Please Fergie say it isn't so!

So today I come home from work (best walk home ever, in the 80s in March....happy days) to the Bearded Devil and he is, as usual, looking at The Sun's football page. He gave me a grim look and turned the computer in my direction and I saw what I have been fearing for some time now

Alex Ferguson Prepared To Let Berba Leave

......Bleh.....could be leaving Man Utd....I frankly don't know what I'll do, I have been rooting for him for so long....he really did so well last season and I thought he'd be pulled back up in to the starting line up. And honestly I'm really, truly pleased that their bench is so deep that the top scorer last season is sitting out game after game, it says a lot about the team Sir Alex has built and I'm excited about where the boys could go in both the Premier and Champions League. And I think Bleh has a lot to offer and I hope if he does leave he is able to go somewhere where they can really use his skill. But it just....it just won't be the same without Bleh.


Don't let go Jack, Never let go!!

Game Day: Man Utd. vs. West Brom

Hi everyone, its been a while since our last post. We have been rethinking the way the blog will be laid out. It makes little sense to do a play by play since I have no option to enter it as a live stream during the game. So we are thinking that we will stick to my awkward profiles and our half time pie round up and our full game round up? So bly!

Half Time Pie Round-up

Today's match has been so far fairly uneventful if you don't don't count Phil "Just the Tip" Jones spilling over the barriers on the sidelines after attempting to get a header on goal. He took a couple seconds to get up and looked fairly embarrassed upon emerging. Its ok Phil we've all been there. Me particularly, I can't tell you the number of times I've run headlong into door frames, desk corners, weight benches....for 10 years of ballet I'm a serious mess so I feel you.

There was also some adorable footwork by my man Ashley Young. He had several good little runs to try and get open to get a shot off in West Brom-land and and when the defender finally got tired of it and beaned the ball into the crowd he fell backwards on top of Young. It hasn't been a great day for balance for sure.

There was a gorgeous goal pushed through by Chicharito and Pugs, absolutely stellar and well worth watching the highlight. And speaking of gorgeous I just have to lament the firing of Hot Coach last week. I knew it was coming but it still hurts. What will I stare at now every weekend when Chelsea is on the field? Certainly not at the actual game, I mean who wants to watch Chelsea? Hot coach made Chelsea games bearable, even enjoyable. And now....darkness and gloom in the eye candy department. In his favor though he has an INCREDIBLY attractive wife to go home to.

I mean, this has got to count as a win.

Full Time Round Up

So it has come to my attention that Pugs McPlugsy's Plugs are starting to look good! The Bearded Devil and I were admiring his less...wonky look and realized it looks like they are GROWING. And then we wondered if hair plugs could grow which led to a google search which led to this article (http://www.infobarrel.com/Do_Hair_Implants_Grow_After_Surgery) which gave us the answer that YES, yes they do. So I'd like to officially apologize to Mr. Pugs for doubting his judgement in the hair care department.

Its practically blowing in the wind!!

The second half had some great chances, that try by Chicharito that went off the goal post was heart stopping, we thought it would go in for sure. But once they sent off Olsson for what I frankly thought was a silly tackle, come on it wasn't that bad and they are already probably going to lose so just give him a harsh talking to, tell him he's on thin ice and to shape up and move on, the game was pretty one sided. I was hoping they would rack up the score to even up the goal differential with Man City but c'est la vie as Arsene Wenger says every single time he wonders why he's not as bad ass as Fergie. 

One other thing, this week Neckbeard D'Espagna announced that he would not be shaving until Man Utd wins the Premier League...and I'm just imagining how intense the neck beard will get, will he let it grow over his chin like a regular beard? Will it still just grow under his neck like a scratchy neck warmer? Is he like Sampson and all of his sweet keeper power is derived from his neck beard? These are all legitimate questions. Also I still cannot get over the quote about how the neck beard brings pleasure to both him and his girlfriend. I need to meet this woman. Also is her name Delilah? Cause if it is...WATCH OUT NECKBEARD, SHE WANTS TO CUT IT OFF AND RENDER YOU POWERLESS

Anyway, Man Utd. won 2-0 and joy of joys Man City lost to Swansea BAHAHAHA, losers....stupid Mancini and his silly scarves.

Soooo sad

Enjoy your Sunday everyone! Stay tuned for my Fergie profile this week!

Love always,
Gingers
