The People's Chimp Posted September 19, 2008 Share Posted September 19, 2008 Who are, or were, the most rock n roll footballers out there? Robin Friday, immortalised by the super furry animals, is an obvious contender; a talented genius, who, like so many, couldn't reign in his wild streak. Gazza was a similar wasted talent, but he had a more mainstream edge than the likes of Friday. I suppose as well, who are the indie* footballers? Christian Dailly is apparently in a band. I always liked Dailly, especially after that "cheating bast**ds!" outburst back in the dark days under berti vogts. Of course he's gone and spoiled all of that by signing for der hun. *a pretty nonsensical phrase nowadays. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sawdust Caesar Posted September 19, 2008 Share Posted September 19, 2008 It's a shame there is no tv footage of Robin Friday. I've read that book about him, he scored some great goals and was a fantastic player according to reports, would love to have seen him in action. I reckon Frank Worthington was a bit of a rock'n'roll footballer. He certainly fancied himself as Elvis anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ivan Drago Posted September 19, 2008 Share Posted September 19, 2008 Lee Sharpe? Maybe not Rock'n'Roll, but he was a highly promising youngster before becoming crap, getting fat, and shagging ****loads of Z-list celebrities. Legend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
