I always watch the FA Cup final, no matter who’s taking part. Always have. Not sure that I always will though. Yesterday’s final was like watching Phil Collins singing Michael Bolton’s greatest hits with Celine Dion’s voice while he anally raped a puppy. Too painful for words. The only good thing was seeing Dennis Wise make a total twat of himself again, it’s just a shame he didn’t get a red card.
In Arsenal stuff this morning there’s not a whole lot going on. There’s a rather good interview with David Dein in the Observer though, in which he talks about how Arsene Wenger has revolutionised the club. I’d always assumed AW’s motivational talks were slightly more cerebral than “He told them they could carry on with the burgers and the lager and end up in the Third Division, or adopt his philosophy, extend their careers at the top level and make a few million quid” , but it seems to have worked. He also talks about the new stadium and leaving Highbury. Interesting stuff.
In other brief news, Ray Parlour has been linked with a move to Middlesbrough by a weird looking bloke, while Martin Keown could be part of the West Brom side to get relegated straight back down the the Nationwide as Gary Megson looks to bolster his defence. Apart from that there appears to be little else going on, so I must go down to the beach, get the papers and drink a beer or two as I prepare myself for my final week of teaching. On Thursday I’m going to be unemployed.
Wooooo Hoooooo.
