Denis Wise What A W**ker

This post is actually being written tomorrow in real time. I was feeling guilty for not posting for 2 days and as I have plenty to post about I thought I might as well just pretend I put one of the posts on yesterday.

And talking of yesterday (that is yesterday from the date of this post not yesterday from when it was written which would be the date of this post), if you look back you will see that Eric put a comment on my post. If you are too lazy to look back then I will tell you that Eric suggested I find out why Leicester fans hate Dennis Wise so much.

Following Eric's trail led me to his blog site (or rather one of them - he has several). I noticed a bit of a theme emerging, based upon a passionate loathing of both Leeds United and Dennis Wise.

Which led me to thinking there might be something worth following up. So I did.

Dennis Wise used to play for Leicester City. He already had a controversial record before arriving. His career was described in the Sunday Mirror in 2004 as "a litany of pettifogging petty thuggery ", and the article nicknamed him "The Beast". He was known for violent behaviour on and off the field, despite only being small.

But the reason that he is so hated by Leicester City fans is that he was eventually sacked from The Foxes for breaking the jaw of his team mate, Calum Davidson. Not as you might expect on the field or in training. After all, fighting on the pitch does not seem that unusual. But following a poker game.

Of course Mr Wise does appear to have some fox in him. For the wily creature decided not to take any personal risk when he got he took his revenge on Davidson and assaulted him whilst he was asleep. Nasty!

Still Denis Wise and Leeds United (revision tip: who are the devil) are where they belong now. In hell!
