Loved this on this week's Popbitch email:
Doha has been awash with ex-pro footballers taking their turns to be pundits for various media outlets. Even John Terry got signed up as an analyst for beIN Sports, part of a tournament dream team with Andy Gray and Richard Keys.
Terry's World Cup journey didn't get off to the best of starts though. He arrived at the Qatar Airways lounge in Heathrow to find it full of the BBC on-air team, including Rio Ferdinand. Rio and Terry haven't spoken since the 2012 court case where Terry was accused of racially abusing Rio's brother, Anton — and that position certainly didn't change in the lounge. Nor on the plane.
Qatar Airways' Business Class has fairly discreet seating, giving everyone their own private space. All except for the first two rows — which have one row facing forward, one facing back.
We aren't sure if someone at Qatar Airways has a twisted sense of humour, but Ferdinand and Terry were assigned a pair of seats that faced each other. Which made for quite a frosty flight. |  |

Brilliant.
I can't forgive that bollix, and I'm damn sure I'll always hate him. And I've chatted to Gandhi and MLK and they told me (and I'm quoting them here, if I can find my notes) to "work away, kid, and you'll be grand". |  |

My nephew is running a raffle for research into curing cancers for youngsters,and one of the prizes is a signed John Teary framed shirt,and another is a shirt signed by the current Chelshite team.It’s for a good cause,but knowing my luck I’d win one of them.
I suppose I could pay my £10 and ask him not to put my ticket in the draw. |  | | |

I refuse to believe winning either of those prizes would be of benefit to anyone's health. What a fcuking irony failure. |  |

If you win it you can always make a point of burning it in front of a crowd. |  | | |

I'd love to think the member of staff at Qatar Airways who arranged the flight seating was an R! |  | | |

Spectacular lineup right there:
John Terry, Andy Gray and Richard Keys - classic lineup for a compulsory diversity and inclusion course. [Post edited 16 Dec 2022 12:41]

Not going to comment on Terry but I watched an interview with Gray and Keys which was pretty disturbing.
Both said once their careers were destroyed ( self inflicted I suspect ) they both contemplated suicide and Gray basically went all the way to the shed with the booze and pills.
Both have great families apparantly so they went abroad ,settled down and built up their lives again.
Second chances are something we all deserve.
It JT and the entire Chelsea signed a shirt to help in cancer research or to help out a family struggling with this curse I tip my cap and hope it raises the max amount |  | | |
