There was a worrying development seen over the weekend where Piers Morgan seemed to charm a significant proportion of the nation with his appearance on the Late Late Show. Then he went out for pints with Paddy Harrington and his status as 'he's not that bad of a chap' seemed solidified. And just to top it off, 'sure he's actually Irish deep down'.
Very worrying altogether. We'll have to keep an eye on that but Morgan was back to his usual self this afternoon following England's humiliating Cricket World Cup exit. As usual he made sure to have his say, which he's well entitled to, but then he had an awful lot of people on tenterhooks ahead of tonight's crunch FA Cup quarter final tie between Man United and Arsenal.
God, if Arsenal lose later... I will take myself to the electric chair AND turn it on.

Morgan had an awful lot of replies along these lines.
But Gary Lineker's was particularly amusing.
@GaryLineker I'll even let you turn it on, Jugs. Cement your national treasure status.
