Nani / Daniela Martins (Manchester United)

Having been made aware of WAGs & Stags and its potential to catapult its stars into the home of millions, the PR representative of Daniela Martins, the infinitely fairer half of Manchester United's Nani, wasted little time in getting in touch. United had started the new campaign with Federico Macheda and Sophie Houghton up top but after an opening day defeat to Joey Barton and Amanda Harrington, murmurs of change began to circulate at Old Trafford. Sir Alex has since said he retains utmost faith in the young pair but after consulting his team of scouts in Portugal, has decided Nani and his misses deserve a run in the first team. Daniela is a regular on the beauty pageant scene but claims she's not a fan of the WAG moniker. A degree in journalism suggests she's far from being mere eye candy but whether she marks her hubby out of ten after every performance is unconfirmed at the time of going to press.

Ronnie Baxter / Nikki Sanderson (Blackpool)

Blackpool's unlikely ascent to the Premier League has led many to conclude they are not anything like ready for top flight football. Ian Holloway has been desperately scouring the market for new recruits and we can testify attracting big names to the town that brought you rock and the tower is no easy feat. We've trawled back editions of the Blackpool Gazette in a bid to bring WAG-style glamour to the seaside resort but turned up only blind alleys. Even finding celebrity fans has proved tough, with cauliflower head Bill Beaumont the best we could muster. It was then with absolute delight that we discovered one-time Coronation Street actress and all-round glamour puss Nikki Sanderson hails from within spitting distant of Bloomfield Road. Fans of the cobbled streets will know Sanderson's character Candice played a WAG on the show, dating Danny Baldwin - one of Weatherfield Town's brightest talents no less. Whether Nikki is pleased with her stag - Blackpool-born darts hunk Ronnie Baxter - has not been confirmed at the time of going to press.
