Robin Friday. There is a great book about him. Of all the things he did, I think the funniest is during a Brighton vs Cardiff game getting sent off for kicking Lawro (yes, that one) in the face, then instead of going back to his team Cardiff's dressing room he went into the Brighton one and shat in Larwo's kit bag before leaving the ground on his own. He got sacked for that and retired from football aged 25. Mario Balotelli eat your heart out.

I know the Furries song and have just ordered the book from Amazon - I have £5 left from a gift card from Xmas. Cheers :)

I've got Athletico Madrid, Napoli and Barcelona on a treble bet tonight. The first two won with Napoli coming from 1-0 down to win 2-1 with just minutes to go and I'm waiting on Barcelona... and they're 1-0 down away at Osasuna. Barcelona you bastards.

He is Reading's greatest ever player. He once scored a goal so good that even the ref burst into applause when it went in.

My Dad has loads of stories about him, he was blind drunk during most games and that was just the half of it.

I used to have a great Robin Friday T-shirt when I was at school.

A picture of him wheeling away in half-arsed celebration and the quote "On the pitch I hate all opponents. I don't give a damn about anyone. People think I'm mad, a lunatic. I am a winner."

What a lad.

Yeah what mess ? everything is awesome at Blackburn atm.

Its rather scary when your team is staring over the edge off a cliff and barely anyone seems to be noticing but anyways...

A section of your fans have really helped to try and finish your club off this season and should be ashamed of their behaviour.

Every fan has the right to protest about the way their club is run if they don't like it, but the way its been done at Blackburn has been poor form.

That is from the guy orgainsing the protests for Blackburn Rovers fans.

We are trying to fight what happened to Portsmouth happening to us. That being foreign owners who have not got a clue fucking over a local club. We have every right to fight.

Of course you do but the horrible abuse directed at Steve Kean has been vile and unnecessarily personal.

I do not agree with personal abuse aimed at Steve Kean or his family.

Every club has idiots supporting them and those few at Rovers do not represent the majority.

Sadly for himself he has insulted the majority of our fans at every opportunity. Including such ridiculousness as blaming Blackburn fans for spiking his drink when he was caught on a drink driving charge. He has done nothing to win us over whilst having one of the worst win-loss records in the 135 year history of the club.

Our owners are even worse but that is another story.

Edit- Carlos Valderrama have a listen to the link I posted. You posted 3 mins after I did so I am guessing you did'nt.

Kean's lawyers claimed in court he was spiked in a stalwart Rovers pub. The claim was thrown out of court and he was charged.

Fans who were there say the pub was nothing but Rovers fans. There may well have been some rouge, crazy Burnley fan [where were you Plissken?] but its most likely Kean is full of shit.

Thanks for the link.

Hmmmm...it sounds to me like that has been twisted a little to make it more emotive.

The drink spiking excuse is lame, though. What a plonker.

I liked his claim that he wouldnt know if his Bud had been spiked with Gin, Vodka or Whisky because he didnt drink those spirits. Hardly the greatest defence.

Good win today though - Fulham could be in a bit of trouble this year.
