Marouane Fellaini's magnificent barnet

Everton just beat Portsmouth 1-0. Although Marouane Fellaini's hair only played a minor role in the victory, I think it is something to build a squad around. Jo is getting in on the act, although with less conviction (perhaps appropriate for a late second half substitute). I fear that it may be too late for Tim Howard, who had an excellent game. Who was the last top-flight footballer to play in a wig? Is it legal to do so? Something to think about...
It is a great start to a Saturday to roll out of bed into the lounge downstairs and watch the footie on ESPN2. Mel didn't feel the need to join me, but she did pretend to care about the result when I came back up.
Incidentally, on this showing Portsmouth do not seem as lost a cause as their points total suggests. Everton are now rightly back in the top half of the table after six games and a shaky start.
Off to the farmers' market now... I wonder if the signs risk an apostrophe?
