Maltin said:I'd worked it out and done my own research, Chris.
When Saturday Comes: The Half Decent Football Book starts their description of the team as "Leicester have spent much of their unremarkable existence bouncing between the top two divisions - never quite producing a side good enough to win major honours, yet never quite sliding down to the third tier."
Well known players (mainly for other teams) that I can find include Gordon Banks (England), Keith Weller, Frank Worthington, Gary Lineker (England, Everton, Barcelona, Tottenham), Allan Clarke (Leeds), Peter Shilton (Forest, Southampton, England), Alan Smith (Arsenal), Alan Birchenall (half-time raffle man).
This is why I don't like WSC, it can be so sneering and patronising.. that article sounds like a Surrey based Man U supporter wrote it.

The BBC reckon he's going to start. Owen scores more playing with Heskey than anyone else. Very brave of McClaren given his position... I hope for Heskey's sake he silences his critics (Heskey's critics, not McClaren's... he deserves them).

Interesting to see the various levels of prejudice against Super Emile. The Times and the BBC both reported that he put in a solid perfomance that rewarded the decision to play him. He got a 7/10 rating in the Times above most of the team who got 6/10. Gerrard and Owen have both said he was a big asset to the team. Even my mates who loved ripping Heskey all admitted he played really well and deserves to start against Russia.
The News of the World? Basically called him a donkey and ranked him with 6/10 when the rest of the team were 7 or 8. Fucking lame.

Here for the football.
To be fair he had a blinder. His hold up play was immense and he was one of the better players on the pitch behind wright-phillips, joe cole & gareth barry.
Still think hes a bit wank but he did very well.

He plays ok when his confidence is up and he can be a handful, personally would not want to defend against the big lump though he has the touch of a telephone box and one on one with the keeper reckon 8 times out of ten he will f it up.....saying that did allright on the weekend ...average

So
Looks like good ol Emile Heskey has put the dagger in Chelsea's title ambtions, by scoring the equaliser and doing a huge favour for Man Yoo keeping the title. I bet Baron Greenback's face i.e. Avram Grant's was a picture after the final whistle!
