Dome Heads

Inspired by tonight's performances by Fulham's Andy Johnson and Paul Konchesky, and with consideration to the five minutes my monthly haircut takes nowadays, I offer to you my domehead XI. Due to the rapid timescale from initial idea to blog post, this is not a definitive list, just whatever I pulled from the random place that is my memory.

Fabien Barthez

French showman with a bad habit of saving his calamities for the big occasions.







Danny Mills

Tough-tackling full back turned radio pundit, who bizarrely managed to gain 19 England caps.






Franck Leboeuf

Cultured ex-Chelsea and France centre-back, now living in L.A.








Terry Mancini

Ex-Arsenal and QPR defender from a time when bald top and long sides were perfectly acceptable.







Paul Konchesky

Like Mills, ex-Charlton. Like Mills, a tough tackling full back. Like Mills, no hair.







Bobby Charlton.

The legendary 'comb-over'. Nuff said.








Thomas Gravesen

Danish hard-man who was for a spell part of Real Madrid's 'galactico' line up








David Armstrong

Fan's favourite for many years at Middlesboro and Southampton in the seventies and eighties, with 3 England caps.





Attilio Lombardo

Former Sampdoria, Juventus and, er, Crystal Palace wingman
with 19 Italian caps.







Dion Dublin


Popular centre forward for a string of clubs, who started and finished his 20 year career at Norwich City.





Andy Johnson

Birmingham City fans will remember the young blond-locked Johnson. Everton and Fulham fans wont.







Anybody I've missed?
