Who ate all the pies?...Your view

Andy_fordham200x150_5As you can see from this picture, Andy Fordham has lost a lot of weight in the last year - 10 stone to be precise. But "The Viking" will forever be remembered for his rather large presence on the oche.

After the darts player made an unsuccessful return this past week when he failed to qualify for the 2008 World Championships, it got us thinking about other sportsmen who enjoy their fair share of picnics.

You can view our selections here and then send in your thoughts below. Are there any others take-away lovers that we've missed out?

Fatty Foulkes played in goal - for England as well as Chelsea!
But my favourite who should be on the list is COLIN MILBURN - Northants & England. He scored 23 First-Class Centuries, and loved a good fry-up as much as a good slog. Sadly, his career was cut short when he lost an eye in a car accident.

What about Wayne Looney? He looks like a salad dodger. If he cut down on the e-numbers he might ge less yellows too....

There's been plenty more fat crickets than Gatting and the Bermudan fella. What about WG Grace? And Fatty Foulkes, who I believe used to play for Chelsea. Neville Southall was pretty tubby in his latter days too.

Darts players are athletes and it's great to see Fordham shed a few stone. Arrows should be an Olympic sport in time for the 2012 Games. As for the list - what about Jan Molby - I can't remember him ever leaving the centre-circle!
