Hello again,
Today's news and Real Madrid director Pedro Trapote has unofficially announced that Madrid have agreed a deal for Cristiano Ronaldo, stating that the deal is "already done for the summer" but bizarrely adding about the deal: 'It's better not say anything now because there are some clauses that prevent us from announcing it. For us it would be the right time, but we shouldn't do it.' If he wasn't meant to announce any such deal, why has he gone and told the world's tabloids?! It's like going and telling a member of PETA that you enjoy nothing more than going out and skinning bunny rabbits and then parading around in their fur and not expecting said animal rights activist to vomit in your face and subsequently avoiding you for the rest of the evening.Foolishness to the highest degree. Sir Alex responded by categorically denying the allegations and stating that he "wouldn't sell Madrid a virus" let alone Ronaldo, which seems an odd thing to say as I also wouldn't sell a virus to Madrid, or anyone for that matter. I shouldn't think there is much demand for viruses these days, and anyone who is able to gain any form of currency from selling one is clearly a sales wizard whereas a three year old with absolutely no communication skills whatsoever could sell Ronaldo. Albeit, this three year old is particularly talented, but the point stands. Meanwhile, United managed to beat A Team I've Never Heard Of From Japan 5-3 earlier today. Sam Allardyce has been named Blackburn Portsmouth's ridiculously named right back Lauren has stated he believes that the entire Portsmouth team is about to leave in January, much like the staff at Woolworths. Already the first sign of Lauren's predictions coming true are seen through the news that Lassana Diarra, a player who has a strict regime of joining another club every 3 weeks, looks set for Real Madrid. Tristan predicts that in the next 12 months Lassana will play for all of the following: Real Madrid Inter Milan Bayern Munich Auxerre West Ham Tranmere Torquay Reserves Islington Under 11's Every single team in the Polish 3rd Division And finally will rejoin Portsmouth exactly a year later. For another 9 days. Elsewhere Tottenham and Man City are involved in some UEFA Cup matches, although Tristan cares not for the UEFA Cup and refuses to do much coverage on it's matches. He'll stop referring to himself in the third person; now. That's about all, cheers for reading, Good Day. |

Haven't done one of these in a while.
Last time around I made season predictions that seem have been broken and smashed in front of me, like if Santa woke up the small child he was delivering a present to, only to melt said toy infront of the child's eyes with a blowtorch;
Hull have surpassed Derby's awful record of -1215513 points and turned out to be actually quite good
Kevin Keegan left Newcastle early on and have no chance of narrowly losing out on Premiership glory. Again.
Instead the hired Joe Kinnear, a man who got more angry in one of his first press mettings than a particularly violent and angry man imprisoned in a room with the world's most irrating man,
Adrian Chiles, and forced to hear tedious stories about Chiles' love for West Brom for all eternity.
Tottenham took heed of my Juande Ramos warning and sacked him before the final game of the season, but instead of hiring Glenn Hoddle and being relegated, they've hired Harry Redknapp and
appear to be almost good.
Scolari's Chelsea have played some of the most exciting football since some circus acrobats formed a team and insisted on playing with lit fireworks on their boots for the duration of the
game.
Man City have been bought by a man richer than the Universe itself, and Chris Tarrant, and threatened to by every player in the world just to annoy everyone, yet have somehow been crap so far and find themselves in 17th, and the rest of the footballing world sat back and laughed, until City owner Sheikh Mansour threatened to buy every pair of shoes in the world and burn them en mass.
Titus Bramble hasn' t scored 9 own goals, injured 5 team mates and got Wigan docked 38 points after clattering into an old man in the stands and paralyzes him for life. Yet.
Arsenal's squad, with an average age of 12 and a half, for the first time seem to be losing to too many crap teams for Gunners fans' liking and there has been talk of Arsene Wenger, once owner of the safest job since Tony the Tiger's position as chief Frosties icon, being sacked. This will almost certainly intensify if Wenger doesn't buy anyone in the January transfer window whilst subtley getting rid of Eboue by strapping the hapless Ivorian onto the back of a rocket to outer space, or alternatively by selling him to Scunthorpe.
Onto the weekend's events, which saw all of the 'Big Four' (Arsenal, Chelsea, Man United and Steven Gerra- sorry, Liverpool) draw to mediocre teams in what can only be described as 'The Least Exciting Edition Of Match Of The Day Ever' which could only be redeemed by Gary Lineker doing some impromtu breakdancing with Alan Hansen providing beatbox backing.
Tristan personally backs West Ham to win the FA Cup and Premiership double just because he likes Hammers manager Gianfranco Zola so much, and hasn't based his prediction on any footballing analysis whatsoever.
That's about it.
Good Day.
