Emile Heskey - surely Mandaric should bring him back

[bocadillo]

Anyway, here's a bet for you. I've just stuck £15,000 at 3-1 on Steven Gerrard saying 'eeeehhhhm' at least 2,000 times in televised interviews this season.

Don't believe you. I want to see the betting slip.

I'm putting £20,000 at 4-1 that your bet fails.

Emile Drinking game! (Slightly out of date but hey ho!).

THE RULES.

Emile is seen walking anywhere on the pitch - three fingers of alcohol

Emile is seen sprinting anywhere on the pitch - four fingers of alcohol

Emile pulls a face reminicent of Eyore from Winnie the Pooh because he hasn't been given the ball - Three fingers of alcohol

Reference is made to Emile's previous playing days under Martin O'Neill - Last one to shout out 'FOXES' has to down their drink

Emile's ability to 'hold up the ball' is mentioned - Three fingers of alcohol

Emile comes back to defend a free kick/corner and makes a defensive mare - Last one to shout out 'DONKEY' drinks four fingers of alcohol

Emile falls over (anywhere on the pitch) - half of all drinks must be downed
that would get you pissed

Emile heads the ball in a directionless fashion, aimed for no one in particular resulting in the ball going out of play - 3 shots

Emile scores - all drinks must be downed.

If Emile's England days are brought up by a commentator - 1 shot

If Emile's potential as a candidate for South Africa are brought up - 3 shots

Every time Martin O'Neill repeats the same tactical substitution of Emile for 'Big John' Carew at around the 70th minute - Everyone must down their drinks followed by a standing ovation.

Emile misses a sitter or trips over the ball - 3 shots

'Three fingers of alcohol'??? Eh?

'Three fingers of alcohol'??? Eh?

Known in Cov as "half a hand of alcohol".

i asume its three fingers wrapped around a glass about 2 inches or so, (6 if the mrs asks!)

 

[Macky]

I think it means you've to dip three fingers in your glass and suck them

That's about it. Quite a common term over here. Three fingers equates to about a double shot.

At first I thought no, what we would want Heskey for? But then I thought, he woul probably love to play for his home town team again, and would be well up for it. Not the most rediculous idea I have seen. On the hand his wages might be excessive. As you can see I'm on the fence about it.

So you don't think he's good enough to play for us?

But then I thought, he woul probably love to play for his home town team again, and would be well up for it.

But because he's "up for it", we'll take him?

On the hand his wages might be excessive.

But now we can't afford him?

As you can see I'm on the fence about it.

I'd say confused.
