The stereotype of footballers is that they are thick as sh*t, an image not helped by the seemingly continuous stream of verbal cack that they spew forth. Here is a small collection of some of the more infamous football clangers. I'm sure there are a veritable glut of ridiculous remarks missing from the list, so if there are any glaring omissions, please feel free to add them in at the bottom of the article.

The recent phenomenon of the mid-season January transfer window has just finished its second week for 2009 and as of yet there have been few major signings to occur. Clearly the transfers most worth speaking of so far have been Wayne Bridge leaving Chelsea to join Manchester City, and last week's return ticket of Jermaine Defoe to Tottenham from Portsmouth.
Some unbelievable weather and even less believable comebacks were to set the tone for this week's round of La Primera division. With some great examples of the latter setting up the start of the weekend's fixtures.
Like a prostitute, the Liga Sagres spread its legs over two nights of action at a series of different venues. It started Saturday night with one client on top, finished the night with another there, and spent Sunday night letting someone else climb on top of it. Disgusting!!
All eyes were on the Stadio Olimpico on Sunday night as the pick of the weekend’s fixtures also saw the debut of the world’s most marketable player.
