Christiano Ronaldo - the irony!

Paul Wad's picture

He writes off his Ferrari by crashing it into a barrier and walks away.

Yet if a defender brushes past him he rolls around like he's been shot!

Protection from stalkers

I love the way the Guardian have pixelled out the car's registration number on their website - so nobody can identify exactly which of all the red Ferraris with Portuguese plates in Manchester is his.

Ronaldo's Registration Number

Does anyone share my fantasy of replacing people's attention-seeking personalised number plates with more realistic ones? That aside, I can reveal that Ronaldo's is:

1CH3AT

Brilliant

Shouldn't he be rolling around on the ground, clutching his knee, pointing accusingly at the crash barrier and miming a red card?

and apparently

he told the attending policeman that he has never been very good at taking corners!! Quite a modest revelation for the arrogant one!

I think he should have both

his Driving and Diving licences revoked.
and that's the end of news Huddlines......

As someone who

wrote many such a line for the News Huddlines - I tip my hat to you. I suspect we would have added in a tag line such as it being the first time he didn't want the penalty, or the judge sentenced him to another year at Man Utd, or that he denied he was plucking his eyebrows in the rear view mirror... or... or... or...on and on ad infinitum...

and on and on and...

... I heard someone had cut him up, so he wrapped it round a telegraph pole to get the guy arrested.

He took Sir Alex's advice too seriously

"Bend it roond the wall".

Winking

Was he seen winking at the Tow truck driver as his Ferrari was hauled away?
Hats off to Paul Wad for starting this thread.
Reminds me of the old classic of when Andrew Ridgley Crashed his racing car. The commentator said it was his only hit since leaving Wham.
talking of the man. This from today's Popbitch
Now Blur are getting back together, we're
reminded of a conversation in the Lyric on Great
Windmill Street where the band used to drink.
Graham Coxon was always moaning about Damon Albarn
and one day told Richard the licensee that he'd
ad enough and was leaving. The licensee replied,
"I have two words for you. Andrew Ridgley."

Edwin Van Der Sar....

...was apparently not far behind him as he went through the tunnel. Make of that what you will.

They were having a race ...

... is surely NOT what you're speculating happened here*

Is this the same morally bankrupt football club that got Alex F off a charge of doing 120mph down the hard shoulder of a motorway "because he needed the toilet"?

* added 'for legal reasons'.

Well, that was at least a slightly better excuse

than Linda Lusardi's "because I was going to be late for panto".

Exposed! Redtop's ethical inconsistency

In a way, we should be grateful to him for demonstrating that even the modern supercar still has that visceral thrill of danger.

And this from one of the papers who were all over Lily Allen yesterday for her shock-horror claim that millions of recreational drug users manage to function quite normally?

Getting Worried

I'm assuming Archie is reading a load of Right Wing nonsense purely for research purposes.

Sour Crout | 9 January 2009 - 1:42pm

I just follow the links, wherever they may lead

Life's more interesting that way.

(That said, the Daily Telegraph really has had the best music coverage recently. How many Peter Green clips does the Indy give you, eh?)

Archie Valparaiso | 9 January 2009 - 3:35pm

I think Archie should be free...

...to read old nonsense of any political stripe he wants, as are we all.
Anyway, here in the office we've been discussing the following aspects of the affair:
1. It's presumably on security camera somewhere
2. That is going to find its way on to You Tube
3. Is that going to be the most popular clip in the history of the channel?

David Hepworth | 9 January 2009 - 4:26pm

Baffled

The old nonsense in question was from the Daily Mirror, a rag that is to the hardcore right wing as Nick Cave is to melody. But, yes, I do check out the Mail from time to time.

If you only read people who think the same way you think you'll never know what those who don't think the way you think actually think.

I think.

There was me

Trying to be funny and falling flat on my face.Like watching a car crash, wasn't it ?
I thought you were refering to the Mail hence the comment. I did use "assume".

Gets me on the raw, that kind of thing

Tripe is tripe and it is in generous supply from both sides of the political spectrum. It is, was and always shall be thus.

FAIR ENOUGH

Yikes

don't mention politics Paul, the closet Tories on this site will get their royal blues in a twist. Remember the mind boggling "Thatcher is cool" blog. Oh and as for Ronaldo, he has now walked into a Manchester cop shop with Sir Alex and complained that the wall was not 10 yards away!

Good gag Too
