September 30th
Do you remember, the very last day of September? In a poll carried out by Gallup 87% of our readers said Creme Eggs should be available all year round. Enough to bring down a government? I’m sure they’re al quaking in their Timberlands right now.
Ahead of Sunday’s game it looks as if we’re going to be without Dennis Bergkamp and Gilberto so that will probably mean Flamini staying in midfield with Cesc, who talks about Paddy V again, while Robin van Persie could earn a recall up front with Freddie switching back onto the wing.
Young winger Ryan Smith is set to join Leicester on loan until the end of December. He’s very highly thought of within the club but he definitely needs games. He’s always looked a bit lightweight to me so a couple of months of Championship football should toughen him up a bit.
Not much more happening really. There’ll be the usual Friday press conference today where the boss will say some stuff and answer some questions and some pictures will be taken, perhaps. I can barely wait.
It is Friday though and that means the working week is over. And some cold ones this evening. Oh yes.
