THE CROW By RICHARD OSLEY & CATHERINE ETOE
 
Yes Jose, you are a flipping fish finger

THERE was a great moment in the West Brom versus Chelsea match on Saturday when Baggies manager Bryan Robson looked over at Jose Mourinho and called him a “flipping fish finger” – or words to that effect.
Better than any indignant newspaper columnist could manage the morning after, in that one moment, Captain Marvel took the whole nation on his shoulders and summed up what everybody from Highbury to White Hart Lane, from Leicester to Grimsby, was thinking.
Jose: “You are a flipping fish finger – get lost.”
My nan could win the league with £250 million to spend each season but I wonder whether Jose could keep West Brom in the Premiership with Ronnie Wallwork and Neil Clement.
Jose celebrating like he had found out chips were for dinner on the touchline at The Hawthorns made everyone sick. One hundred million pounds clear in the Premiership, you might have thought he could afford some humility.
No surprises then that everybody was supporting Barcelona on Tuesday night. There are some things Chelsea can’t buy, class is one of them.



I FEARED my esteemed rival Ricardo Oslinho had picked up a bad dose of Spanish tummy on his jaunt to Madrid t’other week.
Turns out Las Cochas is just suffering from that age-old football complaint known as squeaky bum time. The reason for his over-excited state? Why Europe of course. And who could blame him, with such eminent galacticos standing between his beloved Arsenal and European glory.
Talking of Spurs, I’d like to thank all of you who wrote in to congratulate my boys for helping England win the other night (Spurs 5, Arsenal 0). I suspect the mail bag will be chocka again when Spurs, sorry England, win the World Cup.
I’m only joshing of course, you’d need to have the entire Tottenham team in England colours to manage that and I don’t think Paul Stalteri has dual nationality.
Shame really, given the entertainment value Spurs have brought to the game this season – unlike our opponents this weekend. We might have parked the team bus in front of their goal last season, but Chelski forgot to even get off theirs on Tuesday.
Thankfully, we won’t have to watch a borefest like that in Europe again until next season. And we can all shout ‘olé!’ to that.
