Matt Le Tissier

I used to love watching him play for Southampton. Wasn't he teased about the fact that he read the Guardian and did their crossword? Or am I mixing 'Le God' up with someone else?

Ric, you own the site, you shouldn't need to apologise about thread duplication. :-) You are our 'Le God'!!
The Guardian reader was Le Saux, because of this and his education, many other players at the time thought he was a homosexual and actually called him gay. Robbie Fowler infamously semi prostrated in La Saux's direction during a game.
 
Who needs scientists, journalists, historians etc when a bang average footballer and below par pundit can dispense such wisdom on Twitter? Thanks Matt for enlightening us.
 
He's going to go into Holocaust denial at this rate, especially given the kind of people who are following him now. I don't mean people who are a bit right-wing, I mean proper David Icke-ish whackaloon conspiracy theorists. And I'm not a Saints fan but Le Tissier was one of my fave players in the '90s - he was a joy to watch, Southampton would have been nothing without him - and seeing him denying war crimes is depressing. What made him like this anyway? I know the COVID thing started because he couldn't see his grandkids.

With respect, He might be a total dickhead but if you think Le Tissier was a "bang average footballer" you might be better off watching a different sport.
 
I didn't realise Le Tissier headed the ball that often but it can be the only reason for this stupidity.
