September 13 – A Wright Touch and Tanti Auguri Fabio
A tale of a striker and defender today, as Wrighty breaks records and Cannavaro celebrates his birthday.
WHEN a young Ian Wright was spending a week in the slammer after not paying his motoring fines you’d have got a decent price on him becoming the all-time leading goalscorer top for one of the world’s biggest clubs.
If there’s one thing sport delivers better than any other facet of life though, it’s a rags-to-riches story and that’s just what young Wrighty gave us today in 1997 when he broke Cliff Bastin’s 50-year-old Arsenal goalscoring record. Click here for the whole story.
Today Fabio Cannavaro will be blowing out his candles, unwrapping his presents and listening intently to the radio in the hope someone has rung in and dedicated Joe Dulce’s classic hit Shaddupa Your Face for him as today he hits the big three-five. Read on here.
We figured you’d enjoy a clip where Wrighty’s feet do the talking rather than one of his incredibly annoying Gladiators/commentary box/Sun adverts.
