If you give me your house I will promise to ensure that Liv never removes the side bars.

According to Wikipedia
“After being rejected by Bristol Rovers Darren started his career in the lower leagues at Newport County, and when the club went bust he signed for Hereford United.

He scored only two league goals for the Magpies, one of which was in the 5-0 defeat of Manchester United.

Peacock later played for Blackburn Rovers. He soon lost his place in the team and spent loan spells at West Ham and Wolves. While on loan at Wolves he collided with his own goalkeeper in a match against Fulham, which resulted in damaged vertebrae in his neck and compression to his spine. He played on in the match despite being knocked unconscious, and it was only until he returned to Blackburn that the full extent of his injury came to light, having come close to paralysis.

Peacock now lives in Portugal with his family.”

According to Tommopedia
Darren Peacock was spotted by a scout at a young age who could tell that he had the potential to be really crap. Suspicions were confirmed when he was rejected by Bristol Rovers. He got a job scrubbing boots at Newport County and succeeded in bankrupting the club after a few short weeks.

After a few years working under cover for Manchester United at Newcastle and having successfully scuppered several championship bids he was sold to Blackburn who used him to keep the bench warm. He once played an entire match while fully unconscious at Wolves during which he played pretty much the same as usual – close to paralysis. He has never fully achieved consciousness, either before or since.

He is now in hiding in Portugal living off the bungs paid to him by Alex Ferguson.

Day time TV

Watching The Heaven and Earth Show at work – it’s actually quite good.

Today they had an interview with a woman called “Camilla Batmanghalalji”. Best obviously-made-up-name ever. I think it must be hyphenated and that she was called Camilla Batman and she married an Arab or something…

The next item was introduced by Gloria Huniford as “Now imagine finding out that a relative of yours was responsible for one of the biggest massacers in history… that’s what happened to our next guest – Isabel Himler”

Quality show. Next week Anastacia Stalin talks about the shock of finding out what her dad really meant by “breaking a few eggs to make an omelette” and an interview with Claudia Spidermanghali

Punishment?

In the Philipines there is a prison where 1,600 prisoners are rehabilitated partly through dance. Here is 1,600 Philipino prisoners’ version of Thriller. And they’re actually quite good…
