War of The Roses
The following season, Casper's career took a turn for the worse when it was discovered that these two boys had more than just football and friendship in common - they shared the same father.
Due to a drop in form he was lined up to be sold to Millwall until a bust up took place between him and Eugene during a match between Charlton and Harchester United. Cass' jealousy of Eugene, his father's other son, mounted which resulted in him enacting a devastating revenge on his brother and ending Eugene's big money move to Liverpool. This tore their friendship apart. Ironically their bust up against Harchester was the first game both brothers wore the same surname on the back of their shirt.
Casper was then loaned out to Millwall for the rest of the season and then in 2001 was sold to Tottenham but only stayed there for one season. In 2002 he joned Italian side Roma in the aftermath of the death of his father and being unable to reconcile with his brother. Although he scored goals for both Spurs and Roma he was inconsistent and was not meeting his potential.

Famous quotes containing the words war of, war and/or roses:
“Then think I thus: sith such repair,
So long time war of valiant men,
Was all to win a lady fair,
Shall I not learn to suffer then,
And think my life well spent to be,
Serving a worthier wight than she?”
—Henry Howard, Earl Of Surrey (1517?–1547)
“A democracy which makes or even effectively prepares for modern, scientific war must necessarily cease to be democratic. No country can be really well prepared for modern war unless it is governed by a tyrant, at the head of a highly trained and perfectly obedient bureaucracy.”
—Aldous Huxley (1894–1963)
“No one can understand Paris and its history who does not understand that its fierceness is the balance and justification of its frivolity. It is called a city of pleasure; but it may also very specially be called a city of pain. The crown of roses is also a crown of thorns. Its people are too prone to hurt others, but quite ready also to hurt themselves. They are martyrs for religion, they are martyrs for irreligion; they are even martyrs for immorality.”
—Gilbert Keith Chesterton (1874–1936)
