What do you mean 'it's been done'?

When I saw this photo of the England Captain this morning I was utterly lost for words (I know, for the first time!!). Billy Wright and Bobby Moore must have turned in their graves.
This guy is definitely an elephant short of a herd. Tosser!

My sentiments exactly Clarky; how can this tw@t be captain of our country; what were his captaining credentials, doesn't he realise he's supposed be a role model,...?

Bring back Roy Of the Rovers!

From The Torygraph:

So what about that haircut? Did he feel it was appropriate for an England captain to have a Mohican? "I don't think it matters," he said. "Being England captain is not about the way you look or what you do. Obviously, you have to conduct yourself properly on and off the pitch, but I don't think it's a problem. It's been made into more of a problem than it should be.*** Everyone is different. This is me. I'm not doing it to create attention.** ...Victoria loves it.*"

*** so it is a problem then?

** of corse not, we believe yah!

* sure she does (loves what?)

I have been known to leap in and defend Beckham - not this time though! Took one look at the Telegraph yesterday and thought `well you`re on your own this time mate!` What a sad muppet! (:o|

You reactionary w**kers, the lot of you !!!

It's only a bloody haircut for god's sake. Is shaved skinhead better, or do we all long for the day when he tried to compete with a centre parting. Or maybe it really doesn't matter.

I'm with you Mac...it's NOWT.....i'd much rather have a dipshit with a silly haircut as england captain than a drink driver or wife beater...

I agree that a silly haircut makes no difference to a player`s ability, or his skills as captain. But, it puts the England captain in the limelight for the wrong reasons again - and I think that damages his credibility.

Personally I couldn`t care less if he ties it up with a pink polkadot ribbon - and I`m disappointed that the Telegraph bothered to report on the subject.

Gus - first candidate to knock on my door and promise to weed the garden gets my vote! (:o)

His haircut is just like mine. But I still don't think he should be Captain of any side. Doesn't have the bollocks. A silly haircut, stupid personality and a Nutbar wifey do not a Captain make. What about leadership, direction, encouragement, rollockings etc etc etc. Lets face it, nobody ever took the boy seriously, never will, good player haircut or not. Spoiled Brat. Captain.....phhhtuuuee

Sorry Bud! I have done that before - possibly caused by lack of oxygen to the brain from too many hours bent over weeding! $:O)

The Clash used to give free "Rockin Mohawk" haircuts at their concerts on their Combat Rock tour. No thank you Joseph, I like your records but I think the hair is crap.
