‘The Away Days Gang’ - the infamous group(s) of armed raiders who ‘earn’ their coin targeting north-west based footballers playing away matches - have been caught slipping lately, apparently having forgotten Phil Jagielka hasn’t kicked a ball in six months.

However, their ingenious ruse is still winning fans amongst the robbing community in the south-east. According to Essex police, career crims have been lining up to pilfer from Essex’s finest, with a spate of identical ‘away days’ burglaries breaking out. Hide the Baby Bentleys!

John McCain, Jonathan Ross and anyone involved in the world banking system may not agree, but 2008 has been a fantastic year. We saw a brilliant European Championships tournament (unencumbered by the inevitable disappointment of seeing England crash out), a thrilling Champions League campaign, and we are currently witnessing one of the most exciting Premier League seasons since its inception.

Away from the field, we’ve seen countless incidents of players disgracing themselves in nightclubs, Cristiano Ronaldo has put away more WAGs than anyone thought possible, and a website that tells you everything you need to know about the beautiful game experienced its first year in business.

In celebration of all things football in 2008, we’ve lovingly compiled a quiz that should separate the Porfessor Wengers from the Alan Smiths out there. Have a crack at it, try not to cheat and please send it to a friend if you enjoy it…

Would you rather share a shower with 10 men, or this woman?

That was the question facing Rafael van der Vaart, back in the days when he was playing for Hamburg in Germany. No prizes for guessing which option Rafael chose.

Former Hamburg manager Huub Stevens has revealed in his autobiography that Van der Vaart once deliberately got booked so he could go and party with his lovely missus, Sylvie. Fair enough - just look at her.

Before Hamburg’s game at home to Duisburg last season, Stevens said to his assistant: “Van der Vaart will deliberately pick up a fifth yellow card. His wife is celebrating her 30th birthday and he wants to be there.”

Stevens was proved right. Van der Vaart was booked for kicking the ball away after the ref had blown his whistle. Job done.

Three days later the team played Hertha in Berlin – without the suspended Rafael, who was busy drinking champagne at his wife’s party.

The ladies - they cannot resist this handsome devil

Sampdoria striker Antonio Cassano is known for his short temper and on-pitch hissy fits, yet in his autobiography, the 26-year-old reveals his near-legendary inability to keep his pants on when attractive women are around. Cassano, who once called the irrefutably-gifted Rosaria Cannavò his girlfriend, claims to have put away somewhere in the region of 700 ladies. Our German friends at Bild report:

“I was engaged four times in eleven years, and I experienced some adventures. I slept with between 600 and 700 girls, 20 of whom belong to the world of the show business.”

During his time at Real Madrid - where his constant unprofessional behaviour and displays of “disrespect” towards Fabio Capello saw him sidelined and suspended - Cassano enjoyed some of his best steamrollering years. The Italian says sex before games was frequent, and he could invite whomever he wanted to the team hotel. Once he had had his way with a lady, he claims he would exchange them with a friend who worked at a hotel for “three or four croissants.” He called sex and a meal “the perfect night,” but neglected to mention how football fitted into the equation.

Nowadays, Casanno is settled down with Carolina Marcialis, a 17-year-old water polo player.
