The France team has been thrown into turmoil before tonight's game against Namibia following the revelation that, allegedly, one of it's World Cup team is an Englishman.
Track back to early 1977, the clubhouse was rocking after another French victory at Twickenham. (3-4).
(Remember folks, this is 'West London Old Skool' - Old Gaytonians - although many were not called either Tony or Ian...) Anyway, undigressing, there was a young 'toyboy' hanging out down there by the name of Chris 'Shabby' Walters. Louche in extremis, it was not long before the French
supporters that travelled to Twickenham and then to the Club for a beer were enraptured by his caveman like looks (let alone his habits). This was a man who licked raw eggs from tables, ate curry and drank anything (including your beer if you put it down). Fast forward to 2007 and the scandal erupts! What happened? Did 'Shabby' really do a 'pas des deux' with the young impressionable caveman lover lady from Valence? Why was she there anyway - it's miles from Paris?) Bernard Laporte has left the door open for explanations but we can only speculate that Shabby has been reincarnated...Doppelganger! Sebastian Chabal's grandmother was unavailable for comment last night - she is pictured here to indicate the hereditary trend that might help unravel the mystery. Watch the news after tonight's game for further information.
