God listening to Tim Vickery on the world football phone in always make me realise how poor most punditry is, the man is brilliant as is the programme. It is that hyped up yet unimaginative presentation of the Premiership that I hate so much; don't mind match of the day to be honest but it still largely suffers from the same thing.

I'm a fan of Tim Vickery. He is the man in the know when it comes to South American football. Need to know the fortunes of Gremio or Colo Colo? Vickery is your man. Or the player who is the next Aguero or Kaka? Again Vickery is your man.

So does Terry survive as Eng captain or even as an Eng player?

The media are absolutely out for his head and it's not as though he's remotely in Shane Warne's class as a sportsman so is hardly indispensible (plus he's a feral and a grossly overpaid one at that)

IMO, they should punt him from the captaincy at least but won't

You've probably seen it already, but this sums it up really...

You obviously haven't had a look at our pool of centre-halves. We're so bereft that the 57 year old Sol Campbell has an outside chance of going to the world cup.

MacGill was a far more comparable replacement for Warne than Matthew Upson, Joleon "****ing" Lescott or Wes Brown is for Terry.

Plus it's fair small beer as scandals go; in the past decade we've had England squad members (allegedly) paying for underage girls to get abortions, shoving mobile phones up another squad member's arse, assaulting Asian students and using prostitutes old enough to be their mother.

Then there was Ashley Young giving himself a good time on a webcam and Glen Johnson stealing a toilet seat from B&Q. The only thing anyone will hold against Terry after this scandal is his lack of originality.

That's why he said he wont get the chop

Anyway, media will get their pound of flesh in the meantime and it couldnt happen to a nicer guy

You knew the Murdoch press had something on Terry when their announced him as their new “columnist”. Akin to when Owen was signed up by the NOTW.

But this is a non-issue as Terry was never a paragon of virtue. Has history of being scum and that was known long before he was made England captain.

Yeah, this is a guy who has openly boasted about "taking it out on my wife and family" after suffering a defeat, classy.

Definately agree with this you should be able to look up to your captain as the guy who has got your back, not knocking off your misses as soon as your back is turned.

If it was up to me he would be out of the England team all together, I wouldn't want to play with a guy who has done the dirty on a teamate, which is the difference between this and the other scandels.
