The only footballer in the World Cup to have been alive when England won the tournament left the current competition yesterday, a victim of abysmal refereeing and hapless defending. Bolton's Radhi Jaidi, who spent this match looking like an accident waiting to happen, eventually did prompt a calamity, but had Carlos Amarilla been remotely competent his error would not have been terminal to Tunisia's hopes.

That would make him at least 40.

thought he was 31,it could account for his lack of pace though! :-s

The grandad is not Jaidi but the Tunisian goalkeeper Ali Boumnijel.

The Times sees it differently

 

"Once again, Radhi Jaidi, the Bolton Wanderers defender, was in fine form."
