Witness this extraordinary collection of Freudian slips, true confessions, double entendres and unintentional puns which demonstrates that sporting foot-in-mouth disease is far more rampant than mad cow disease. Players, coaches, commentators and journalists are all represented as well as some famous names who know little about sport but are always good for a quote.
