The final Whistle

The Final Whistle (musings from the world of FML and some real life stuff as well!)

SO Christmas and New Year have come and gone again, it's the same every year! Well not for me this time round we headed off to an 8 bed cottage in St Ives Cornwall for Christmas and new year, 4 kids and 8 adults...fun and relaxing times. I couldn't help but logon occasionally when there was some signal just to get my fix; it's good for the soul I told the Mrs.!!

So to the end of season 2, the usual scramble for the premiership title and the various promotion pushes and playoff uproar, I myself took my boys to the brink of the playoffs only to be done up like a kipper in the last 2 games of my season with 2 draws against AI, let's just say I was not amused.

There was the usual banter in the lobby and Terry Tibbs was as vocal as ever, something about Eboue being a dirty player? I wasn't quite sure. There have been various departures from Lineker, most notably the departure of Ethans Gooners Glory, Jon has fled to the comfort of "ooh ahh cantona", have i thought about leaving for pastures new, well yes and no, i want to see how 1.1.1.111111.1 patch goes then theres a group of escapees planning to tunnel out apparently, we`ll probably end up in someone's centre circle in the middle of a game. But for now we`ll sit tight!!

Some amusing things I have come across over the last few weeks in the daily papers, just in case you missed them...a few of my favourites are below.

`Uefa show they have a sense of humour as the seating plan for the draw is revealed. Apparently, Manchester United officials have been seated next to the represents of...yes; you've guessed it...Real Madrid. Don't get Uefa to plan the seating for your wedding folks.`

`What on earth are Liverpool wearing??? Grey shirts and red shorts. It's hurting my eyes. "It looks like a training kit," remarks Graham Taylor.`



Some predictions in Real life for 2009:

Tottenham re-sign Defoe and sell him back to pompy in the summer before someone realises he attached to a piece of elastic that runs from south sea to seven sisters!

Real Madrid admits there 3m bid for Pennant was the result of a drunken staff party, where a drunken staff member admits to the prank. Hull then own up to the same!

West Ham chairman decide to appoint Kerry Katona to the board of the happy hammers as she`s the only one who can make a profit from ICELAND!

Hull are forced to sell Geovanni to pay for the Sunbed use at the KC Stadium of manager Phil Brown.

Finally Ricardo Fuller has been lined up as Ricky Hatton's next opponent!





SO to 2009 in Lineker,

There will be the usual moans im predicting after the 1.1..11111 patch has been launched and im guessing not everyone will be happy with the Tax situation, shame about the stadiums but trust me I've seen it there more hassle than there worth at the moment. There will be banter and straight talking in the lobby as usual, Shev will continue to wheel and deal better than a Lewisham car dealer and Me? Nothing different for me, the same edgy stuff as usual i would reckon!



Good luck to all for 2009 and i`ll see you all in the Premiership (damn I didn't make it!...oh and up the daggers (IRL!)
