I had typed out a whole other piece this morning about writing this site and the many and varied joys it brings me, but I decided to delete it and post this instead. Which is a bit of a shame for you because the other piece was far more interesting and decidedly more witty, but thems the breaks I’m afraid. So as you read this, see if you can make yourself feel empty inside. Where there should have been the warm Ready Brekky glow of a fine blog entry (fnarr), there is now only the hollow feeling akin to that of a sick child after a bath with Michael Jackson. I probably should have deleted that bit too. Oh well.
Not much Arsenal related stuff going on this morning. David Bentley was Man of the Match for England U-21s lat night as they beat Holland 3-2. The young Arsenal man scored a fab goal too. Patrick Vieira reveals he does indeed have the biggest penis of all the Arsenal players, some information that I’m sure you couldn’t live without. Did they sall whack them out on a table to measure them or something? Edu misses out on Brazil and while he’s always been a great pro and not complained, who could blame him if he was getting itchy feet, especially when Barcelona are said to be interested?
Has Myles lost the plot? And speaking of mad people, it’s not Arsenal related, but this came up on the forums yesterday and it reminded me what a good read this site is. Finnish Crystal Palace player Aki Riihilahti is as mad as a hatter, but extremely entertaining. Well worth checking out.
So, most of you this morning are logging on with baited breath to see if you’ve won yourself a copy of the 1971 FA Cup final DVD with thanks to Nostalgic TV. There were hundreds of correct responses, and the answer to where Arsenal clinched the league title was of course ‘White Hart Lane’. Har di Har. I then went to this site which generated 3 random numbers, and the winners of the DVDs are:
- Lucas
- Phill Brown
- Terry August
Well done, I’ll be in touch with you this morning, a copy of the DVD will be winging its way to you shortly.
And do keep an eye on the Nostalgic TV site; 71 and 79 were good years for the Gunners, although it might be worth forgetting 72 and 78.
My cold has now progressed to the point where the luminous snot is a crusty mass when you wake up in the morning. Hurrah. I think I might need a life transplant.
