Soccer Extreme : With anger over ‘that handball’ still at boiling point, the Irish have turned their frustration towards a vacuum cleaner brand.It seems that the smiley-faced cleaner known as ‘Henry’ is being persecuted due to it sharing the same name as the French striker Thierry Henry.
A worker at an Irish government building in Dublin told The Sun: “Several cleaners say they’re unhappy working with vacuum cleaners with the cheat’s name written on them.
“It’s bizarre because the machines have nothing whatsoever to do with Thierry Henry.
“Some have painted over the name on the cleaner and wiped the smile off its little red face.
“It just shows how the frustration caused by that goal has got to everyone in Ireland.”
The sales of the Henry vacuum cleaners have also reportedly taken a dip in Ireland since the controversial handball goal saw the country fail to qualify for the 2010 World Cup.Last week saw both the Irish Captain Robbie Keane, and Thierry Henry himself, call for a replay of the controversial play-off match.
With innocent vacuum cleaners now also caught in the firing line, will justice be allowed to prevail? (thedailydust)
