Caption Competition: The biggest plank in the Man City dressing room

Professional footballers are a strange bunch, but it seems like a Manchester City are a little bit weirder than the rest. Shaun Wright-Phillips, Joe Hart and Micah Richards are all trying to out-do each other in the art of planking.

Not sure what this latest trend is? Here’s Wright-Phillips demonstrating it. Essentially, you just have to lie as straight as possible, like a plank of wood, in a number of different settings. SWP has gone for the bat look here, but there are many different attempts making it onto Twitter.

So, what do you think of the art of planking? Are they just all a load of planks? Most importantly, can you come up with a funny caption for this picture of SWP?
