Self pity is an unattractive quality in a person I have to concede.
Except when I am the subject of course.
For a girl who rarely gets sick, having a heavy cold has proved something of a challenge.
And as if that wasn't bad enough in itself, The Foxes lost at home today 1 -2 (it would have been 0
2 had it not been for a 90 minute goal by Berner).

As you will have gathered I have been somewhat distracted this week.
Blocked sinus' and a red nose are neither nice to live with nor pretty.
But hey - Foxes are fighters so here I am bouncing back and catching up on football news.
Which included a report of our match against QPR which we won 1 2 at Loftus Road.

Popular "pit-bull" Edgar Davids might get back on football scene and as no less
than a Leicester City member. Dutchman's final decision is expected these days and
everyone in Leicester are unanimous about getting this excellent player and winner of many trophies
on their side.

Oh my!
What a day.
My emotions are in shreds.
Work did not present anything out of the ordinary.
My lover and I continue to live together in hippy paradise.
So why the trauma?
Well it started at about 7.50am when I heard on the radio that Gareth Southgate had been sacked
last night.

"I wonder if that's an omen", I said to my lover as we passed a dead fox on our way up the Fosse
Way to the Walker's Stadium this morning.
It was only said in jest. I was feeling pretty optimistic as we looked forward to reaching
Leicester and sitting down to a cooked breakfast and mug of hot tea.

Oh dear Fergie.
You do have a propensity to lack a bit of grace sometimes - great as you may be.
I have to say trying to personalise things the way he does just makes him look a bit - well
undignified.
Anyway, in my experience, the best way to deal with such petulance is to ignore it.

I've had a lovely weekend.
I had Friday afternoon off, spent taking a leisurely walk along the canal bank with my lover.
Followed by a refreshing beer in The Golden Fleece, passing time with some local 'characters'.
I caught up with a few emails and other bits of paperwork yesterday morning so I feel more on top
of things.

It's Friday evening.

It's time to sit back, chill and have a giggle.

GB's away tonight.
This Weekend, the results of her work over the last few months will be realised and enjoyed by
(hopefully) many. In the next few days, we're (GB and I) supposed to be playing John Prine songs
here to a fairly pissed audience.
Last night saw us up the pub watching (dare I say it) Sky.

Steve Harper's first-half heroics during last night's 1-0 victory over Leicester City, showed just
exactly why he's Newcastle United's No.1 goalkeeper this season. Steve Harper - fantastic save from
header after 21 minutes Harper twice stopped The Foxes last night with great saves as they looked
to be getting on top of Newcastle, and at half [.

Black and white, sitting on top, doing alright! That's Newcastle United, after another win in front
of the watching Sky cameras puts us in the driving seat after five games. Leicester City came to
town and although The Foxes showed wily endeavour in the first half, it would be hard to argue that
the result [.

A disappointing outcome to a really good game of football.
The game could have gone either way and both teams played with tenacity and commitment.
The Foxes played the best I have seen since I began supporting them almost 2 and a half years
ago.
They had shape and discipline.

There's a terrific article out today by Stuart Raynor in the Journal, where he sums up our current
players still left, and the position they are in and it's a must read for Newcastle fans before
tonight's game against the Foxes, and tomorrow's end of the transfer season. Colin and Chris -
looks like the [.

Fancy the ManUre getting duffed up by Burnley!
In other news, Tottenham look as if they are about to start a rampage of the Premiership. Watch
with interest I would say.
Oh and Burnley beat Manchester United 1 - 0 last night.
Newcastle seem to be doing quite well despite all their troubles.

So FSC showed the Freedom-Sky Blue game after all, if a couple of days late. I'm just happy some of
the other local sports Foxes, like Fox Sports Chocolate City* and Fox Sports Fuhgeddaboutit.
Very well-played game, which makes a grand total of one for the Skys all year. And right on
schedule comes the phrase that makes me swear never to cheer for an underdog ever again.

Coca Cola Championship season is speeding up and we bring you a brief prediction for each club
this season. Many things have changed in the squads, especially on benches. It seems that it will
be tougher than ever and many so-called favourites might just prove otherwise...
LEICESTER CITY
When a pretty big club like Leicester city suffers such a failure like a drop to the Third
league and then makes it to an express return to Championship, then other clubs should beware of
their self-esteem and courage.

I have got so much to tell you.

When I walked into my office today, I found a small newspaper cutting protected by sellotape
perched between the keys on my keyboard.
It was entitled "Foxes In Hunt For Super Kev".
Apparently we are after Kevin Phillips.
I have concluded that the informative gift must have been left by 1 of 2 people.

With a 3-2 win at Kansas City last night, the Des Moines Menace claimed 1st place for themselves
in the Heartland Conference. The game-winner was scored by Ben Taylor (Drury) on
an assist from Garrett Webb. Taylor is now the leading the scorer for the Menace with 13
points.
The win ensured that the Menace would take sole possession of first regardless of the result
here in Springfield, where the Demize were hosting the Colorado Real Foxes, the other potential
contender.

At the end of a season where we fielded no less than five goalkeepers (not all together of
course!), it's reassuring to hear that we have some new, hungry, blood on the way.
Slightly unsettling, however, is the array of headlines in different publications about the
move.
"Pearson nets Weale".
