I did a journalistic writing course before. It's bizarre how formulaic every single article in a newspaper now appears when you see there are more or less 'golden rules' to it.
I watched a youtube lecutre/Q&A by Andrew Marr recently, he kind of criticised that form of journalism and said that he'd prefer to see more prose in reporting.
"Until Arsenal win something the dull football of the likes of Mourniho and Ferguson will still be seen as the way to go"
Hilarious.
Arsenal were outplayed today. . .and even playing a counter attacking game on Birmingham LMAO. Where was the "nice attractive football".
And don't DARE talk about Mourinho, and Ferguson in the same breath as Arsenal. Those two guys know which styles of football to change it up, to beat certain teams. Your lot doesn't Hence it's defeats. Hence no trophies for 5 years
So will anyone else be enjoying a quiet drink today? Raising a glass on today's anniversary?
35 years ago today, City won the League Cup, the last time they won a major cup.... I wish to congratulate the club and it's fans for such a fine job in reaching this milestone.:D

I'll be changing my Facebook profile pic to me with the Champions League trophy today and will be stopping off for a swift half of bitter on the way methinks
I drove past Wastelands this morning and actually said 'Happy anniversary!!'

Ah, I woke up with a warm glow this morning and might have a drink later.
I mean it's a day since my team last won a major cup
But given Clattenburg is making out he saw the incident and dealt with it as he saw fit, then that logically had to be the end of the matter.
You cannot have a free for all, reopening referees' disciplinary decisions ( many of which will always be debatable ) and inevitably personality orientated.
Some cricketer I've never heard off but very good news, I think. Someone in their prime of the career, at international level in a top class, popular sport comes out. I think it's great.
Just a quick question, if there is no NFL season next season, how does that effect us? If the Glazers are getting no income from their franchaise for one season, will that have a knock-on-effect as to how much we can spend in the summer??
Read today that Manchester United and Chelsea have been alerted to the unrest of Real Madrids World Cup winning defender Sergio Ramos.
The buccaneering Spain right-back is said to have fallen out with Real Madrid boss Jose Mourinho and his name has been circulated to leading Premier League Clubs.
Chelsea and United are keen to sign a right-back in the summer, although the 24 year olds, Galactico status means he will not be cheap.
Old Trafford chief Sir Alex Ferguson has yet to settle on a long term, first choice replacement for Gary Neville.
Hmm - if this is true, it would make a change to sign a player from Madrid rather then sell to them.
Why is he a Galactico? He's an excellent player, but he's hardly a Figo, Zidane, Ronaldo, or a Beckham type now is he? With the possible exception of Roberto Carlos ( Who dined out on THAT goal for years) Galactico's tend not to be defenders.

It wont effect us, mainly because the deal will be done and the season will go ahead as normal.
For all you nostalgic peeps, I have just noticed that on the channel called " Movies 24" (Sky channel number 327), the film "Manchester United: Beyond The Promised Land", is on at 7am today. (and at 8am on the +1 channel-number 328 on Sky).
They're a self sufficient franchise. It won't affect us at all.
The club itself maybe self-suffcient, but I was just thinking along the lines of, if the Glazers got any money from that side of things, during a season, and then used that money to pay for things to do with us, that might not be incoming, if there is no season.

We're judged by a higher standard than they are and have been for 15 years.

Oh Dear. That'll upset a lot of people. :rolleyes:

Remember it happening with the NHL a few years back, season got canceled.
League owners still get their money from television contracts though.

I hope there is a deal, but I was just putting the question out there, as there is still a chance that it won't get signed.
