Not one them could hack junior club 1st team Rugby let alone making Special Forces.... !

As far as I am aware to be in Special Forces, you need to be tough, intelligent, disciplined, team player, think independently and be able to take orders, so I guess that rules out virtually all Premiership Footballers ;-)
Correct. They have been taking smart guys for years.

I never stood a chance. smile

My nominations -

i/ Jamie Carragher. Would anyone understand him?

ii/ John Terry (although I detest him, I'd want to have him by my side in a row). Thing is you'd end up having a row with him yourself!

iii/ Julian Dicks. Good at taking penalties, and kicking anything else.

iv/ Gary Pallister

v/ Dean Windass

vi/ Ledley King. Oh Ledley, Ledley, he's only got one knee, he's better than John Terry, Oh Ledley, Ledley.

Add your nominees........
Graham Roberts.

Lauren

To quote Ljunberg ”I had Lauren behind me, if anyone kicked me, he’d kick the st out of them. Excuse my language.”

Or maybe ask Phil Neville biggrin

Judging from the above photos, if being unable to control your anger and generally being of a violent nature is a requirement for being in the SAS, well...

Come on, footballers and the SAS are poles apart. It has simply devolved into nutter footballers.

Chopper Harris
Billy Bremner

And, for Canary fans worldwide - I give you Duncan Forbes. He ate empty beer cans for breakfast and spat out the low-calorie fakes. Finesse? WTF? Like a brick sh*thouse, he was.

More importantly, what did he have for breakfast? (Can't believe I didn't recognise Mackay - now HE was hard)
