Transfer Deadline Day
I was flicking through the BBC website this morning and was amazed to see this quote from some Everton fan.
That he should text the Beeb in the first place about such a nonsense tells us alot about him no doubt. The word sad springs to mind. But his actual message suggests that while the circus may have long left Goodison Park a few clowns have been left behind and perhaps those tears that Smokey sang about decades ago are real.
2315: "That's me on the phone in the morning trying to get a refund on my Everton season ticket. Moyes will leave soon. Worst transfer day ever."Totally depressed Evertonian via text on 81111
Football and principles go together like Bar Mitzphas and bacon butties. It was surely no surprise to see that Tottenham have been given the best part of 31 million reasons not to complain about United's approach for Berbatov.
And yesterday Robinho, once linked with the Arsenal, was quoted as saying his head was already with Chelsea only to sign for Manchester City. Football really is degenrating into a farce and it is Chelsea that is taking us there under Kenyon and his master.
Real Madrid would be in their rights to complain to UEFA after the Stamford Bridge club went and started advertising shirst with the Brazilian's name on them. Trouble is, glass houses and all that, they were hardly whiter than white in their seduction of Ronaldo.
In a way I'm glad Arsenal rose above the undignified though judging by some of the comments I have read on message boards I am the only one.
It ain't about how much you spend fellas. It's about how you spend it. After horrors like Jeffers, Reyes, Hleb and others I'm perfectly happy for Wenger to keep his wallet shut. Berbatov would have been nice but like they would sell him to us!
