A Little Itsey Preview

Preston (AP), 21 August 2009 -

AP as in Arsewiping Press, incidentally.

Anyways, one day to go to our first day of the season at the Emirates, so there's lots of excitement to go around. Here in the Northwest of England, with the likes of Burnley, Liverpool, Manchester, Blackburn, Wigan, Hull, etc to go around, the talk of the last fews days has been on Burnley's little moment in the sun. How nice. Two games played, and both Pool and Man U have already lost one. But dear friends, let's not get into all the crap going around about their chances, Chelski's position, etc etc etc. So Chelski have beaten Sunderland and Hull in their opening games. Big hairy deal.

Frank Lumpar: "We have now got a little bit of a lead over them and Liverpool. It is nice to get your noses in front."

Yes it is. Now shut up. Not really noses, more like nose hairs. And actually, you've still got Spurs (of all people) ahead of you, so more reason to shut up.

The start of the season, with Everton getting whipped, Villa having zero points, Spurs with 6, Citeh winning their first, Pool losing, Man U losing, etc etc has got everyone talking about how "close" this season is going to be. Well. Last season was "close" too, and that did not involve Spurs or Citeh. My prognosis is that we all keep our claps shut. For all you know, Citeh and Spurs will flop at just the right time, and we'll be left with the usual four. The loss of Ronaldo and Pool's dependence on Voronin has probably just made it a tiny bit more interesting.

Ahead of our game, Pompey have lost their first two, and look really poor. Let's hope it carries through to Saturday. Nobody else is injured (shocked gasp!), and we could start with the usual 11 again. Hope we give Cesc a rest if things go well at half time.

Alright then. Hopefully, will report from London tomorrow. Fingers crossed!

Signing off.
