    Amusing letter to the editor

    From football365.com:
    Is Titus Bramble Toon's Frank Grimes?
    Do you remember that episode of The Simpsons where Homer's incompetence is put on full show to the distress of the new employee Frank Grimes (or Grimesy as he affectionately liked to be called)?
    Grimesy is the model professional who is unfortunately placed alongside Homer in Sector 7G of the Nuclear powerplant and has to witness the oaf nearly burn the plant down, almost drink sulphuric acid and worst of all constantly chew up his pencils. By the end he is so exasperated with his fellow workmates blindness to Homer's very evident stupidity that he ends up losing his mind with rage and in the process electrocuting himself.
    Look, all I'm saying is don't be shocked to read of Shay Given's lifeless body being scraped from the foot of the Angel of the North anytime soon.

    Poor Given (who is the Grimes here, whatever the headline typo). And now he's been called up for international duty. Imagine what John O'Shea will do to him.
