Amazing, the big three teams in the league all went out of the FA Cup today. Amazing. Incredible. Chelsea, the self-proclaimed ‘invincibles’ managed to lose at home to Bradford City? Who??? Bradford City. All those scuzzy northerner fans who made the long trek from Yorkshire, fully expecting to lose, and not really bothered as they’ve been saving for 9 months for beer moooneh. So they can each drink 16 pints of ‘soothern fookin pish’ to anaesthatise them from any loss. I hope at least a few were sober enough to appreciate how fantastic their team’s win was today.

Then Manchester City, the second best team in… well, possibly the country, possible in Manchester, but second best anyway, lost, again at home, to Middlesborogh. From so far up north it makes Bradford look relatively southerly. And Boro took the win back with them, leaving City ready to start yet another season’s lost opportunities dispite spending more on players and wages than any team in footballing history.

And, of course, the tragedy. Spurs, the third biggest club in the world, if you ignore all other bigger ones except 2, managed to again snatch defeat from the jaws of… well, the jaws of a draw, if not exactly victory against another shitty team. Bit of a bummer but reallly, I’d rather a loss than another sodding replay. We’re hanging onto everything barely, and with a lot of good fortune, we can bow out of this one, I feel. Annoying though it is to lose to Leicester. Even if it makes Gary Linneker happy.

More importantly, they’re talking of increasing the maximum speed limit on motorways from 70 to 80 mph. And there’s uproar, mainly from an organisation (of bike-riding tree-huggers, global warming defenders and hunt sabateurs) called ‘BRAKE’. Though others too have questioned this proposed increase. In fact I’m opposed to it too.

It should be 100.

80 is barely 4th gear. And what they should be doing is leaving speeding motorists alone, they’re generally the ones who know what we’re doing… ooops, what THEY are doing, and prosecute the ditherers. The imbeciles who hog the fast lane moving at 15mph below the limit. And once prosecuted they should have their licenses removed, and their legs, so they can’t drive again. Or just shoot them by the roadside and avoid all that costly legal bollocks.

80mph is 128 km/hour. Although some people (no names) see 80 and read it as ‘109’. Because if you drive faster than that you get a suspension but up to that just a few points and a fine.

Keep the roads safe: blow up a slow motorist today.

Happy Saturday
