should really have held on to that shot from Matej Vydra. He'd played well before that as well. To be honest. I'm not a fan of goal-line technology. We never used to have it and I think the game was fine without it. Football shouldn't be all about science!"

2. During Fulham - Newcastle

" It couldn't have gone over the line, otherwise the referee would have got a bleep in his ear. But i'm against technology- the decision of the referee's and his decision should be final. Forget what you want to see, we've gone with the technology all you technophiles wanted and we've got to abide by it"

He obviously has no grasp on technology and just writes his team in scribbles on the back of the paper, and some poor BC intern has to decipher it and make it legible on the website.

Anyone else remember his James Morrison for England fiasco?
