Robbo Posted February 19, 2014 Share Posted February 19, 2014 http://www.mirror.co.uk/sport/football/news/fabio-capello-left-red-faced-after-3161646 Fabio Capello was often criticised as England manager for his struggle to grasp the language. But at no point in his time as Three Lions boss did he accidentally call up the wrong player. However, the Russia coach has this week been left red-faced after unwittingly including a reserve-team player in his squad after a confusion over names. The Italian, 67, included Lokomotiv Moscow reserve Andrey Semenov on his 23-man list to play Armenia on March 5, when he intended to select the Terek Grozny defender of the same name. "I was surprised, to say the least..." revealed the lesser-known Semenov. "Well, I have one year's experience playing for Russia's youth team!"

alexf Posted February 19, 2014 Share Posted February 19, 2014 That is scarily how I imagine Pardew is sometimes. For example when he said we'd be getting a replacement for Cabaye. He probably thought we were, then discovers we're not and has to go into the press conference and say things like "I didn't necessarily mean this window" Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chicken Dancer Posted February 20, 2014 Share Posted February 20, 2014 Bit of a random one, but can anyone think of the player who was booked first five games of the season? Was it Perch? Or has there been multiple? Can't for the life of me think and it's annoying me. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest tollemache Posted February 20, 2014 Share Posted February 20, 2014 Not sure where to put this but here will probably do... For those using Gmail, Google calendars etc, you can integrate the World Cup schedule into your calendar and get phone updates etc by going to the dropdown menu next to 'Other Calendars', selecting 'Add by URL' and pasting this: https://www.google.com/calendar/ical/vdmtdcektajkqjk51vvda4ni4k%40group.calendar.google.com/public/basic.ics Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
