Well, here we go again folks. Another England player busted, pants down by his ankles, with a “tell all skank”, by a garbage-can-rummaging reporter who’s now truly achieved “papperazzi” status.

To date, the Italian maestro has had an almost flawless record following a brilliant [...]
Last week, on a training field at England’s World Cup training base at Royal Bafokeng, England captain Rio Ferdinand suffered a tournament ending knee injury that threw Fabio Capello’s squad preparations into disarray.
