The bigger the better

A bunch of ding-a-lings called the Alliance Against Urban 4×4’s has said they’ll be targeting Premiership footballers for their choice of big offroad vehicles.
I heard a spokeswomen on the radio yesterday talking about how they planned to go to the club training grounds and plaster players cars with bogus tickets, like they’ll get anywhere near them.

The Alliance’s co-ordinator Sian Berry says ‘footballers are setting a dreadful example by their choice of vehicle’, and ‘how much room do they need to carry a kit bag? We will be targeting players at their training grounds to highlight their shocking disregard both for the environment and the safety of other road users’.
How much room do they need? As much as they can bloody well afford and when players are on a hundred grand a week that’s a lot.

Making driving a 4×4 as ’socially unacceptable’ as drink driving ain’t going to happen, when people do well and make themselves some money they’ll want nice things , and why not.
