Therein lies some consolation.
I have removed the offending image from the right-hand side of your screens.
In future, if I provide previews of kits, I will make the face that of a suitable fellow such as Peter Crouch. The sort of lanky misfit that we don’t want at our club.
Zat Knight. There’s another one.
But yes, the too-good-to-be-true transfer of Julio Baptista has finally collapsed under the weight of an offer from Real Madrid. He should he unveiled as the latest Galactico come Monday. First Robinho, then this. No wonder we didn’t want to sell them Vieira. Perhaps this is their revenge for us sneaking him off to Juve behind their backs.
So many conspiracy theories, so little time.
Oh well. I’m sure we’ll sign someone else, like…
erm…
So anyway, we beat Ajax 1-0. And Arturo Lupoli got the goal, very late on, after some good work from substitute Alex Hleb. He looks a tidy player, who loves to run at defenders. Another promising performer was substitute David Bentley, who made an appearance on the right-hand side of midfield, and put in a lot of very solid work.
On Sunday we face Porto.
That’s about it, really.
