08.49 – Random blue leotards still present family entertainment. Hope promotion will take place around the evil mackerel.
After an incident that happened on the 10th of August, the super efficient FA have announced that Sol Campbell will face his disciplinary hearing over his little flick out at Djemba Djemba blah blah fucking blah. I’m predicting a nice let-off for Sol now. Not even the FA could be stupid enough to hand him anything more than a small fine and a warning when he’s due to fly out the next day to play for England. Not that I’m suggesting Sol is anything other than a consumate professional who gives his all in every single game, just that it would be a bit stupid to piss him off by giving him a ban for it. Coz it would piss him off.
Who the fuck is Patrice Evra and why should I care?
Edu has been talking about getting picked for Brazil. He’s done his cause no harm with the way he’s been playing. I like him a lot I have to say, he’s an intelligent player, very good defensively – although people tend to gloss over that part of his game – a great passer and he gets well stuck in. I prefer him alongside Vieira to Gilberto, and it speaks volumes than when the two Brazlians play together, he assumes the role of senior partner.
Former Arsenal striker, and brother of Doctor Who Tom, Joe Baker has died at age 63 after catching a lethal and quite literally fatal dose of death. He scored 100 goals in 156 games for the Gunners.
Pots and kettles galore as Emmanuel Petit says “What happened in Arsenal’s game at United was uncalled for. EVERYBODY involved is guilty. Players have a duty to show the public we are capable of controlling ourselves.”
His name is Rio and he’s about to get banned. Dopey Stupid Rio claims he forgot to turn up to give a mandatory drugs sample, and now faces being kicked out of the England squad and could face a 2 year ban from the game. Man Utd fans gutted? Not too many. Rio said he was ‘moving house’. Riiight. This one is set to run for a bit.
Finally for today, A full court press – a column by Safety.
