We Hit the Beach Fighting...

No rest for me, no sir!

Is it some law of nature that the start of every new year be the most hectic period of the year?

Sure seems so to me. I need a break.

I am going to clear some days' off-in-lieu next month and no one is going to stop me.

And the soccer news does not look good at all!

Was watching the replay of the FA Cup Bolton Bastards vs Arsenal. It wasnt the fact that we lost one nil to a last minute headed goal that worries me.(And it should worry me, even though I'm resigned to the fact that Arsenal always concedes goals at the 85th minute to long balls all the bloody time). It was the way the Gunners kept losing the aerial battles for those long balls- whenever a long pass came in, a Bolton head would get there first before an Arsenal head did, even though both players jumped at the same time. And it kept on happening for the whole of the 90 mintues.

I don't know how Arsenal can show ambition without people like Viera to stand tall and keep the air threats out.

Oh well.

Here's to the Champions League then. We're going to beat Real Madrid, then thrash AC Milan, and finally win Barcelona in the finals.
