Another gay icon captains England
Following in the wake of David Beckham, apparently the England women’s side now has a gay icon wearing the armband. Kelly Smith has been voted “the most lesbilicious UK sportswoman” in a poll by lesbian website Lesbilicious
Smith picked up 31 per cent of the vote, putting her just ahead of Dame Kelly Holmes (must be something in the name) to take the title. Rosie Kirk of Lesbilicious said: “British lesbians are certainly spoilt for choice when it comes to deciding who are our most lesbilicious athletes, with the Beijing Olympics bringing several new faces on the scene.

A post-goal celebration pile-on is not unusual on a football pitch, but you don’t expect to see the manager leading the charge. Jose Mourinho got a bit overexcited after Maicon scored a late winner for Inter Milan against Siena and flung himself on the back of his underdressed hero. His dry cleaner will be pleased with the extra work anyway!
Stuttgart man loves the taste of ink on skin after finding the net
Roberto Hilbert celebrated his goal for Stuttgart against Standard Liege last night by puckering up and making out with his tattoo. Possibly even more worrying is the fact that team-mate Sami Khedira seems to be weighing up whether he wants a piece of the action. I suppose we should be thankful for small mercies and just be happy that the tattoo was only on his forearm.

Becks’ new team-mate looks forward to eyeing up his tackle
It is not long now until David Beckham links up with his new team-mates at AC Milan, and one in particular is waiting with bated breath for the LA Galaxy man’s arrival. Striker Marco Borriello cannot wait to find out just how good Armani’s Photoshop skills are.
He said: “I must admit I have a dressing room curiosity over Beckham. I want to see if he is equipped as he is in the Armani underwear adverts.”

It seems this was the weekend that Portsmouth striker and unabashed man whore Jermain Defoe realised that there was no member of Chinawhites’ female clientele that he had not already slept with. The England international is now set to start working his way through Premier League match officials, starting by courting Chris Foy at Fratton Park yesterday afternoon.
It looks like the refs are going to be harder work than his nightclub girls - look, he actually has to talk to Foy!
Feel the burn, boys
The absolute professionals at Benfica won’t go near a football until they have warmed-up. Felipe Bastos and Gilles Binya are particularly to eager that every single part of their body is limbered up at the start of training! And they are both looking rather smug about it too!
Thanks to Off The Post reader Nuno for the spot. If you see a Hard Tackle let us know.
Cough please, Mr Giggs
When you have played football for as long as Ryan Giggs, you are bound to have a closer relationship with the match officials than some of the new kids on the block. That’s why referees such as Alan Wiley often take the opportunity to touch Giggs up in the middle of a match.
Brazilian victory cuddle
After netting the winning goal for Internacional against Estudiantes in the Sudamericana Cup final last night, Nilmar celebrated by hugging and kissing a considerably shorter team-mate while having his backside caressed.
