What have Theo Walcott and Mr T got in common?

[Snafu03]

They're both black and aint gettin' on no plane!

[piggynose]

aint getting on no plane suggests 2 negatives, which means a positive, so who´s getting on the plane now?

[4getmenot]

true and they always did get him on it

[flobadob]

Is he not out in Africa at the moment? How is he gonna get home?

[Snafu03]

LOL its a joke - dont over analyse it! But for the pedantic anonymous day trip out I can offer this in way of an explanation;

Its Mr T's catch phrase, although grammatically incorrect its used in context;

Not sure of Mr Walcotts EXACT geographic location but this quote from BBCs website may go some way to help;

'Walcott said in a statement: "I am very disappointed not to be included in the squad going out to South Africa, but completely respect Mr Capello's decision.'

[flobadob]

It was Austria he was in with the rest of the squad, so either way he's probably taking a plane. Pedantic Pat and dat is dat.

Theo Walcott, like Rio Ferdinand, Ashley Cole, David James, Aaron Lennon and indeed Barack Obama, is mixed race.

Never say never. A few more injuries in training and there might yet be a place for him.
