Quick, short, full of nothingness

It doesn't half suck waking up in Belfast as opposed to Amsterdam. When that waking up occurs at 5am and means that it's back to work, well, it's just suck central.
The good news is that the Interlull is now officially over and we can start counting the wounded as they crawl through the door at the Grove. So far, as far as I can see (and I didn't look very far so don't take this as gospel) we have managed to come back from the Interlull with more players than we entered it with. Theo grabbed himself a dead-leg for the U21's last week but we can expect that to have rectified itself by Saturday, but he'll probably be on the bench having gotten practically no football in the one and only time Wenger actually wanted one of his players to go on International duty. From what I hear Almunia and Fabianski are back but I don't think Mannone deserves to be dropped. Nasri is back next weekend and that's just awesome, tho the rumours that Wenger might be considering playing him as a defensive midfileder is just nonsense as I feel we suffered when he played in a deeper role last season.
While away on international duty quite a few of our players from all positions managed to get on the scoresheet and its great to see that even a sore back couldn't stop Rambo slamming one home for Wales last night.Our players are simply on fire at the minute and I fancy at least another 6 on Saturday.
I'll save the match preview for closer to the match and I'm gonna leave it there today as it's amazong how much needs done when you've been away fro a week...normal service shall be resumed when I've shifted from Amsterdam time to Blurghfast time...

you have no idea how right you are
unfortunately, someone just ordered 40 t-shirt transfers and I have to sort them...should I be saying unfortunately? I don't think so lol
LMAO at the typos...wonder when Ole will get a spellchecker for their site, when I cut and paste from Word I get all manner of crap in my blog and I type too fast for my brain to put the letters in the correct order

Money comes before sleep. Don't forget us when you have the jet. Seriously though I know you are going to the Spuds game but when do you think you will be going again as I'm dying to make a Saturday trip to The Emirates.

How about we try and get to the Everton match in January? Was going to say the Stoke match in December but I'm working that Sunday. Or how about you pick a Saturday match you're free for and I'll make sure I'm not working the next Saturday.
.
There's also Sunderland in Feb, Burnley & West Ham in March, Wolves & Man City in April (tho they'll probably move the Man City match - I def want to be at that one) and Fulham in May but that's the last match of the season so might be hard to get tickets given that we'll be parading the League trophy at that match
I know Garantia is busting to get going as well and to meet everyone
Just saw that Arsenal have released their iPhone App so off I shuffled to the iTunes store to get what I stupidly thought would be a free App...£2.99...now I know that's not a great amount of money, but it's the principal.
£30 for membership per year, £3.99 per month for ATVO, ticket prices, merchandise...isn't that enough?
Surely it should be free, you're letting them have access to your phone to send marketing material directly to your pocket...and they want you to pay for it?
All that being said, I'll probably huff and rant about it for a few hours and then purchase it anyway...
and it's offering match highlights, so does that mean there is going to be a monthly subscription fee? should be able to login with ATVO account I suppose, but in that case, why can't they provide it as part of that subscription seeing as up until this app you couldn't even access ATVO if you had an iPhone due to compatibility issues...
I know we live in a financially-driven world, but it does seem that Arsenal get more and more grabby about our cash and the fans get more and more alienated from the club..
Reply to LadyArse:
If those match highlights are free I´ll eat my proverbial hat. I would pay the 3 squids to be able to watch the Verminator bang in his 13th and 14th goals of the year against the Spuds next year!... On REPEAT

I'll check out the fixture list and let you know tonight what games I can make.

I'll get the beers in...
Wot yooz 'avin?
heh heh...
Reply to LadyArse:
You should put those questions on an email to the makers and let us know what they come back with.
I've always thought that some sort of mobile access to ATVO is long overdue... especially when the DRM protection doesn't allow you to transfer your d/loaded vids to any other device.
Now... do you lot prefer peanuts or crisps?

A bottle of Heineken preferably but I'm not too fussy.
I'm all on for the Everton game on January 9th.
