Saw the picture in the mercury on page 38 of those dirty Chelski players pulling Utakas shirt and tackling from behind.
Looked up the web to see if any yellows handed out to Chelski and suprise suprise NONE. Just typical, the ref must have been watching the SPL and probably booked Utaka swearing and asking for a free.
Not much point worrying about it as spurs are in the 4. Bottom 4 that is. Bloody Hell its gonna be another long season.

Have just read Chelski’s Russian Mafia owner (My-Mum’s-a-Bitch) has stated he will “break the bank” the buy The ugliest man in football - Ronaldinho. That should cost him about $150M…totally obscene!!! A fool and his money are soon parted.

Well dont know about a lot of you, but im sick of hearing about Taroona, Metro and academy’s on the blog so lets talk EPL.
Clutch, im guessing your a Spurs fan, so am I. What do you make about the hoo haa over Martin Jol possibly being replaced? I think its disgusting especially after their excellent performances of the last two years.
Im confident (provided they keep Berbatov) that they will get back up to top 6 by season end although they still need a season or two to challenge for the top 4 as Liverpool are improving all the time and Arsenal are always strong.
Cant see any of the other teams outside top 4 being consistent enough to get in there other than possibly Everton, Man City and Blackburn but i dont think their squads are strong enough to maintain it.
Think most teams would struggle a little without a couple players of the calibre of Aaron Lennon and Ledley King. I thought Spurs had the better of the game vs ManU and if not for some typically buyest Old Trafford officiation would have had at least equalised and been playing against 10 men (Wes Brown)
Gareth Bale looks like will be a hell of a player on the left side, pity for England he is Welsh.
Good to see Mido doing well at Middlesboro, very good player, although very temperamental.
Couldnt see Ronaldinho playing in the EPL. Spain suits him too much.
Could be a case of Ronald asking Roman to “show me the money” (aka Jerry Mcguire) and seeing how many zero’s Roman will add on the end.
Anyone know what’s happening with Harry Kewell? If he is fit, will Benitez give him a game? Can see the Pool pushing Man U/Chelsea this year.

Yeah Juice Im a Spurs sucker.
I think JOL from what Ive seen briefly on Austar is a down to earth hard man who doesnt take shit. I dont know much about his playing days but I was glad when he took over from that french bloke because he made spurs look worse than the old boring boring Gunners pre Wenger(waiting for the dummy spit).
The back door Management stuff aint gonna help the side - a couple of result and they go running after another manager( a certain SPL club that might spring to mind would have gone thru a couple in the last 2 years based on these results). Keep the big Bulgarian is a priority - give him anything he wants $$$ - buying Bent was strange - selling carrick did what ? I think we just need a better midfielder or 2 to crack the big time. A good cup run will help and with 34 games to go who knows.
Rohni - no way
Benitez - I dont think hes keen on Harry - just an opinion
