Hockey Is Better Than Soccer? I was watching some hockey from the Olympics the other day (womens' of course) and I suddenly realised that I was watching a game that flowed far better than Premiership football. I was amazed. Hockey used to be the worst, with the whistle being blown every 10 seconds. I don't know what they've done but it certainly made me take notice. Why is this? Because of complete tossers like the referee at the Blackburn V United match yesterday. Continuous trivial stoppages and an 'I'm in charge' attitude. These knob heads are killing the game. Its a case of typical British Jobsworths ruining life for everyone. Weblog Sunday 29th August 2004 [Webmaster comments & rants about Manchester United or anything else]

They Must Have Heard Me! The power of the internet is amazing. As soon as I complain about United not buying Wayne Rooney, I turn on the radio this afternoon and hey presto...they've made an offer. Doesn't mean they'll buy him though. I reckon Rooney will make Everton sell him to United even if they offer less than Newcastle.

Richest Club - I Don't Think So Who says United are the richest club in the world. If they were, they would have bought Rooney by now. Simple. Weblog Wednesday 25th August 2004 [Webmaster comments & rants about Manchester United or anything else]

Why Are British People Stupid? Fancying a break from the laptop I thought, Oh, interesting programme. Its about folk who have moved to Spain, had a problem, and have now moved back. As it turns out, these were the reasons for these three families to move back to 'wonderful' Britain. 1) First couple - bought some land, accepted the promise of planning permission and to cut a long and inevitable story short, they never got to build their dream house, after £250,000 spent! Conclusion: Knob heads. 2) Second couple - Bought a wonderful looking Villa without having a survey done by a structural engineer. Place started cracking up, yet they spent £20,000 on a swimming pool etc etc and the 'wonderful' Spanish authorities......(you know, the ones who allow the torture of donkeys and bulls)..... let the developers 'take' land off these poor unfortunates. Conclusion: Knob heads (that goes for the Spanish as well). Wait for this third one, this is the best; 3) Third couple - Been to Spain many times on holiday and loved the way of life and had been involved in a few time-shares. (Warning!!) Now get this....they bought a property in a certain area and they said that they thought it was a bit quiet and too Spanish. I repeat....it was to Spanish. Why...well a lot of the shops closed down at funny times and it was'nt like back home. Well I mean, the programme showed them in a local shop saying that they couldn't buy any local meat/sausages etc and had to pay 4 times the price to get English food and newspapers from a town 18 miles away! My conclusion: Me thinks the TV station had a gap to fill and managed to convince a few couples that they were hard done by and would benefit by being advertised all over the UK.......as...... complete twats and knob heads..... and British! What a great country, I unforunately still live in! Where's that map of Latvia? Weblog Monday 23rd August 2004 [Webmaster comments & rants about Manchester United or anything else]

Devastating News I couldn't believe what I was hearing this afternoon...Ole Gunnar Solskjaer out for the season. Even worse is that his contract is up at the end of this season. That means that I don't think we'll see this great artisan again. Having said that, United's new manager may want to see how he fairs for one more season. If anyone can come back from this, Ole can. Ole hasn't deserved the injuries he has had. Maybe its because he has put 150% into each and every game he has played. Its a crying shame when you see some of the soft, lazy and incompetent twats that are playing presently. Every bad happening has a good side to it, its nature's way. Its no consolation to Ole but it will probably mean that I will be able to finish the book I have been writing for the last few years about the great man. Loads of stats and a bit of humour. Knees crossed , he may be back....he deserves it. Weblog Monday 9th August 2004 [Webmaster comments & rants about Manchester United or anything else]

Good Ol' Scholesey Great news. Paul Scholes has retired from playing for England. A bit like Beckham but permanently. The radio phone-ins are full of it and everyone hates United fans for not giving a stuff about England. Fantastic for the Reds. Bollocks to England. They don't deserve him or any United player. PS: I reckon Scholes has done this to take the heat away from Rio (Michael Jackson) Ferdinand...have you seen his hair!

Can Dad Stomach It? Dad has managed to put himself in hospital. According to eye witnesses it was like the scene from Alien, only it was coming out of his mouth. Apparently it was beaten off with a stick. Today, just before he went in for an endoscopy (they shove a garden hose with a camera on the end of it, down your throat!), I saw the Doctor's notes. Under the heading 'Benefits of the intended procedure', or something like that, it said..."To identify source & the bleeding". I'm sure the Doctor had been interrupted and not finished that sentence. It turned out to be a peptic ulcer (not helped by taking aspirin which encourages the bleeding). So its no more whiskey for him for a while. The staff were quite pleased with Dad as they couldn't get any anaesthetic into his arm (lack of veins due to lack of blood probably) so he had to swallow the tube without any. Not sure he was too pleased! All being well, he's on the mend now and can look forward to us ranting at the first match on Sky TV. PS: All this medical talk reminds me of the guy who was given a suppository to take for his constipation. Thinking it was to be taken orally, he told the Doctor rather irritatedly..."I can't swallow that, its far too big. Its useless, I might as well stick it up my arse for all the good it'll do!" By the way if you want to insert one this page will tell you how. Weblog Monday 2nd August 2004 [Webmaster comments & rants about Manchester United or anything else]

Webmaster Suffers PMT Yes, its true. I've got PMT. Pre Match Tension.With the start of the Premiership season only two weeks away, I'm feeling tense. Why? I can't see United winning anything this season. Constantly changing tactics, various team selections, players 'rested', surrounded by zombies at Old Trafford.
