Well, Monday morning in the U.S anyway. We've got readers from all over the world, so my
apologies for sounding so Ameri-centric. Still, I haven't had enough coffee, so to me, it
certainly feels like Monday morning. Moving on. Press coverage of yesterday's win over PAOK here
and here. Djebbour gets a nice mention of his goal in [.
952 matches called off and 700 games postponed. So, just your average Non League week in January.
Chances are if you were off to a lower league football game this week, it would have been called
off, yet chances also are unless you were at Histon v Swansea, you won't have heard the referee
explain the reasons why.
Congratulations to Mohamed Aboutrika, who won the 2008 BBC African Footballer of the Year award
yesterday.
This, from the BBC:
The midfield star won by an overwhelming majority - taking more than half of the total ballot. More
than 155,000 people cast their votes for the BBC award - the only one of its kind to be decided by
football fans around the world.
Big name signing for Blue Square South outfit Cruelly jumping out of the Beeb's football page to
fans of lowly Eastleigh will be the headline: "Spitfires bring in Carew on loan."
Unfortunately for the non-leaguers, the headline refers to Barnet bit-part player Ashley, rather
than Aston Villa poacher John.
