    Re: GOAT footballer, solved at last by the POPE

    Who was the worst Pope of all time?

    Pope John X11, who was alleged to be a mass fornicator (his niece included) and who turned the sacred palace into a whorehouse - and who allegedly blinded, murdered and castrated his detractors. Oh, and he was supposedly killed by the husband of the woman who was caught in bed with.

    Pope Urban VI, who allegedly complained that he did not hear enough screaming when Cardinals who had conspired against him were tortured.

    or

    Pope Stephen VI, who allegedly had his predecessor Pope Formosus exhumed, tried, de-fingered, briefly reburied, and thrown into the Tiber.

    I can almost hear Alan Freeman doing a countdown.....

    I’m so glad I reread it and noticed to ‘de’ in front of ‘fingered’
