Vanessa Perroncel still wants Wayne  Even though Vanessa Perroncel humiliated Wayne Bridge when she had an affair with his teammate John Terry, and potentially breaking up his marriage, Perroncel still declared that she loves Bridge and would love to get back together with him for the sake of their son who is three years old.

Perroncel is said to have told friends that she realizes Bridge is hurting terribly but that she still loves him and she would love to have him back for her and son Jaydon.  She went on to say that she realizes it must have been a terrible week for him as she has been forced to read stories about her sex life that she regards mostly as lies.

Friends of Perroncel stated that she was devastated when the public discovered her affair with Terry.  Since the news came out she has only seen Bridge once briefly when he came to pick up her son.

Perroncel’s close friend Antonia Graham stated that she never stopped loved Bridge but is unsure if he still feels the same way about her.  Her friend also stated that their split during the summer was due to a large number of small things, and that she still wants to spend her life with him despite breaking off the engagement.

Terry also suffered from the fallout with his wife taking a period away from him in Dubai to consider if she will leave him or not, and the loss of his job as England’s captain last Friday.

The ref’s a woman !  At 9:15pm Tuesday one of the last reminders of male dominance in the sporting world fell to the ground when referee Tony Bates was forced to leave the field with a calf strain, after which a petite woman with dark hair took over to help finish the Sky Blues’ game against Nottingham Forest.

Bates was replaced by his referee assistant, Amy Fearn, who is has now become the first woman to ever referee in a Football League game.  The 31 year old from Loughborough who’s day job is as a Rolls Royce financial analyst is a part of feminist history that will have males re-evaluating their role in the sporting world.

This is not the first time than a woman has landed on a line, however as Postmistress Wendy Toms from Dorset was on the Premier League in the nineties and Fearn herself has also worked the line using her maiden name, Rayner, as an assistant for the last four years.

Fearn is certainly not a stranger to the game since she has been refereeing since age 14; however, it was still a leap for women in the sporting world.  She stated that it was a great experience to get the chance to referee at a Football League and laughingly said that she could get used to being in charge every week.

She also added that she did not notice at the time that the crowd had reacted to the change, but was glad that nothing controversial occurred while she was in charge of the match for twenty minutes.

Garry Mann may not go to jail in Portugal over football hooliganism  Garry Mann, an avid England football fan, has received a temporary stay of extradition from the European Court of Human Rights over a prison sentence for a riot he participated in while in Portugal during the 2004 UEFA Euro tournament.

The Court of Human Rights stated that it was not ready to make a decision on his case until every domestic legal procedure was attempted.  Instead, it referred the question of his extradition and punishment back to UK courts, which should hear the case before the close of March.

A spokeswoman for the court stated that the High Court will still hold a hearing and thus the Human rights judge are not yet ready to hear his case.  She also stated that at the moment Mr. Mann will not face imminent extradition due to the fact that UK legal procedures must be completed first.

The Portuguese authorities have requested Mann’s extradition due to the fact he did not serve his two year term in prison in the UK after his deportation for violence that he allegedly helped create in the Alburgerira Algarve resort in June of 2004.

Mann, who is 51, has maintained that he was not given a fair trial since he was taken into custody by the UK in March of last year.  He said that he is stuck in limbo between the court systems, which has taken away his ability to work and provide for his family, as well as offer his family any type of closure to the situation.

John Terry’s wife leaves him and flies to Dubai  John Terry’s wife left Britain for Dubai after declaring to Terry that their marriage was over.

Toni Terry, his wife, was reportedly destroyed after finding out that the star Chelsea footballer was cheating on her with his team-mate Wayne Bridge’s girlfriend.

After telling Terry that she wanted a divorce she took her twins to Dubai.

Friends reported that Toni was torn apart by the news that Terry had cheated twice a week for four months on her with Vanessa Perroncel. This is in the face of Terry’s Dad of the Year award in 2009.

According to her friends, the last straw came when she learned that Terry had arranged for Perroncel to have an abortion after Terry found out she had become pregnant.

Toni left Saturday night for the Gulf accompanied by her three year old twins and her mother.  At the moment she is looking at retaining the services of Fiona Shackleton, a top divorce lawyer, to ensure she gets at least half of Terry’s fortune.

Terry is thought to earn about £8m per year.  He also enjoys several sponsorship deals with Umbro, Nationwide, and Samsung as well as owning two lavish properties and a handful of luxury cars.

However, legal experts say that if Toni files for divorce his lifestyle may end given that he could owe over £10m to her. A source close to Toni stated that she has had more than she can take and is fairly certain that she wants a divorce at this point.
