october 7th
Hurrah! Friday, day of mellow fruits and lobster pots. Or something. Certainly a day for a few post-work cold ones.
Not much going on as normal. Yesterday the word was that Sol was going to miss out for England, today it seems he’s going to start and wonky-lips is out. I fully expect Sol to pick up another injury that will keep him out for three months as England crash 3-0 to an Alex Manninger hat-trick. Can anyone explain to me why Peter Crouch is being touted as the next big thing? He hasn’t scored a goal all season yet the press and pundits are drooling. I don’t really care but still…
And speaking of keepers Jens Lehmann says he wants a new deal at Arsenal and will begin talks in the winter. The Mirror says he has ‘demanded’ talks and will ‘quit’ if he doesn’t get a new deal. Have a read of his quotes in the article though and it’s not as exciting as all that.
And that’s all there is to tell you aboot the Arsenal. I have had the RNG out, that’s Random Number Generator for the uninitiated, and the winner of the Wunderground t-shirt from harderthansatan.com is Joss Croft who correctly advised that the real underground stop was ‘Cockfosters’. I’ll be in touch with you to get address and size details. Thanks to everyone who told me about a stop called ‘Mudchute’ on the Docklands Light Railway line. Shame you can’t get up the Arsenal from there.
Right, last night’s curried noodles will do for lunch today. Have a good Friday, Arsechums.
