Enjoy your tour of the Champions League. Leave it to the big dogs. 
In all honesty mate, very rarely is it ever a good day unless you beat Arsenal.
Blackpool is no joke.
But Tottenham is.
Really?? Coming from someone who supports a club that couldn't beat a fourth division team.
Beating Arsenal is just an added bonus. Our league placing at the moment justifies that we're having a good season so far, despite the odd hiccup or two.
Guardiola signs new deal
Barcelona coach Pep Guardiola has officially put pen to paper on a new contract which will keep him at the club until the summer of 2012.

Pep Guardiola: Eight trophies so far
Guardiola, who only signs one-year deals as a personal incentive to achieve, verbally agreed the deal at the beginning of this month and has now formally signed on.
Guardiola, who would have been out of contract at the end of this season, recently led Barca to an unprecedented 16 consecutive victories in La Liga which eclipsed a record set by Real Madrid in 1960-61. They have dropped only two points since being held at home to Mallorca on October 3.
The 2009 Champions League winners stand five points clear of Real in the table, and have scored an astounding 73 goals in 24 games. They are on course to beat Real's record of 107 goals in the 1989-90 campaign.
As well as winning the Champions League in 2009, the Catalan club also won La Liga, the Copa del Rey, the Spanish Super Cup, the European Super Cup and the Club World Cup while they defended their La Liga title in 2010.
"This morning, (club president) Sandro Rosell and Pep Guardiola signed the contract that will guarantee the services of the FC Barcelona manager until June 30, 2012,'' the club said in a statement.

Did anyone see all those fails by Benzema?
Deportivo must have used up all the luck they will ever get for the rest of the season. So many failed chances for Madrid.........I love it

Goalkeeping showcase today. Absolutely brilliant. His agents phone is gonna be ringing off the hook this week.
I think a week ago he scored the first goal by a goalie in la liga history.

Ashley Cole shoots Chelsea fan - report
Ashley Cole has been rapped by his bosses at Chelsea Football Club after he shot a work placement student with an air rifle.
According to reports, the footballer accidentally shot 21-year-old Tom Cowan from just 5ft away as he 'larked about' with a high-powered .22 rifle at the club's training ground.
The News of the World said he wounded the intern who was given medical treatment on the spot, but two days later the wound was still weeping and had to be treated again.
A source told the paper: 'It's truly inconceivable that a Premier League footballer could bring a gun to the training ground.
'But Ashley pulled the rifle from a box and started larking about with it in the changing room.
'Cole didn't know the gun was loaded but it's a disgrace. His behaviour beggars belief.'
The incident is believed to have happened last Sunday morning when £110,00-a-week Cole, 30, arrived for training at the Chelsea's Cobham training ground in Surrey holding the weapon, complete with a muzzle and nightscope.
The .22 air rifle is the most powerful gun that can be owned in the UK without a licence and if misused, it can kill.
Tom is a Loughborough sports student on a year's internship with the west London club.
Sources at Chelsea said: 'Tom screamed as this lead pellet hit him in the side. He was bleeding profusely.
'He was in agony and seemed to go into shock as he steadied himself and sat down on one of the benches.'
The weapon: A .22 air rifle gun like the one Cole is believed to have shot Tom with.
Tom was given two days off to recover and on Wednesday, was reportedly asked to attend a meeting with Chelsea bosses, who are believed to have gone into 'lockdown' over the incident and are 'deeply worried'.
The source added: ' A professional footballer bringing a gun to training is not just overstepping the mark, it's taking a running leap over it.'
It is understood that Cole has been reprimanded by his bosses at Chelsea and had also apologised to Tom.
But Tom's father Ronald, is said to be furious and is demanding to know what action will be taken against the England player.
The source said: 'He needs to know that Cole realises the consequences of his actions.'

That young boy could've been killed by the reckless actions of this insecure piece of shit.
This isn't his first run with the law, and certainly won't be his last. That's why his wife left his ass.I say ban this bitch for the rest of the season and dock Chelsea points.
Goalkeepers are scarce in North London. Wow...
That problem DJ only happens down one end of the Seven Sisters Road.
Sampson, do you need a tissue.....

Nope, I'm here. We've still got three competitions to play for... you?
On Thursday it will be two after Barcelona give you a beat down.
Your best chance is the FA Cup.
Doubt you are going to win the league.
Feel bad for the young lad Jack Wilshire
So so bad. The kid is a talent, and when Szceny went over to him to try and console him, he had that look in his eyes like he was ready to scream, "it's your fault!!"
He'll be alright tho. He's got many footballing years ahead of him.
Who saw Koscielny get his head rubbed after my man Martins scored the winner and they all went to celebrate? It was one of those "good job young buck" type head rubs. Wish I was able to make a gif of that but don't have to programs I need to do all of that.
Tough break Gunners.

How the fuck do Palermo lose 0-7 at home?
Alexis Sanchez scored 4 times, and Di Natale had a hat-trick.
edit- they were down 2 men, but stlll.

I dont understand why Arsenal won't invest in a decent keeper and some defenders.
Just got back from Nevada Smith's after bailing from work with a Dutch coworker.
