So he reckons he will be fit enough to play on October 24! Sure should keep his weight down! What are the chances he thought that the UAE was dry, thus helping his alleged drink problem!

I know someone that interviewed him yesterday and Gazza has been "dry" for five and a half months. He is very focused on what he has to do and wants to do well in the UAE.

Unfortunately, he also "lost his shorts" whilst at Wild Wadi, much to the delight of some football fans watching his escapades.

Give the guy a chance at least!

Homesick rae, that was meant to be a little "tongue-in-cheek".

I hope this is true, which would mean that his latest stay in the Meadows clinic has worked. However, when he left that clinic in mid-May, the illustrious journal - "The Daily Mirror", insisted that he spent the entire time in the Executive lounge at PHX, knocking back beer!

He has made similar promises about his future in the past, for example when arriving in China last January, but his subsequent behaviour over his contract with Ginsu Tianmu has not done him any particular favours!
