So, one point from a game where it won't really do much to help us. In reality though, we could
have come away with all three points had we managed to score one more of our chances, or had Saja
not made a terrible mistake that the goalkeeper on my own amateur team would likely avoid.
Well, AEKBaltimore will watch the match on TV soon, since I believe he recorded it, and I'm not
sure if AEKMAN74 watched as well.

Lambert makes Patrick Viera and Roy Keane look like choir boys compared to her
Got this
video above from a buddy in my inbox this morning, "BYU # 21 is a babe."
But that really isn't what we should be focused on at all. It's the crazy, violent play of
Elizabeth Lambert that may catch your eye.

Liverpool goalkeeper Pepe Reina has said that he does not believe an early European exit for the
club would be a complete disaster.
Reina knows that his side must win their two remaining games and hope already-qualified Lyon can do
them a favour against Italian side Fiorentina, but maintains that the Reds' rich European history
makes up for this season's woes.

Xabi Alonso will never regret joining Liverpool in 2004, despite having the option to join his
current club Real Madrid.
The Spanish international was coveted by the La Liga giants prior to leaving Real Sociedad, but
chose to join the Premier League side instead.
The midfielder has great memories of his time at Anfield, and admits the fans will always hold a
special place in his heart.

Swine flu fever has overtaken Heart of Clackammanshire this week but new manager Gary Burns
isn't going to let that get in the way of the club's best winning run in years, in this week's
episode of "Shit Shot Mungo", which also lays bare the truth of Mungo McCrackas Lemsip addiction.
This week's Mungo is brought to you by Ted "The Neck" Carter (who, if you were
wondering how he got his nickname, fell through a roof and broke his neck a little over three years
ago, in case you were wondering he's okay now, but he's not allowed to go on rollercoasters any
more), and is available in a higher resolution here.

Following his goal scoring debut for new side Persisam, Thai international Pipat Tonkanya will be
back in action this afternoon as his side take on Persela Lamongan at the Surajaya Stadium in East
Java.
Persela are a strong team at home and are currently unbeaten in the ISL but after Pipat and company
deflated Persijap's goal free defence at the weekend, the Borneo Eagles will go into the game full
of optimism.

Is it only me or is the whole world against us?
Firstly, we have a list of injured players longer than my telephone bill. Then, Rafa has to be
contented with playing so-so players because of some friggin owners would not cough up the funds
needed for us to be real contenders for the PL. Then we have a game in which we dominate play for
such a long period and the bar stops the ball and the only time Pepe touches the ball is to collect
it from his net.

Before delving into a couple odds-and-ends, let me first issue a major apology. If anyone out there
in Inter-nets Land actually takes my Premier League picks to heart and bets them, well, last
weekend I'm massively sorry. Going 2-and-8 is frankly, unacceptable. If this were a reality
television program, I'd have been asked to take my laptop and go.

This week's episode of "Shit Shot Mungo" features the aftermath of Heart of Clackmannanshire's
outstanding 3-0 win last week. Glen Roeder is sacked as the Director of Football and, after a viral
outbreak at the club, the club's new plutocratic owner brings in a plague doctor in to help out.
Drawn by the fair hand of Ted "The Neck" Carter, and available in a higher

Last season he played his part at the heart of an exciting Persitara side. But now Essiah Pello

I don't understand a word of it either. What I do know is that whilst 'The Emperor' looked sharp
tonight in a hold-up role. However he had plenty of chances to place his name on the scoresheet
that went wanting.

Javier Mascherano has warned Liverpool that Sunday's victory over Manchester United will count for
nothing if it is not the start of a winning run.
Fernando Torres and David Ngog scored the goals to earn a 2-0 success at a deafening Anfield, but
Mascherano played an equally influential role.

How many times have you heard a sports journo or commentator use the phrase "That kid's got
heart!" It is one of those cliches that stands the test of time, much like the classic "he gives
one hundred and ten percent every play," and the ever so popular "he never takes a play off. He is
always competing!

Following their recent take-over by a Sudanese billionaire food additive magnate, Heart of
Clackmanannshire is buzzing. However, Faisal Wally Camel has something of a maverick streak and, in
this week's "Shit Shot Mungo", he decides that the "man in the street" could do better job than any
of these so-called football "managers" and appoints, well, the first person that he comes up in the
street.

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.

You see that great big ditch down there? The one big enough to swallow St. James's Park? That's
how far my heart sank when I heard the news that Chris Hughton was offered the manager's job on a
permanent basis.
Firstly, this is a huge backwards step and reeks of the lack of ambition wafting out from the
Gallowgate.

With the Ballon d'Or nominations finally releasing this weekend, the headlines have mostly been
devoted to the fact that world champions Italy have no representation whatsoever. But why blame the
press for paying excessive attention to an irrelevant detail? After all, the award itself is
destined to be heading Lionel Messi's way, which means very little is there to be talked about in
terms of debating the winner, right?

God! What next? What a bizarre goal to concede against Sunderland which cost us the game at the
so-called 'Stadium of Light'.Rafael Benitez was without Gerrard and Torres so he shuffled his team
around selecting young Jay Spearing and that man Lucas in midfield, five at the back with Agger
returning and Babel and Kuyt upfront.

Replace Seedorf with Van Persie's face and Adebayor definitely connects
Alright,
this is somewhat of a weak Funny Feeling Friday - because this player is a proven fantasy commodity

Adebayor is only owned by 6% of fantasy managers. Six percent.

For those of you out there wondering what exactly "dookie rope" is or isn't, please allow me to
clarify. This is not a dookie rope, it is just a common chain painted gold. This on the other hand
is a classic dookie rope chain. Note the tell-tale twisted flow of the rope; so gangsta.

Liverpool youngster Jay Spearing is too young to remember the last time the Kop tasted league title
success and he admits Manchester United's dominance of the Premier League has been a painful
experience to bear for the Merseyside local.
The Wirral born midfielder also claims this season is the most important of his career, suggesting
he has to show Rafa Benitez what he is capable of.

This is something I've often kind of wondered about, so I figured it would make a decent poll.
And, since there isn't much going on in the way of actual Arsenal news and probably won't be until
the players report back at the end of the week, it at least gives us something to discuss.
The basic question is, which do you care about more, your club or your country?

TORONTO - Just a month ago, Pistolas FC 2010 announced they would turn in their 'Duchess' jerseys
at the end of 2009, and replace it with the 2009/10 Liverpool FC Phantom jerseys; the gorgeous gold
foil numbering on the new, black jersey (in keeping with Pistolas FC colours).
Next thing you know, the website got overhauled, losing the orange and black feel, for a black and
gold look.
