'Celebrity' fan

Absolutely fantastic. Just what we need. Our club is one big PR disaster zone, lurching from tabloid calamity to tabloid calamity. And now, on the eve of a match which has the potential to bring acute discomfort to us Newcastle fans, we have to face up to the fact that there's a chance John fucking McCririck could be staying in the 'Celebrity Big Brother' house for a whole two weeks.

Yes, that's a potential two weeks of embarrassment at the hands of possibly the most odious arsehole ever to call himself a Toon fan (though Blair runs him close). Even watching the interview he gave before entering the house, when he was clad in full Toon regalia (shirt, scarf etc), I was wincing.

Let's just hope he gets booted out nice and early.
