Less than 90 mins to.....

Singapore Grand Prix Race!!!!!!!!!

As i sit here watching the clock, as time goes by, for THE race i have been waiting for ever since it was announced, my mind inevitably drift to the soccer world. A mixed bag of results yesterday. Some of the big guns went unscathed. One of them experienced an upset. No, i am not going to diss Arsenal. The game throws curve balls and as always luck can have its way.

Just got to mention how soccer pundits can swing opinions or what they say over a course of 90 mins. Before the game they were raving bout how good the youngsters were during the carling cup. They went on on how they say Arsenal will win by 2 and 3goals. 90 minutes past....and how the tune changed. They began to criticise the lack of power to kill off thems, lacking the killer instinct, overplaying. Yes there is some truth but sure didnt hear of them pre match. Arsenal just did not have the luck on the day. That ball could have landed anywhere but his thigh and Vela would have tapped it in and everyone knows of thier ability to get the goals late.

It was also interesting to see Daniel Cousins moving from Champions League regulars Rangers to Hull City. Its not as if he wasnt getting games at Ibrox.

Dear oh dear oh newcastle. I have a friend who is a newcastle supporter. It must be torture for him. They cant get any points if they tried to buy one at the present moment. Another defeat at home, this time to blackburn. Saw the highlights, both headed goals from blackburn. Poor marking the main reason really.

Joe Kinnear has been installed as the new boss there at St James Park. Remember him? My earliest memory wof him was a short, chubby guy who was in charge of the Crazy Gang of now non-existent Wimbledon. Fancy him coming back. Watch all the soccer shows and his name sure wasnt on the cards. Surprise installment indeed considering Dennis Wise is a former Wimbledon player. it seems that Wise is controlling the club, master of puppets-esque. Kinnear was quoted saying that he was surprised people turned down the job. Begs to wonder, has he been reading the papers recently bout Newcastle's turmoil.

Other things that happened on Saturday....
Man Utd required a non-penalty to break Bolton down in thier 2-0 win. Rooney scored a peach by the way.
Liverpool won the Merseyside derby 2-0 over a out of form Everton side. Gerrard was amazingly disciplined defensively.
Zola made it 6 out of 6 for his infant time as West Ham Manager. They won 2-1 away to Fulham.
Aston Villa into the top four as promising looking Villa beats Sunderland 2-1 at Villa Park.

70 mins to go now.....
