I bet you one billion dollars* of cold, hard meat that you can't work out who Stadler and Waldorf
from 'The Muppets' (how ironic) are impersonating in this picture... There's an extra prize if you
can spot the little tyke that's hiding in the the picture - much like he seems to have been hiding
in the past few days.
At the end of my last article of last season I said "I'm signing off for the summer but I'll be
back in August. Enjoy the break and see you at Scunthorpe". At least one misguided, and of course

Still lingering like a nuisance this Sunday, the "day after". This feeling I have today that
something just isn't right with the team. Heads down, lack of inspiration through and through. Even

saw, bar the last few minutes.
- That handball was a penalty. Not complaining, but in some ways this game reminded me of
Arsenal's games against CSKA Moscow last season: one side dominated completely, had a lot of shots
and yet were unable to score (although Arsenal were even more unlucky).
While I do have Norwegian roots, I am not talking a Scandinavian Viking. Here in the U.S. there is
a myriad of sports to choose from. But American football is king as far as attendance, TV coverage
and viewership. It seems to be the sport that U.S. fans show the most passion for. Here in [...]
There's something about watching Fulham the last 6 games or so that seems as if they haven't a clue
around the goal. We didn't have this problem early on in the year. We seemed to have purpose and
the players were creating chances left and right. But with the new plan to tighten up the [...]
