!!!!UPDATE!!!!! "Colin Healy made Cesc Fabregas look like Colin Healy" 13:16 - Sep 24 with 17010 viewsSwailsey

2025 update:

I have been contacted by an anonymous source who claims that none other than Adrian Chiles uttered the phrase “Colin Healy made Cesc Fabregas look like Colin Healy” during ITV’s coverage.

I’ve scoured YouTube but cannot find it.

Is anyone who is savvier than me able to locate it/a transcript?

We’re so bloody close.

——

Right, FFS, once and for all.

Please can we figure out who said this first?

"Colin Healy made Cesc Fabregas look like Colin Healy"

Who said that? It's the best post on here I've ever seen and I want to know so I can include it in every year's polls.

Before you ask:

1) I've Googled it. It brings up my signature.
2) I can't find it in the search history.
3) I asked Phil in a thread. He ignored me, just because there was a match on.
4) It wasn't me, but I will claim it if no-one owns up.

Sort of line Mullet would use.

Hold up.

Were you really? Genuinely, the man had become one of my favorite cult players for us over time - purely because I felt he never got a fair run in the team here. There was a patch under Jewell where he and Bullard were fantastic.

I signed him on every FM game since that time and always felt he was hard done by here.

Pass it on!


I certainly was, and I’ll pass on that message the next time I talk to him.

You've made this 32 year old feel like a 14 year again.

Maybe don't tell him that bit.

I think Cesc compared our players to Austin Healy rather than Colin.
