A Little to the Left ...... Hold ...... PERFECT!!!
Tuesday afternoon is never ending…. Macca had it right, at least as far as today is concerned. Too many projects and too many people wanting to meet. It is rain or shine for your favorite blogger, but I’m sure I’ll find a beer somewhere soon.
The Arsenal have a mid-week Champions League match tomorrow at the Grove against CSKA Moscow. I’m sure you’re thinking, “Didn’t the Arsenal just play those guys?” You are correct fine person, but this is the home leg of the group stage and the Gunners need a win to make sure they not only go through to the knock-out stages, but can go through on top of the table. Arsenal are currently in the second slot of Group G on 6 points, just behind the Russians who have 7 points. Going through top of the group can mean you could get a bit easier of an opponent in the next round. Of course, that doesn’t always happen as this competition is made up of some of the best clubs in Europe.
Anyway, on to the match. Wenger feels that the players are a bit too cocky right now after their performance in the CL last season. This lackadaisical attitude lost them some points on the recent trip to Moscow. The players really didn’t seem too interested in playing until they were a goal down, and by then it was too late as CSKA locked up the 18-yard box. AW is urging the Gunners to go out and fight for the win. Lets hope they can pull through.
Plymouth Argyle, at the time of this posting, are at half time against Ipswich and are level at 1-1. Ipswich went up in the first minute, but Wotton brought the Argyle level in the 22nd minute. You, dear reader, will have to follow the rest of the match yourselves (I’m sure you are logging on to bbc.com as we speak) as I see an avalanche of work coming my way and I’ll be out of town for the rest of the week.
I have decided recently my friends that I have a new dream job. The top photographer at Playboy position will have to wait as I yen to be the next England manager. I don’t really have much experience, but I doubt I could have been much worse than Sven over the last few years. The best part of the job is that even when I got fired (and we all know it would happen) I'd still get to collect millions of £’s while I scoured the land for a new job. The Sun is now reporting that the Svenenator is whispering
sweet nothings in the ear of Freddy Shepherd while current gaffer Glenn Roeder is steering the Toon towards the relegation zone. Freddy and Sven may be chumming it up, but the Toon Army supporters would not be too happy with the deal. About the only thing that could make the frothing Geordies happy right now is free beer and Alan Shearer at the helm, neither of which is likely to happen.
And finally, for those Hammer supporters who are fans of Pardew, who seemed to be saved from a sacking with a win over Blackburn over the weekend, the gaffer may still be on his way as club Chairman Terry Brown is reported to be in final negotiations with Iranian businessman Kia Joorabchian over sale of the club. It is thought that the new owner will be looking to make some changes, especially since his potential new investment is hovering in the relegation zone. Maybe Sven will weasel his way in there. You never know. Old Sven seems to have a lot of irons in the fire!
Well friends, it is Halloween so I hope you all get loads of candy, or like me, hope your daughter gets loads of candy that you can pilfer. Enjoy the evening and I’ll try post again on Friday with the results of the Arsenal match.
Adios.
