I was listening to the "That Peter Crouch Podcast", where Peter Crouch chats about various things to do with football and his career, it's an excellent podcast and I recommend it to all.

They asked him if he was ever scared of any players and he said that the one that scared him the most was John Pantsil when he was at Fulham. Apparently Crouchy was giving him a bit of lip and it sent Pantsil psycho, he said Pantsil just followed him around the rest of the game, roughing him up and threatening him, even to the point of playing out of position in order to get at Crouchy.

I was surprised by this, Pantsil always seemed the cheeriest bloke on the field, or maybe I'm confusing the post match celebrating Pantsil did with his on field demeanour. Anyone think Pantstil was a bit of a hot head?

Wow, this is interesting actually..

I remember the game when we beat Pompey 3-1 back in 2009 and Pantsil was all over Crouch and beat him to everything in the air.  I swear to this day Crouch didn't even try and it was one of the oddest things I've ever seen at the Cottage.  I wonder if this was the game he's talking about?

Have a read of John outside of football. Loveable guy, but he's got a hot head.

I'd say that's the one

Anyone remember the match that Pantsil beasted Drogba away at Chelski? We lost anyway, but it was probably the best performance he ever gave us.

That game changed as soon as he went off injured

I thought Beastility was a criminal offence, unless it's been legalised, since I last fell asleep.

Yes, that's right, I had it in my head that he was sent off, but think I was getting mixed up with another match.

Looking back, we have given that lot some good games in the past. Let's hope Sunday is another one.





Bassey the warrior

Like many Fulham players under Roy, he punched above his weight if you look at his career. For a period he was superb and we missed him until we got Riether (first season).

Let's just say he was a much better right back than Burn.
But he was clearly mental.
