Sitting in the pub on Saturday night having a few drinks with friends, it came to my attention that most people have a footballer that they hate. Not dislike, but genuinely, actually hate. Someone who’s mere mention results in the veins on the aggrieved person's head starting to throb and a cachophony of expletives coming out of their mouth.
The names that kept on coming up at the weekend were:
- John Terry
- Wayne Rooney
- Luis Suarez
- Carlos Tevez
- Joey Barton
- Joe Cole
Personally, I still can’t forgive the Brazilian player Rivaldo (currently on loan at Sao Paulo) for his infamous simulated dive in the 2002 World Cup that got a Turkish player sent off. For me it ranks as one of the worst moments of gamesmanship that I’ve ever seen in any sport and for that reason – and for that reason alone – I hate him.

Don't think I hate anyone else just now but I agree Rivaldo's dive was a terrible act but he was right beside the linesman who should have acted on it. Also John Terry and Ashley Cole are C***s

On a totally unrelated note..... Nicolas Anelka is signing for Chinese club Shanghai Shenshua in January. Money talks.
