Ian Wright - the embarrassing celebrity dad
I can just imagine it.
Shaun Wright-Phillips is enjoying himself with a few of his pals at a birthday party, when some cheesy 80s pop kicks in through the speakers.
Suddenly, a look of sheer horror descends over Shaun's face, as he sees his dad, footballer-turned-presenter Ian Wright, leap to the floor and start flapping around with some embarrassing dad dancing (most probably in the manner of his Chicken Tonight adverts).
There's howls of laughter from his mates, and all poor Shaun can do is hope that the ground swallows him up.
Wright snr's latest outburst in defence of his talented son, is further proof that he's turning into the celebrity world's answer to an embarrassing dad.
On this occasion, the Arsenal legend has described Manchester City chiefs Garry Cook and Brian Marwood as being 'just a bit full of themselves' for treating Wright-Phillips 'like a youth-team player' over the England winger's Eastlands contract wrangle.
Previously, Wright took a very public dislike to former England boss Sven Goran Eriksson largely over the treatment his son received during the Swede's time in charge of the Three Lions.
Of course, Wright just has his son's interest at heart and is probably doing what any other father would do, only that he's in the public eye.
But Wright-Phillips is 28-years-old, he's made almost 300 Premier League appearances and has over 30 caps for England. Surely he's big enough to fight his own battles?

down, but stretch your body as far as possible without straining yourself. Do not remove your hands from behind your head. Use your hands to help push your head down further. When you have reached as far down as possible, return to the starting position. You will perform this exercise with more ease after one or two weeks. Perform this exercise 5 times.
