Bellamy too can play football on his day; heaven forbid even the Ferdinand's have been known to play classy football.


But it's the inconsistency and laziness that comes with huge egomaniacal, spoilt brats that I take issue with.

Give me a Solskjaer over a Bellamy, a Yossi over a Dyer a (Stuart) Pearce over a(n Ashley) Cole any day of the week.

To be a Libran about this* and to balance criticism of Ashley Cole, one could never accuse him of being lazy. A damn fine player. Unfortunately his egomania and greed exceed even the standards set by the others mentioned


* ie try and be un-biased but purely because of who I am and not because of the bleedin month I was born

    • I think it's a good idea and follows the example of other towns/areas. As it says in the article, the area around the main tourist attractions in Southwark, that is The Globe, Southwark Cathedral, Tate Modern and the whole walking route from London Bridge to Blackfriars, takes a lot of maintaining and it shouldn't be a burden on regular council tax payers like us.
