When I woke up this morning I was feelin' fine
But this cat starts banging man what a swine.
So I called reception but to no avail
That's why I'm telling you this sorry tale.
I went bang - I said shut up,
I went bang - I said rap up.
Well I'm aware that the guy must do his work
But the piledriver man drove me berserk.

He said captain, I said wot,
He said captain, I said wot,
He said captain, I said wot,
He said captain, I said wot d'ya want

Once a lifetime, twice a day
If you don't work you get no pay.
I been to the east, I been to the west,
But the girls I like best are the ones undressed.
Well, hello Adam, where you been?
I said a'stand aside 'cause I'm feelin' mean,
I've had a gutful of you and I'm feelin' bad
'Cause you're an ugly old pirate and ain't I glad.

He said captain, I said wot, ...

Capello's got to go if Terry Stays....
Report Desmond Orchard • February 5, 2010 2:12 PM GMT
He has maybe looked at the alternatives Leopard and decided that none of them stand up to much scrutiny on a personal level.
That said, if the rumours are true and Terry is getting a fresh coat of filth applied in the redtops over the weekend, then his hand may be forced.
Report rogerthebutler • February 5, 2010 2:17 PM GMT
Cappello is nothing if not a pragmatist.

His job is to win the World Cup, so the only question he has to answer is does England stand a better chance with John Terry as captain or not?

Shaun Wright Philips got a call from Capello saying that Terry had lost the captain's armband.

Shaun thinking his big moment had arrived asked Capello what he could do for him.

Capello said "Do us a favour & have a look for it under your bed for it".

judging by the market nobody knows who it's going to be yet.

Is Harry Redknapp sky's source ? :D

do you think betfair could add Sol Campbell to the maket ?

I think he could be looking for a captain who is not going to mess around with the other players' wags.

Terry had a fling with a single woman, probably not the best strategic choice.

I think the issue was that it was with another player's ex-girlfriend rather than he had just had a fling.
Report nononsense • February 5, 2010 3:03 PM GMT
if she was Bridges current girlfriend I could see mor of a reason
Report The Magic Flea • February 5, 2010 3:04 PM GMT
nononsense,

if this was a one off there would be no hysteria. The fact that he tried to hide it and went as far as getting an injuction has done him no good in the eyes of the public. Add to that all the other stuff that surrounds him and his family and you have a portrait of a very unsympathetic, disloyal greedy character
Report munch man • February 5, 2010 3:04 PM GMT
not a more important role, just that unrelated cases always get brought into arguments. a european prime minister having an affair and keeping his job should have absolutely no bearing on whether john terry, england football captain, should keep his.

the media and public forgave beckham, because it sounded like a one off and he faced the music. Also apart from the loos thing he was squeaky clena, plus no-one really likes victoria.

No. Beckham had an affair when captain and didn't get this much stick because was with some random and he had a better public image.

i can't really think of anyone who ticks every box needed to be the perfect england captain. all things considered, if it was up to me I'd give it back to Beckham. he's had his indiscretions in the past but, to be fair, since that he's been a model professional on and off the pitch.

In my opinion the only thing that Terry is bothered about is the fact that this will cost him money. Loss of captaincy = less marketting value, loss of advertising revenue and the wife might turn nasty yet!! Ooer.
