Hero of the Week Runner Up

There have been two different interpretations of this but either way, Gunnersaurus emerges as a far more nuanced character than we had given him credit for.
As the two teams in the Arsenal-Chelsea game lined up yesterday, our dinosaur hero stuck out his huge green paw for John Terry to shake, only to take it back at the last moment leaving Terry's hand in the air and making him look every inch the tool he is. As one blogger pointed out, it was reminiscent of the cheeky Chelsea mascot who went to shake Steven Gerrard's hand a few years ago before doing the classic nose-thumbing maneouvere beloved of children everywhere. The same blogger also pointed out that Gunnersaurus was happy to shake the Chelsea skipper's hand earlier in the day and believes the later snub was a comment on the wrong-headedness of using the pre-match handshake to express your dislike of another player. Either way, who knew Gunnersaurus had such hidden depths? He'll be making speeches to the UN next. It makes up for always coming last in the Mascot Grand National every year anyway...
Legend status is duely endowed on the big green lunk.
