| Audio: Chelsea fan Brindley blames arrogant Cardiff keeper David Marshall for Samuel Eto’o incident Posted: 21 Oct 2013 01:50 AM PDT We get our fair share of blinkered fan boys around here, but even we had to have a little chuckle when we heard Brindley the Chelsea fan over the weekend.

| Arsenal midfielder Emmanuel Frimpong mocks Man Utd’s troubles Posted: 20 Oct 2013 12:21 PM PDT He never seems to play football for them so we presume Emmanuel Frimpong is kept on the Arsenal payroll to lower morale at opposition clubs with his social media output.
