First and foremost I'm gonna point out that my attempt to blog every Sunday in my new 'column', so to speak, failed at the first hurdle, BUT I did have a busy weekend. It'll pick up this week, I promise :)
I've just spent an hour going through TeeLine Fast, that wonderful book full of crazy-ass symbols and, frankly, it's done my head in. However, I've decided on a plan of action! As we're nearing the end of this stupidly expensive book, I've decided that once we reach that goal, I'm going to spend half an hour every night practising the various special outlines because those are probably the most important words to know, else they wouldn't be so special!
Last night I took Tom to St. Mary's stadium to watch his beloved Hammers lose to the mighty Saints, nobody beats us here, it's not going to start now. It was a club record attendance of 32,150, with some people claiming to see people sharing seats, so the official figure was probably wrong. Not a bad turn out for a mid-week game in the second division!
Anyway, overall I wasn't impressed with West Ham. They're supposed to be promotion candidates, yet they were more one dimensional than a sheet of A4 paper - hoof the ball up to Carew, hope he can hold the ball up or knock it on to Baldock who can run fast, but not much else. Saints, in comparison, were majestic; slick passing, fair tackles, fantastic running off the ball and precision accuracy. It's easy to see why we've opened up a five point gap at the top of the league. Not that I'm biassed or anything; West Ham did have about 4 shots, but they were crap. Nobody can beat Super Kelvin Davis. Nobody.
excellent material - I read all your recent law posts - libel and the HCJ stuff as well. This is a very useful blog and it is done with wit and parts of it are really funny. Well done. I look forward to reading many of the blogs and this is one of them.
