No. 4: Rs fan, pete_ranger & Mod on the old offy m/b, creator of MadRangersFans -

This is taken from yesterday's paper, re. the British Museum thefts:

artefacts has been named as Peter Higgs, a senior curator at the museum......" :o

No.5, Brian Law. Saw this in the paper last week;
all about people unfortunate enough to live in flats with Grenfell-style cladding:
"Former Wales footballer Brian Law, 53, owns a 3-bed penthouse in Birmingham.
When he retired from professional football, which included stints at Wolves,
QPR and Millwall he hoped his savings would help to see him through. But in 2019
he was informed he would be required to pay £38,000 for cladding replacement works......."

No. 10, ex-player Rio Ferdinand.
Rio gets a mention in the latest Private Eye;
in 'Commentatorballs,' he's reported as saying,
"Old habits die young."

No. 11, and I have to say, not my favourite ex-player; in fact, IMO he was never fit to wear the Hoops.
Professional gobshite & rent-a-quote Joey Barton had some scathing comments about Mary Earps
winning Sportsperson of the Year. Said Barton, who once played 12 minutes for England,
"To win before Ronnie O'Sullivan and Frankie Dettori? They lost to a big sack of spuds that plays in goal
for a girls team. I'd score 100 out of 100 penalties against Mary Earps." :o
Still as charming as ever!

No. 20, ex-Rs man Kyle Walker was England's captain for the Brasil game; although he didn't last long!
Could be a future quiz question, which Rs players have captained England?

No. 23, Rick Ferries, aka JD.
This is from yesterday's paper:
"Donald Trump has selected JD Vance as his running partner for the Presidential election.
As Vice President, JD will continue to fight for......(blah blah)"
