    They even wear Arsenal colours too! :(

    Agree that he's better than a relegation-threatened League One team but the Championship's getting a bit messy with all these clubs trying to buy their way up, in addition to newly relegated sides trying to do the same. Everyone's in a hurry these days, no patience for building things from the ground up.

    Arsenal's squad now contains Holding, Gibbs, Walcott, Campbell and Gabriel

    Is Wenger's policy now to sign West Indian Test cricketers?

    Yes, of course. My apologies. Six sixes, I remember watching - in B&W, of course.

    No need to apologise. I remember it as well. A great sporting memory.

    If they have a player called Willy we could be treated to a football version of that great cricket commentary of " the bowler's Holding the batsman's Willy"

    The Spammers are rumoured to be readying a bid of £20m for Swansea's Andre Ayew. Normal service is being resumed. If they didn't already have Andy Carroll, they'd be waving £30m and £150k p.w. at whoever did. What's it they say about a fool and his money?

    Love that track and Temptation from that early-ish era.

    It's been an attritional week for friends. We buried a mate's wife Friday and another mate who was at the funeral (employee of Crystal Palace FC) had a heart attack and died on Saturday morning, hence some Serious Drinking (Love on the Terraces) I don't recommend absinthe (The Damned) unless you don't like your brain very much but it is one of those drinks from my youth - snakebite and black with Pernod being another that produces a similar result - oblivion.

    The thing that has been missing is not a rule in the rulebook, but the thing that connects the hips with the head in the officials.

    Indeed. It's that extra something that causes the refs to apply the laws (1) at all and (2) consistently to all teams including the "Sky favourites". Same goes for the FA / Premier League.

    If memory serves btw, it was a county game against Glamorgan, not an international.
