Paul the Psychic Octopus has hit the headlines again. Not content with potential book and merchandising deals, and appearance in a film, Paul the Octopus has reportedly become the official ambassador for England 2018.
The football player John Barnes, a fellow England 2018 Ambassador, said:
“Paul the Octopus is undoubtedly one of the biggest names in football so news of him becoming an official England 2018 Ambassador is tremendous for the Back the Bid campaign.”
Shame they can’t get Paul onto the pitch -methinks he’d do a better job than the official England squad did in this year’s World Cup. Or better still, make Paul manager! Come on England!

Mahmoud Ahmadinejad attacks Octopus Paul
“Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, the Iranian leader, says Paul the Octopus, the sea creature that correctly predicted the outcome of World Cup games, is a symbol of all that is wrong with the western world.
He claims that the octopus is a symbol of decadence and decay among “his enemies”.
Paul, who lives at the Oberhausen Sea Life Centre, in Germany, won the hearts of the Spanish by predicting their World Cup victory.
He became an international star after predicting the outcome of all seven German World Cup matches accurately.
However, the Iranian president accused the octopus of spreading “western propaganda and superstition.” Paul was mentioned by Mr Ahmadinejad on various occasions during a speech in Tehran at the weekend.
“Those who believe in this type of thing cannot be the leaders of the global nations that aspire, like Iran, to human perfection, basing themselves in the love of all sacred values,” he said.”

Mani the Psychic Parakeet
“Paul the Psychic Octopus was left in the starting blocks as Singapore’s Mani the parakeet drew first blood in the battle of the World Cup tipsters.
While Weymouth-born Paul has correctly predicted the outcome of every Germany game in South Africa, 13-year-old Mani has become a celebrity in the Far East after picking the winners in the quarter-finals and tipping Spain to beat the Germans in the last four.
Mani’s owner, M Muniyappan places two cards in front of the bird’s cage and his feathered friend turns over who he thinks will win. And it’s good news for Holland against Spain on Sunday.
‘He’s a special bird,’ said Muniyappan, an 80-year-old fortune teller.
Mani has been helping Muniyappan predict the future for five years in front of a restaurant in the Little India neighborhood but this is the first time the parakeet has tried his wings at a sporting event.
‘People usually want help picking the lottery numbers, or when to get married,’ added Muniyappan, who was born in India and moved to Singapore in 1953.
‘Then gamblers started asking about the World Cup.’..”
