A little late, I know.

Just thought I’d show you a couple of photos from my wonderful Birthday, namely the evening when about 17 of my nearest and dearest family gathered around to celebrate how fab Matty is - what a fantastic idea!

Here’s Tiny and I. I know it looks as though I’m forcing her to stay there but I’m not, honest.

And the lovely 21st Birthday Cake with a picture of me when I was about two or three, look at my blonde hair!

Well, hello there, How are you?

Six home first-team games brings an obvious workload for everyone’s favourite “part-time” employee, but I thought it vital to take a few minutes out of the madness to come and ramble with you.

Reading v Man United last night, What a game!! Tiny and I, admittedly, were rooting for the Royals last night but even we were left open-mouthed to see three goals pop in at two-minute intervals from the start of the game, not great stuff.

But what a second half, Man United deserved to be ripped into for playing in such an arrogant way, the BBC deserve to get ripped into for being their usual patronizing selves. 3-2 with six minutes to go and Reading hit the bar, cue John Motson to say “You know, Reading really think they can win this!” Oh really? What an idiot.

Quote from Tiny: “Ronaldo should be ripped into for just being Ronaldo.” Harsh.

GAVIN WARD, WHY WERE YOU THERE LAST NIGHT AND WHY WERE YOU AT THE CARLING CUP FINAL? You still look about eight years old, you should have been in bed.

It was never a penalty against Stevenage by the way, great tackle Hats. Anyone remember Laura’s amazing tirade?

Anyway! Arsenal got themselves knocked out of another cup tonight! Ooops.

BOOTED: JT Feels the Force

Well, well well. What an eventful final, I wasn’t even going to bother watching it! But I’m glad I did. I thought Exeter were the worst in the land four their ‘holier than thou’ approach to everything but Arsenal take the biscuit, yeah they play some nice pretty passes for 45 minutes but that doesn’t give you the right to win Trophies, let alone start getting violent.

I’ll most likely delete any ‘comments’ on this thread from Tiny, such his her blinkered one-sided view of all things that is Arsenal. She claims mine is the same in the opposite way but it isn’t, I can admit they passed Chelsea off the park in the first 45 minutes, but it’s clear for me to see that they couldn’t get near the Blues in the second half, except when they got in a tissy because of that and started throwing fists around and the like.

Chelsea are deserved winners for me, Arsenal deserve their runner-up medals.

I still feel sick from watching John Terry’s head nearly come off his shoulders.

A few thoughts as always from tonight’s Match of the Day before I head for a much deserved sleep.

- Fulham absolutely battered ManYoo , How did they not get at least a point?

- Fulham should have had a penalty and Rio should have been sent off , why is it one rule for one and another for the rest?

- Ryan Giggs is class.

- West Ham United , KARMA.

- Charlton scored four of the best goals I’ve seen all season and they deserved every bit of their 4-0 victory.

- James Beattie , How does it feel to have been crap enough to have been awarded ‘Miss of the Season’ , you got that today!

- Liverpool , 30 unbeaten in the league at home now and Fowler is just old gold. Did anyone else see Crouch’s boot to the face? Oh my gawd…

On a completely and utterly unrelated and random note, I ask: Claudia Winkleman , why?

They all publicity is good publicity, I’m not so sure.

I can’t say a great deal, I suppose. Even though this is my own house (so to speak) and nothing to do with KHFC, I know I’d still get moaned at. Needless to say, Lee Elam got flattened at the weekend and a lot of the national media have been interested in it, namely The Sun and Radio One.

Nice clip from The Chris Moyles Show this morning, in which my hero Comedy Dave very, very subtly approaches the subject by saying ‘Didn’t your Manager chin somebody the other day?’ - Marvellous.

Personally, I agree with Chris and wouldn’t mind seeing a scrap with Harry the Harrier involved at some point.

Here’s the clip…..
