08.46 – So once again we’re into the doldrums. Proper football stops and international football takes over. Turkey v England is interesting only because there might be some good fighting. If Ireland beat Russia/Switzerland and Switzerland/Russia fail to score 15 goals in one half against some other cunts, then the Republic will qualify. The French boys are going to take part in a nothing game, as they’ve already qualified, so hopefully they won’t have to play the full 90. But generally, ZZZZZZZZ.
As always it seems to come at a bad time for us. Two great results in the league against Newcastle and Liverpool and you just want the next game against Chelsea to come straight away.
Last night I had a dream that Sylvain Wiltord got injured and would be out for 3 months. He got his foot caught under a lawn mower and shredded his toes.
Robert Pires on his Liverpool goal: “I was surprised by my goal. I don’t normally shoot from so far out. It was more like the sort of goal Thierry Henry scores.” Ray Parlour on the Liverpool game “Getting three points at Liverpool when they really wanted it and played well is a massive result for us.” More good stuff from our pal Henry in the Telegraph.
John Halls has joined Stoke on a one month loan. Apparently Arsenal and Man United are locked in a transfer battle over 16 year old Wimbledon midfielder Lee Martin.
And there you have it. A new job starts today. Teaching. Off to find my corduroy jacket with the leather elbow patches. And my morphine.
