John Terry - "Yes, I'm a dick."

A sequence of three wins in 12 Premier League matches, culminating in last Saturday's 1-0 defeat at West Bromwich Albion, has seen Chelsea drop out of the top four and prompted Roman Abramovich, much to his own frustration, to sack Villas-Boas in person during a visit to the training ground on Sunday. "It's sad for André because, unfortunately, it falls on his head when I think the players will hold their hands up and say clearly: 'We've not been good enough and we have all made mistakes together,'" Terry said.

"We came to Birmingham and dug deep for him, and for Robbie [Di Matteo] taking charge and for Eddie [Newton] coming in as well [on to the coaching staff]. It's nice to have familiar faces around who know the club. We have done enough talking among ourselves for the last three or four months, and Robbie came in and said those exact same things as well, we have to show commitment for the shirt. He has played here, the same as Eddie, and we have to fight for the shirt and that has been the message to the lads for this game."

Whether it is pissing on dance floors or drunkenly yelling at american tourists on 911 or getting managers sacked he is a tinker and once a tinker always a tinker. Who's mother gets arrested shoplifting? John Terry's! She was caught with £800 of clothes and groceries from Tesco and Marks & Spencer. Among the items were said to be girls' flip flops, leggings, casual shirts, men's and ladies' watches, a green track suit and groceries including sweets and pet food.

Granted everything you said about the low-class individual that is John Terry, but I hadn't heard about his abuse of American tourists after 9/11 before. Do you have a link for that one?
