Just before the EPL starts again in August billions of overpaid, over-watered journalists and “experts” pour out of the pubs for long enough to download their “predictions” for the coming season. Being blessed with a brain that understands Entanglement (get yourself an A level in physics if you don’t know that reference – but no…
I have to admit that I rarely listen to Talk Sport – mostly during the Domplepom thing event which involves hitting a little ball over a net for two weeks in parts of London I don’t willingly go to. During this period Radio 5 Live is off the air, replaced by upper class twits rambling…
Thank goodness the Euro Thing is over, and no Arsenal player got hurt. A miracle and undoubtedly a sign from the Almighty of great things to come this year. But just as we all thought it is time to relax for a few weeks, while watching Manchester Bankrupt try to put a brave face on…
1. The Murdoch Corporation “What’s the big news today boys?” “Peter Crouch is actually dead, has rigor mortis and is wheeled about on a trolly” “No done that” “Berbatov lives on the moon with Elvis Presley’s uncle” “No done that” “Arsenal need to sell two players a year to pay the mortgage” “Nice one –…
Or put it another way – given the choice would you believe anything that comes out of an organisation run by Mr Berlusconi? The News of the Dickheads piece about Arsenal being a club that has to sell two top players a year to pay the rent caused outrage among Arsenal fans, and there was…
I’m not bursting with desire to defend Ade, but I do think that some of the stuff being posted about him at the moment is a bit over the top. Here’s a little bit of the other side of the coin. To start, 90% of what passes for the transfer market is now pure manipulation…
That is the profit Arsenal look set to make from selling Adebayor to Barca in the next week or three. When Ade came from Monaco he was unknown, and no one thought much of him. In fact I remember comments about Wenger buying unknowns all the time and why don’t we compete with the likes…
The fact that Amaury Bischoff had the squad number 38 at Werder Bremen, and the fact that the highest number in the squad last year was 40, and there was no number 39, tells us something. He’s a defensive midfielder and some specualte that he is of the Flamini model. But he hasn’t played much…
On Sunday (that’s the quaintly numbered 06/07/08) there is a vote of no confidence in the Barca president. Now if you were Barca president and you had not won any trophies and you knew that everyone was going to have a chance to vote on your presidency what would you do? Possibly you would talk…
When I say “won”, what I mean of course is “survived”. Euro Whatnot Thing has been and gone and none of our team has been injured. We were helped by the fact that some countries got knocked out early, some of our players were injured anyway and so didn’t get there, and our two superstars,…
