Deathray 2,941 Posted January 24, 2020 I misread the flash notice on this one as Louis Thereoux - interviewer - jailed for attempted murder and fell of my chair in disbelief.... It's some nutter he interviewed by the name of Joe Exotic. Might kill himself so good for here. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Gooseberry Crumble 5,347 Posted January 25, 2020 A clarification from the police regarding Jordan Sinnott, seems his former club misspoke with their tweet although apparently he is seriously ill and in a coma after an assault. Sadly his current football club have confirmed that Jordan has now died in a subsequent tweet saying he passed away at 7pm this evening. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Spade_Cooley 9,569 Posted February 1, 2020 Luciano Gaucci, one of Italian football's most legendary insane chairmen (and that's a crowded field), dead at 81. Tried to sign a woman, did sign Colonel Gadaffi's son (and, even more bizarrely, Jay Bothroyd). Fired Ahn Jung-hwan for scoring against Italy at the World Cup, also fired a coach for taking his dog to a press conference. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Spade_Cooley 9,569 Posted February 7, 2020 Journeyman Brazilian striker Andre Neles, who had an unsuccessful spell at Benfica in the early 2000s, dead at 42. Not particularly notable except for the fact he was one of the numerous foreign players nationalised by the government of Equatorial Guinea in an attempt to bolster their national team. Didn't do much for them: three caps, zero goals. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
