Are there any footballers who are notoriously religious Christians? Like real bible-thumpers? Peter Knowles from decades back was the best example of that; he actually packed in his career. I think Carlos Roa did also.

Not the players but the son of God was often found at our matches last season, many times I heard fans say "Jesus Christ what's he doing there".

Kaká is into all that to the max, isn't he?

 

El-Zhar always blesses himself when he's coming on the pitch as well.

 

Him and almost every European mainland player.

He is. He doesn't cross himself but opens his palms towards his face and says a prayer.

 

"Oh Allah thank you for saving me from splinters I'd have sustained had I sat any longer on the bench."

I think Jermaine Defoe is. I remember seeing him interviewed about it on Football Focus.

I saw that and it annoyed me as at the time he was nailing any Zoo/Nuts model that moved.

Unless he was using the mags as a Littlewoods catalouge he had to be on the raz to pull these girls.

Glenn Hoddle.

 

Wasn't there a guy who used to refuse to play on Sunday (or was it Saturday? ) because it was the holy day of his religion ?

 

Edit : just googled that and it was actually the Scottish rugby player Euan Murray ( http://anotherking.c...lay-on-sabbath/ )

Our own devout/staunch Andrew Trimble used to use some very, em, 'jesuitical' arguments about playing rugby on the Sabbath as well.

Yes.

Didn't Carlos Roa decide to quit just before the year 2000 when he was 29 years old to prepare for the apocalypse? He was devout Seventh-day Adventis (is that Christian?)

 

And I am sure that Kezman, the former Chelsea player quit to become a Monk

* more often when from a South American or other latin background. The French, Dutch, Germans etc are no more religious then we are on the whole.
