Iโ€™m fascinated by Joe Rodon. He strikes me as a deeply unusual man. Shouting his head off all the time, doing the weird little hands on knees thing before kick-off, faffing about with his hair, shouting his head off, misplacing headers from attacking corners, shouting his head off. Judging by the recent evidence, Iโ€™m not the only person fascinated by Joe Rodon.

Turns out so is Ao Tanaka. Probably.
