O’Neill To Forest – Fear To Wed Rachel Stevens

Sometimes you’ve just got to laugh… well, you haven’t got to, I’m not going to throw laughing gas your way, but you get my drift…

Anyway, The Daily Express has a ‘report’ today suggesting that Martin O’Neill will soon be the target for a consortium from the Middle East (Dubai based to be exact) who are looking to buy Championship club and former glory hole (not sure what a glory hole is to be honest but then again, it sounds good) of Brian Clough Nottingham Forest.

The former Forest player and now Villa boss, it is said, is the groups target to get Forest back into the promised land.

I’d say that is as likely for them as my ‘reported’ target, Rachel Stevens is for me. Then again, it is a funny old game, maybe one day Rachel Stevens will fall for my bountiful hair and endless charm and wit.

Oh and then, just before publishing this story, I’ve re-checked and Nottingham Forest have denied rumours of a Middle Eastern consortium.

Forest chief executive Mark Arthur told the Nottingham Evening Post ‘It’s rubbish.’

No one in the Rachel Stevens camp was about for comment on the Fear’s hopes and dreams however a source close to the former singer said it would be bad for Fear’s health if he held his breath whilst waiting.
