Over the top

Talk about over the top, he will have a hard enough job following the special one, and trying to get a methodical dour footballing outfit playing like a footballing version of the Harlem Globetrotters without taking on his shoulders the weight of the Jewish diaspora.

The press conference to announce Grant as the new manager of Chelsea was an absolute hoot, what a shambles. I almost managed to feel sorry for Kenyon when he was asked how long Grant's contract was for, as he sat there open mouthed, unable to respond until he was saved by bucks answer that the events of the week had been so quick that they hadn't had time to negotiate it. He is really in charge isn't he, of course he is.

I am getting more and more concerned about this injury of Hargreaves, tomorrow was the type of game we really bought him for. Fortunately with Chelsea probably being without Drogba, it is not as much of a blow as it might of been. I would like to see him play four or five consecutive games for us though, i hope his season is not going to be as stop start as it has been so far. He was our most important signing of the summer, Nani and Anderson being for the future. I am still not too sure why we bought Tevez too be honest.

GUTTED
Absolutely gutted, to get so close to scoring 489 to win in the last innings, one day it will happen for Lancy. Rightly or wrongly, Lancy have gained a reputation for being bottlers on the big occasion, but i don't think that can be levelled at them today, because that was a magnificent effort. If only Mark Chilton had won the toss on Wednesday,
if only.

I mean all of them, don't get me wrong i have got no time for that monster Mugabe, but with the British empire's treatment of the indigenous peoples of Africa when we ruled there, we are probably the last people to be lecturing them. And i am afraid it just looks like a cynical attempt to make brown look better than brown on the foreign affairs front, as if Brown hadn't sat in the same government that decided to back Blair in his decision to back the neocons come what may in Iraq. They really take people for idiots don't they if they think we won't see through this.
