12.03 – A slow slow Saturday in close season. Not only is it close season, but the sheer boredom is added to by the fact there is international football on, hence a lack of any kind of club related news.
There’s some boring crap story about Ken Bates giving David Dein a hard time over his FA role. It’s about as interesting as ‘The life and times of Phil Collins’. And erm…that’s about it. So today we give you the chance to make your own Arseblog entry (fnarr).
