‘I Had Séx With An Arsenal Striker’- Homoséxual Councillor Reveals

A Councillor who was once the highest-paid in the UK has made the startling claim — that he slept with an Arsenal footballer.

Brian Coleman, who calls himself the 'King of Bling', made the bizarre revelation about his séx life in a blog post.

The openly gay councillor refused to give any hint as to the player’s identity from the Premiership team, other than saying he was a striker.

Mr Coleman, 51, used to be the mayor of Barnet in North London and now serves as an independent on the Council.

His unusual claim last week appeared in a unrelated posting on Barnet FC's plans to move stadiums.

“You think I am a complete idiot?” – Wenger explains

Arsene Wenger, has offered an explained why he lost his cool at a press conference yesterday, ahead of a crucial Champions League clash with Bayern Munich.

The Arsenal boss, blew his lid, after he was questioned about signing a new deal with the club and has now insinuated that those reports are targeted at making fans furious

“Why does this story just come out when we lose a big game,” questioned Wenger. “In your opinion? You think I am so naive that I don’t see what is behind that? You think I am a complete idiot?

“The lie is targeted to hurt. It’s easy to say people are not happy and, on top of that, to say he’s extending the contract. That’s what I mean. I’ve worked here for 16 years and when I say I deserve more credit, that’s not about respect and everybody saying I’m doing well. It is morally. I think that’s right.

“I am angry because when you give wrong information like that, there’s not only wrong information behind that. What I don’t accept is lies and when the target behind it is to manipulate people.”

While a faction of the party is already identifying with the newly formed APC, Governor Peter Obi of Anambra State has insisted that the All Progressive Grand Alliance (APGA) has never been consulted or participated in any discussion about any merger, alliance or any union with any political party or parties.

The governor, who was speaking at the weekend after the national caucus meeting of party, said “there are no two APGA, just one individual APGA; the Governor of Imo State has sympathy for the merger arrangements… It is better to be a majority in a minority than to be a minority in a majority, because nobody would hear your voice, we want something that would allow our voice to be heard in this context called Nigeria and we believe APGA would give us that opportunity”.

In the meantime, the party has passed a vote of confidence on the leadership of Governor Peter Obi as the national leader of the party, and Governor Obi has insited that the party was not in any merger, but that individual members could have their personal arrangements. He said, “the merger says you have to surrender your Logo and Identity, that we can’t do, but members can surrender themselves.”

lady beats Cossy's boobs

A fan forwarded some photos of a relatively unknown female singer to TON. She's as 'endowed’ or even more ‘endowed’ than the notorious Cossy Orjiakor and I hear this babe said she’s ready to take over from Cossy as the queen of boóbs in the entertainment industry.

One wonders why anyone would want to emulate the lifestyle of Cossy not to talk of taking over from her. Anyway, see her photos below. Please, it's for adults only....

I hear her name is something like X-risabi. Any one knows more about her?
