BITTER SWEET SYCOPHANTS

I awoke to the sound of the cock crowing this morning. Yes that's right Harry's boys have made it to the last eight after 49 years. And fair play to them, but, let's not book that open top bus just yet. They successfully parked it last night against a Milan side of underachievers Robinho, Ibrahimovich, Flamini and an ageing Seedorf but as i say fair play they got the result.
The hysteria and bitterness reached a crescendo this morning with ludicrous comparisons being made between Sp*rs result and Arsenals's at Camp Nou. Granted Milan lead Serie A but I think its reasonable to say that Barcelona are a better team.
What was noticeable about the Sp*rs performance was the work rate and understanding of the task at hand; make progress by any means necessary.
Of course the press pundits and general football experts have always loved Sp*rs and they have taken the opportunity to laud 'appy 'Arry with both hands. 'Harry for England' 'Sp*rs are well equipped to beat Barcelona' 'They will win the ECL, as it's not always the best team that wins it' 'After Sp*rs performance they should be rated as London's top club' these are all quotes I've heard today and they are not from exuberant fans but from so called experts in the professional football media!
Those happy fans have actually spent more time gloating about Arsenal than enjoying their merited achievement, and that I'm afraid will always be their undoing; The inferiority complex they have about Arsenal.
For gods sake Sp*rs fans support your team and don't worry about ours. We can do that ourselves

HATE

Then Now Earlier today Captain Kirk sent me the following video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sG1f-v88-kU&sns=em To say it is both disturbing and upsetting is an understatement. We see the beautiful game as something of a mirror to society and try to look on the community of supporters as a positive force. A set of human beings with some values borne out of an understanding of what this great sport of ours can give us. However, it takes a certain amount of myopia from the Football Authorities to proclaim that all is well. The issues that were amplified over the weekend at Old Trafford cannot be trivialised when we see the full extent of hatred; in any form. The violence is shocking as we see people attacked on a basis that is a result of flawed thinking, and the powers that be proclaim all is well; all is not well. So when I look at those images, I have to ask myself this… http://youtu.be/6RVDQgVxprE

"IF WE BEHAVE LIKE THEM, THEN WHAT IS THE POINT IN WINNING? "- John Connor

"The future has not been written. There is no fate but what we make for ourselves. I wish I could believe that."-John Connor To overcome Skynet was not easy, it involved time, belief and an indomitable human spirit. To beat a machine equipped with superior weaponry and a ruthless access to resources to increase its arsenal took ingenuity and a "never say die" attitude. Abu Dhabi is the ground zero of Skynet and Manchester CXV are the Terminators. The thing about Skynet is that there are no qualms about what their aim is, there are no notions of fairness.  "Listen, and understand! Manchester CX are out there! They can't be bargained with. They can't be reasoned with. They doesn't feel pity, or remorse, or fear. And they absolutely will not stop... ever, until someone stops them flagrantly breaking rules"-Kyle Reese In a landscape where one team dominates it is up to a resistance to topple them, this is made hard when using resources that were ga...

LEAGUE OF ORDINARY GENTLEMEN

Sunderland V Sp*rs ended goalless meaning that Sp*rs currently sit third. It was a game that had 0-0 written all over it after about 30 minutes. The baton now passes to us in today’s fixture against Man City. A win gives us a two point advantage and a draw puts us back in third. One side that we need to be mindful of in the shake up for 3 rd & 4 th is Newcastle who have hung on all season and present a threat to ECL qualification. What the SAFC v THFC game showed is the poverty of this current Premier League; it was awful. A cursory comparison between teams in the Premier era makes grim reading for the current state of the game. The Man Utd of 99 would definitely beat the current side, The Newcastle of Keegan, The Chelsea of Mourinho, the Villa of Atkinson, the Blackburn of Dalgleish, The Liverpool of Fowler, McManaman, Owen etc would batter the Liverpool of 2012. Certainly the Invincibles would put the current Arsenal team to the sword. Even teams like Midd...
