Sad thing is, he's probably the best of a bad bunch! Certainly didn't fancy that runt Venables. If he can steady the ship pick us up some points then he's his job. Best news out of this appointment is the news that sale of the club is close & Keegan will most likely be returning to the club.

As I said to Lindsay last night. Chicago Fire is now my team Brilliant win last night against LA Beckham.

Portsmouth v Tottenham 2-0 (OMG, we kept a clean sheet!)

Doncaster v Southampton 0-2 (Right score, right margin, wrong way round)

Sheff Utd v Watford 2-1 (Watford, you let me down)

Hibs v Rangers 0-3 (The win was right, the score wasn't even close)

Brechin v Raith 2-0 (My Scottish football isn't up to scratch)

Berwick Rangers v Annan 3-0 (See last comment)

Watching a rerun of the Newcastle-Blackburn game. Dean Sturridge is the best co-commentator ever!! He's abit like Jonathan Pearce during his channel five days. Quality!!

Makes up for some of the dodgy guys we get on the fox soccer report. Apparently Spurs now play at Upton Park!!

Speaking of which, are those two losers (one's called Steven, can't remember the other pricks name, but they try and do the whole Skinner & Baddiel on a sofa thing, and fail miserably) still running that train wreck of a show on FSN?

I saw that show last year! Thankfully they gave it up. They brought in some new shows at the start of the season. Not the greatest, but if you miss any of the goals over the weekend, its a good watch. The phone-in show is pretty funny, they have a wee ticker along the bottom of the screen for viewer text messages.. so you will see messages like Newcastle suck... Man Utd rules...Giggs it HOT. Then the guest (usually Warren Barton) has to comment on some of them!!

Damn I miss Soccer AM.

And I don't get FSN here (Comcast sux), so I missed all of last seasons exploits and will miss everything this season, too, including our first ever foray into European football. Grrrrrrrrrr
