09.41 – Friday is a funny day for football news. Most of it tends to emerge much later in the day when the managers gives their press conferences ahead of the weekend’s fixtures. All I can tell you about Arsenal right now is that Arsene Wenger is pissed off because Gilberto may have to go to China to play a friendly for Brazil against….er….China. And, er that’s about it for now.
But fear not, I’ll just pop over the forum, and totally nick the stuff that the regular readers have been posting there. From Omid, comes this fantastic goal. Jonathan spotted another episode in ‘The Madness of King Houllier’ in The Sun. “Entitled” my arse, you giant eyed fool. And after a recent discussion about ne’erdowells and busybodies campaigning to have ‘The Two Towers’ movie renamed in light of the Sept 11th tragedy, comes this from Timo. So, for those of you who don’t visit the forum, look at all the fantastic stuff you’re missing out on. Go register now, join in, call someone a cunt. You’ll feel better. It’s good for what ails ya.
In other non-football nonsense, why not have a look at the top 20 ad campaigns of the last 20 years. They’re all fairly much American ads, but a lot of them made an impact beyond the US. In particular, this Coca-Cola ad, which Pepsi then tried to sully years later with a similar ad featuring David Beckham. No class those Pepsi people. Remember the Pepsi challenge? It was easy, just choose the one that tasted like goat’s piss strained through a hospital bed pan. That was your Pepsi.
The Chemical Brothers go back to basics with their new album. We do try and stay away from political stuff here, but this is kind of ironic. And finally, drunks are smashing into windows at a Swedish university. Not students though, crazy birds who are eating some kind of berry which makes them drunker than an Irishman at a free bar on St.Patrick’s Day and they’re exploding themselves off the windows. Cool. I hate birds.
Oh, and really finally this time, good work people.
