Shorts!

Our new pals over at Goaly Moly (the football version of pioneering celeb site Holy Moly), who have some very good sources in some very high places, seem 99% certain that Steven Gerrard is off to Real Madrid this summer. Hmmm… [Goaly Moly]

Terrible news. Really soul-destroying, ‘Britain is broken’ news: Smug tosser Colin Murray has been confirmed as the new host of Match of the Day 2. Shit the bed, that’s depressing. [BBC]

Sir Alex Ferguson of Fergieshire is NOT retiring, folks. The pensioner dismissed such rumours as “absolute rubbish” and told hacks at a press conference that he would outlast them all. In the words of the absolutely gash Predator 2, there’s no killin’ what can’t be killed.

And that’s your morning shorts, people.
