november 18th
Well, it looks as if our players got through last night’s friendlies unscathed.
Ashley Cole played around 80 minutes for a very poor England as they went down 1-0 to Spain. Some of the Spanish fans though were an absolute disgrace every time a black player got the ball. From the first whistle right to the end they showed everyone what clueless idiots they are by making ‘monkey noises’ when Cole or Shaun Wright-Phillips had possession. There can’t be any excuses for such behaviour. Nothing cultural or idiomatic excuses it.
Wayne Rooney showed his true colours by charging around like an angry bull, then when he got substituted to save him being sent off his took off his black armband (for Emlyn Hughes) and threw it to the ground as he was walking off. Calling him a gormless cunt would be doing an injustice to gormless cunts. To borrow a phrase, he’s like school in the summertime. No class. (Ta Jawsh).
Thierry Henry and Patrick Vieira played 90 minutes as France drew 0-0 with Poland.
Arsenal and Republic of Ireland Under 21 goalkeeper Graham Stack has been charged with rape. He’ll appear in court on November 23rd.
Not much else happening. Thankfully I have to get up early today because not only is there drilling outside this morning the people next door seem to think 8am is the time to put up shelves. Jebus. Later.
