Sepp has resigned. The ancient Swiss tosser has fallen on his sword, despite the ‘resounding success’ of being voted to continue as president of FIFA just last Friday. Which itself was a meaningless endorsement of a flawed and failed man by the very cronies responsible for the current shambles in World Football. No-one should hold – Read More-
We need to talk about God. He’s becoming a bit of a problem. The Church of England is in a crisis. Again. This time its falling numbers. While you can’t get a season ticket for the Emirates without a 20 year wait, you can join any church in the land today, at no charge. Because – Read More-
Ok, the football season ends; same difference. The penultimate game of the entire season, Arsenal had a lucky win over Villa at Wembley to retain the FA Cup and to celebrate it they caused an almighty traffic jam round the whole of Islington, parts of Haringey and half of Hoxton. Or, ‘an open-top-bus-parade’ as they – Read More-
… come back another day. Preferably one when I’m not going to play tennis. London is wet this morning. Very wet. Ahhhh, that’s good for the lawn, the flowers, the water supply. But its pretty much shit for anything else. Certainly won’t be much good for the cricket, unless it happens to be dry up – Read More-
So this afternoon Arsenal take on Aston Villa at Wembley. The FA Cup Final. Biggest game of the… month. Used to be the biggest game of the year, then it got devalued by crass commercialisation of other factors in the game and now no-one cares. Unless they’re in the final. So to celebrate this event, – Read More-
The best name for any organisation in the world is ‘Dignitas’. Its just right. Perfect. Doesn’t say a lot yet speaks volumes. Other Swiss names are less noble, less dignified, less succinct. Like Sepp Blatter, for example. That says: bumbling buffoon, old git, stupid, stubborn moron. Whereas Dignitas is so neat. Yet they don’t advertise, – Read More-
… I smell the blood of a weasly little Swiss Mun. Its all, finally, gone to shit at FIFA, the world governing body for football. Or rather, the shit that has been happening for the past quarter of a century has finally come to light. Thanks to that most unlikely of un-footballing nations, America. They – Read More-
Why does it always come back to Batman? He obviously had a much greater influence on my childhood than I first thought. What would Freud say? And would it be in German anyway? But to summon Batman they used ‘the Bat Signal’. A beam of light in the shape of a bat which lit up – Read More-
I know companies get very protective of their ‘intellectual property’, aggressively, litigiously so. Try and open a shop called ‘Apple’ and see what happens. Even if you actually sell apples and nothing else. You’d have fifty-seven Madison Avenue suits on your doorstep with injunctions and court orders before you could say ‘we’re open’. All charging – Read More-
Its all a load of bollocks. All of it. Everything. Every word spouted by ‘the scientific community’ and/or ‘government agencies’ is total rubbish, lies, never to be believed. Statistically speaking. I went to the doctor a few years ago and they checked my cholesterol. “OH MY GO-O-O-OD!!!! FUCK MEEEEE!!!! ITS 6.2!!!!!!” They called an ambulance – Read More-
