Close season blues

We are all waiting for that news bulletin telling us our team has signed some football genius that will bring great glory next season. Who are those up for grabs? Well some names are clear but very few of interest to my club. Clearer is those who are to leave. We need at great striker, not good great. The other big three in England have a least one £20m striker of world class renown. We have good but not brilliant. We have never successfully replaced Owen or Fowler when they were at their best. Where is the next Ian Rush?

That's the way it goes

No sixth European glory. Ironic that Liverpool bossed the first half and conceded an unlucky goal, drew the second half and ultimately could be said to have deserved to win. But the scoreline matters above all other measures.
It is now that some people say it is a blessing because now changes will be made to improve the side that maybe wouldn't otherwise. But blessing? No. It is a shame and unlucky but we already know that just because you can win the Champions League it does not make you favourites for the Premiership.
We must wait a couple of months now before football truly returns, argh!!!

This one is not a dog

Jose's dog tales are hilarious! Will it persuade him to leave Blighty? Who knows but boy did I laugh. We'd miss him for his interviews and comic value but someone would replace him if...

Three three

So third year, third place...three is the magic number? So many days before we get back to football.

Oh to be in Athens on the 23rd

I very doubt I will be there as work demands but spiritually I will be with the team. Hoping and cheering but expectations low. Could God get a winner? It is possible and very fairy tale but realistically unlikely he will play unless there is extra time and penalties. Thank you Robbie.
