Sky's Scouser sledging

Jacquie_beltrao You could write everything that Sky News presenter and all-round bint, Jacquie Beltrao, knows about football on the back of a season ticket. She can't even spell her own name, for Christ's sake.

But she surpassed her usual level of inane gobspittle this morning, with the following little pearl of wisdom about Liverpool's own-goal poacher, John Arne Riise:

(Note this conversation isn't an exact transcript, as I was too busy choking on my Weetabix at the sheer awfulness of what she said to fetch a biro)

"It's such a shame for Riise. Liverpool fans love him because he's a 'proper foreigner' who's been here for years, not one of those Johnny-come-lately foreigners."

How someone who's played in England for years qualifies for the title "proper foreigner", only Jacquie and Enoch Powell will ever know. Even Eamon Holmes looked fucking flabbergasted.
