Johnny Foreigner can't burst John Terry's (condom) bubble, plus Chelsea TV do it for the Bridge Kids

Johnny Foreigner is showing a shocking lack of respect for our Premier League heroes.
John Terry’s welcome in Milan included a prankster handing him a condom – which repentant JT accepted with a broad grin – and a sign at the airport reading “John Terry, do you like my (female anatomical slang term unprintable on a family website)?”
Meanwhile, Bucharest journalists fell on Rafa Benitez like a porker at a hog roast, demanding to know why Liverpool had scheduled an early return flight home from Bucharest when the game could have gone to extra-time and inquiring “how does it feel when every week the fans are singing ‘you’re getting sacked in the morning’?”
Rafa finally called an end to the abuse and the press conference after the query “the last time I saw you it was 2005 and your, shall we say, silhouette was much different. Why is that?”

Chelsea TV might have to think again about the title of their ‘fun-packed show for all the family’ which screened before their fever-pitch defeat to Manchester City.
The present title promises something far more controversial than just mascot Stamford The Lion clowning around… it’s ‘Bridge Kids’.
