TODAY we reveal shocking CCTV footage of "Messie" – a freakish animal which is kicking up a stink in Merseyside’s sewers.

Terrified staff at North West water company United Utilities, whose close circuit cameras captured the mystery creature, said it was "far too big for a rat".

FAKE!!

Turns out it was just Andy Carroll on a night out.

Fake? No, it's just an unfortunate coincidence the story was published on April 1st.

I think I saw a critter that resembled that just a few nights ago walking out of a local bar!:eek:

May have explained a date I had once...

Yes, a fake indeed. The ethics of viral ad campaigns is becoming questionable imo. Incidentally, the animators should take more care in future: the long -legged grey skinned critters don't have tails. I ask you, you can't get the staff nowadays..
