What a Whore-ible Man

32
Despite sporting a very classy new tattoo sleeve on his left arm, Craig Bellamy is still an unpleasant piece of work; it's cute that he wants to be as street as D. Beck, but ultimately he's just a shit. This week then the West Ham striker continued on his mission to alienate as many people in the UK as humanly possible, after getting involved in a row with Ipswich fans as he was substituted at Monday night's game.

Craig Bellamy fights with girls

2
This guy is like the Pac-Man Jones of the Premiership.

The latest is that the West Hammer verbally abused a female Ipswich Town fan during a friendly match recently.
"With him being an ex-Norwich player I shouted 'see you later Bellamy' and he just turned around and swore at me and he said something about prostitutes in Ipswich.

Darren Bent in household pet murder shocker!

2
Ok, so Darren Bent scoring 4 times at a Championship side doesn't do a lot to ease the pain of losing your club's Player of the Year for 3 of the last 5 years, but it does give us a ray of hope.

At Norwich last night, Bent played in a lone role with Giovanni Dos Santos in behind. This is the type of position Bent was so successful with at Charlton and I feel it's the kind of formation that could serve us very well away from home, an area which has cost us Champions League football in recent seasons.

Video: Darren Huckerby Subject to Worst Interview of the Day

2. That's a video of a goal vs. Norwich, not Manchester United

£85mil for Torres?
