Ramires Pops His Cherry


You show me yours...
I show you mine...now you show me yours....
Didi wants everyone to see where his boo-boo was (hint: not where Kalou's was against Marseille)


Good Morning (Afternoon)!

Usually a Tuesday morning message means I’m feeling stroppy after a loss, but thanks to Sky Sports mucking about with the schedule, and we’ve faced another bizarre weekday league match. Sure, it means we get to be the star, but for those of us in the wrong time zone, sneakily watching some dodgy stream at the office does not make for the optimum football experience. Apparently, the gentlemen of this office to not care for random cursing and shouting at my computer screen. Who knew?!? Did you all know that ‘get the f*ck in?’ was not “office appropriate” language? And victory dancing also seems to be frowned upon. Lucky Danny Sturridge didn’t get a chance to shine....I think that a memo really needs to go out....

...anyways, another game and...wait for it....yes, that is actually another three points. And we did the double over Bolton. We had to do it to somebody, so the ever feisty Kevin Davies and company had to be the first (hopefully of many). We’ve had a bit of a dodgy patch, and it may not be over, but today, it certainly feels good. Coming through the weekend without losing our position, albeit fourth was decent, but the win felt immense.

Full credit goes to our rejuvenated Didier ‘I beat Malaria like Wilshire beats women’ Drogba. There was no doubt from kick off that he was going to score, and what an amazing goal it was. Forget Meireles’ strike at Wolves, Didi had the goal of the weekend (weekday as Sky has opted). It was immense. If I’m being honest, I’m surprised that he did not get any more. However, being the charitable man that he is, gave of himself helping out wherever he could. Not surprisingly, he also created the best comedy moment of the evening when he got a boot to god knows where from one Matty Taylor. To prove his lack of simulation, Drogba opted to show the world his boo-boo. Hands up if you thought those shorts were coming off in Nicky Bendtner style?

And although we were a tad sloppy in the midfield, and I’m waiting for the Bison to spring to life for a full 90 minutes.....ugh..I hate this bit.....I have to give credit to one Ramires. Yes, I have been a tad harsh on the lad, but do maintain that he needs to get himself more involved, and hit the gym. Maybe talk to Micah Richards about how to do that over a summer. Anyways, he took a lot of knocks and a few cards should have been given as he’ll probably be packed in a suit of ice today.....but he took those hits and kept going (for the most part)...and yes, got his first goal. The man love after was immense. Its quite possible that the star of our show, Didi, was more excited than anyone else out there.

For those of you who made the trek to Bolton, you were immense. Full credit for your Andy Gray songs which although did somehow not get acknowledged by the Sky commentary staff, did get props everywhere else. And to the knobhead steward who wouldn’t let Malouda come celebrate...you complete tosser. You should have let us have our moment. ;)

On to the weekend where we take on Everton ridiculously early in the 4th round of our...I mean, the FA Cup. Its an early kick-off guys, so everyone coming to Scallywag’s (and I do expect to see all of your hungover faces)....feel free to come in comfy pyjamas and slippers. I’m sure the staff won’t mind. I mean, unless you’re wearing those feety pyjamas with the bum flap...then there may be an issue. Anyways, a good breakfast and then a full day of fixtures after ours. We may even get to see our (probable) new defender have a hair off. Luiz v. Fellaini: Who needs to get the scissors first? Let’s hope its a little more Hairspray than Sweeney Todd.
