Ian Wright - Most Embarrassing Dad Ever

Remember when you were 13 and you weren't doing so well at school? You just wanted to keep your head down and not draw any attention to yourself. But your dad decided it would be much better to charge through the school gates and start yelling at your teacher, hoping to bully said teacher into giving you a better report. Remember how embarrassed you were?

Shaun Wright-Phillips doesn't have to remember, as this is exactly what his dad did over the Christmas holidays. Only instead of school it was the England football team and instead of a teacher it was Sven Goran-Eriksson. Speaking on his Granada Men & Motors Show (located somewhere in the bowels of Sky Digital) Wright Snr. had this to say about his favourite Swede:

"The man’s like a wet fish. He’s got as much passion as a f***ing tadpole. He’s useless. Speaking as an England fan, I say he’s not good enough to be managing the country. And if he doesn’t pick Shaun because of what I’m saying then he’s a bigger you-know-what than I thought he was. He’s corrupting all the women in the office at the FA. It seems what he’s doing is s****ing as many women as he can. If he put as much attention into the team as he does in the office, we might be doing a little bit better."

Poor Shaun. But his dad wasn't finished.

“For me, playing for England against other countries is like modern-day war. We are going to war against another country, going into their country and battling and you have to beat them. It’s a great feeling when you do that. But, as a country, I think we are being beaten too regularly. There’s something wrong. I would scratch a guy’s eye out for me and the team. That’s what fans want.”
