Big Phil's Foul Mouth
Scolari set to wash his gob out with filth
Portuguese coach Luis "Big Phil" Filipe Scolari has said that there won't be any language concerns should he become England's next manager. He claims to be capable of swearing as much as any Englishman.The Brazilian world cup winner is usually a soft spoken and genteel fellow who is well known for his temperant vocabulary. This has led to critics claiming that he won't be able to cut it in the profane environment of an English dressing room.
Profound profanities
An FA insider told The Onion Bag's Larry Gak, that the newly formed England Manager Finding Commitee are concerned that Big Phil's chaste and polite mannerisms will rule him out. "Sven [Goran Eriksson] came across as a quiet and civilised man but was in fact a hard drinking, hard swearing, lout", he confided. "He was very popular with the players and the ladies loved him for it. We think that there will be a bad language barrier with Scolari."However, Scolari's agent, the Right Reverand Julius Limbani of the St Barnabus Parish in Lisbon, is adament that his client can swear harder than a sailor who has mistaken a beehive for a public lavvy. "In the name of God, I swear Phil can swear", he told his flock. "F**k me sideways and call me a stinking, s**tty c**t if I'm lying."
