FEELING A LITTLE DEFENSIVE?

Does Phil Thompson protest a little bit too much?

“Listening to the radio I heard what must have been one of
the most diabolical pieces I've ever come across.

"BBC Radio Five were actually running a poll, calling people
to e-mail if Emile should play for England against Turkey. I
find this unacceptable. There is a personal vendetta against
Emile.

"Emile is such a nice guy that he never has a go back at
this kind of thing, but I think it's only right we as a club
defend him. We will be taking this matter up."
