The Champions League draw makes me sick

Just look at it. It’s so open. The chances of an all-English final are pretty high, and we’re not even in the running. My Chelsea supporting brother is on a jolly jaunt to Valencia, and all we have to look forward to is a trip to Birmingham to play Villa on Wednesday.
Excuse my bad mood. An old woman called me a “moron” on the tube today. I didn’t get out of her way, forcing her to move precisely one yard to her left and side-step me. I guess when you’re fat, old, and decrepit that’s quite annoying.
Due to the fact that we’re not really in any competitions anymore, there isn’t much news about. I’m fairly certain that Emmanuel Adebayor has his hearing today for flailing his arms about in the direction of some Chelsea players. I’m sure the FA will come out with a fair, appropriate punishment. Like “death”.
Finally, on this happiest of days, I have to echo Myles Palmer’s sentiments on the Thierry Henry issue. Here’s Arsene in the light of another Henry injury:
“My thinking was – as you could see – he was not ready to start the game because he got injured. Again now he is out for a few weeks.”
Eh? So, he was not fit enough to start yet fit enough to come on and get even more injured? I honestly have no idea why Henry was involved on Wednesday night. It’s as if Arsene is saying, “See, I told you this would happen”. He did have the option of saying “Henry is injured” beforehand, you know.
Tomorrow I’ll be in a better mood. Possibly.
