    Not related, but my classic was when Rodney Marsh mentioned the Toon Army at the time of the Indian Ocean earthquake and tsunami in 2004.

    Just goes to show how a misplaced joke can cost you big time. He's been scraping a living in reality TV even since.

    However, he did have form for putting his foot in his mouth, for example the conversation he had with his then manager at Man City, Tony Book, that lead to Rodney's departure from Maine Road.

    If you think I'm f$#king useless it's not going to work. Do you want to take it back?. (Book)
    No chance. In fact, thinking about it more, you're not that good. (Marsh)

    If he’s been scraping a living in reality tv I’d like to be a pound behind him.
