Recreational drug fan may not make it to Scotland next week

Argentinean legend Diego Maradona has only been in charge of his national side for approximately four-and-a-half minutes, but he is already threatening to walk out. The cheating genius is at loggerheads with Argentinean Football Association president Julio Grondona over his choice of assistant coach: Maradona wants former team mate Oscar Ruggeri, but the president is not his biggest fan. When asked why he held contempt for Ruggeri, Grondona simply said:

“I don’t like his face. It’s a personal thing.”

The English FA probably wouldn’t find this to be an acceptable excuse for not employing someone, but The Spoiler gets the feeling that a football association that gives their most important job to a former drug addict with mental health issues probably runs things a little differently…
