May the Guinness flow freely and your shites turn as black as Satan’s ringpiece on this most sacred of all days. Our third St Patrick’s Day here on Arseblog and while most of you around the world are in work, as normal, my fellow Irish men and women are by now on their ninth pint. The only people working today are barmen and in solidarity with my countrymen I too am going to do nothing but drink beer all day and not go to the parade coz it’s a load of shite. I was going to make up a funny image of Patrick Vieira as an Irishman but then I realised I did that last year. Anyway, if you’re Irish have a good day. If you’re not Irish watch out for the Irish wherever you are. They’re dangerous cunts.
Not much happening really. Having, most surprisingly, been the first person to use the term ‘Colegate’ I’m rather upset I didn’t patent it as ITV (Sporting life and Ananova) stole it, the bastards, as they report a commission is to be set up in the next few days to investigate the Chelsea/tapping up/Kenyon being a shifty bald cunt claims.
Robert Pires – who has hit out at his £35,000 fine wearing the wrong shirt – has been left out of the French squad for their upcoming games against Switzerland and Israel. He’s not happy but there are whispers that Philippe Senderos could be called up to his national squad for the first time so he can face Henry, Vieira and not Pires. Speaking of Vieira we all know the rumours of Real Madrid’s interest in José Reyes – reports suggest we’re willing to sell him for £10m – at the moment but it seems they’d be willing to try, yet again, to sign Patrick Vieira to shore up their midfield. President Florentino Perez said “With Vieira, you never know. Arsenal are out of the Champions League and are not going well in The Premiership.”
Peter Hill-Wood has poured scorn and boiling oil over suggestions that Arsene Wenger’s future at the club was in doubt. Fiddling with a hole in the elbow of his jumper he said “It is absolute nonsense to question Arsene’s future at Arsenal. He has been with us for eight years and we have never finished lower than second.” He also reiterated the fact that there’s money to spend, saying “The money is there but Arsene, thank goodness, is not someone who spends money just because the media, or whoever, says he needs to buy more players. He only buys players he thinks are going to improve our situation. We have sufficient funds to buy the players Arsene wants.”
And there you go. My breakfast of a pint of Guinness and a potato milkshake is ready. Happy St Patrick’s day to you all.
