Football fans who can remember back into the mid 2000's can recall a time where Emile Heskey was widely lauded as a striker who "couldn't hit a cow's arse with a banjo". Well, things have been on the rise for poor aul Emile recently, proving to folks that he can hit a cow's arse with a banjo before sealing a short term move to Bolton.
Bolton fan and comedian Paddy McGuiness can remember back a few years and was obviously recalling the times when Heskey wasn't the best finisher in football when he made this bold proclamation.

In case you missed one of the greatest goals ever scored, Heskey came on and scored within minutes of making his debut to equalise for Bolton. Not one to go back on his word, McGuinness came through this afternoon:
