Mr & Mrs: Charlie & Sophie Leigh Adam

Liverpool’s Charlie Adam married his WAG of three years, Sophie Leigh (née Anderson), on the banks of Loch Lomond on 16 June 2012. Their reception followed immediately after – held at the five-star Cameron House – while our coverage of their big day did not (soz). The groom wore a traditional Scottish kilt, four bridesmaids donned £300 nude Loubs and the bride was outfitted in a fitted lacy number. You can rest easier, Kickettes, knowing her wedding gown wasn’t bad enough to kill anyone since zero fashion-related deaths were reported. That’s something to be thankful for.

Yesterday, all still seemed to be well with the newlyweds as they were out and about in the Pool shopping for designer knickers. We think Sophie was looking rather floaty and happy in her blazer, outdated skull scarf and metallic trainers. And also, nouveau riche. And giddy. And not worried about her recently cash rich bank account in the slightest. And so on.

Congratulations to the couple!

We’re aware there’s a new season. We think you’ll agree that’s fairly impressive by our standards. Images: AFP/Getty Images; Julian Finney/Getty Images.

Mark your day planners, Kickettes: new Ligue 1 season starts 10th August, the EPL & La Liga on 18th August and the Bundesliga & Serie A on the 25th.

As we’re sure you’ll understand, this is a tremendously busy time in the office. But in between our experiments in national flag nail art and undetected desk sleeping (neither have been particularly successful), we’ve compiled a list of things we’re looking forward to across the European leagues.

Read, digest, then add a few of your own, why dontcha?

You’d think he’d have the decency to wear some sort of disguise to hide his hawt, wouldn’t you? Our fantasy muscles are still undergoing extensive physio after this news broke.
