Football 3:0, Eurovision null points (nearly)

// 06.03.08

In case you missed the news, we trounced Trinidad and Tobago at footie, with Goldenballs wearing the captain’s armband, but we came equal last in the Eurovision Song Contest with a scary Polish woman who seemed to have replaced her teeth with piano keys.

So, in the spirit of creativity (yeah, we do have some creativity, we don’t just leech off other people’s smarts) we at tee-junkie have a suggestion. Given that Beckham’s succeeding as the come-back kid in the beautiful game, why not go for a Eurovision act who would get the voters to ring up in droves?

I’m talking about your favourite, my favourite, your gran’s favourite: he can sing and dance and tell jokes (so they say) …. Ladies and gentlemen, I suggest that in 2009 we choose … Bruce Forsyth!

And with eerily perfect timing, the guys and gals at Tonic have produced a T-shirt to support the ‘Bruce for Eurovision’ campaign.

I’m loving that it’s organic and ethical and think that if you all get behind me we can take over the world.

Right, that may be a bit excessive, given the general level of laziness inherent in having a t-shirt Jones but surely we can once again win Eurovision! After all, Tonic have Graham Norton in the bag (see their site) so all we need to do is buy the t-shirt, get Graham as compere, and find a song for Brucie to sing - how difficult can it be?

Okay, we can buy the tee

    Kay, you need to take this one step further. What do you really need to win at Eurovision?

    Answer: Hollywood glamour, bling, name recognition, scary wife, more bling…

    Posh & Becks representing Britain. You know it makes sense.

    One small problem with Brucie. When interviewed a while ago and asked if he likes football he replied : “Oh yes. I support Arsenal and Tottenham”.

    Now, if I really need to explain why that isn’t quite getting the point of it all then you too, reader, know fuck all about football. Nice try to be “man of the people” but oh dear, oh very dear.
