Wigan Away The Pre Match Prattle

Good morning.

So here we are once more. Over our shoulder a victory of sizable proportion; the smell of Scouse blood barely gone from the nostrils. Ahead of us a shower of a team that on paper we ought beat by five goals or more.  But will we? The defining characteristic of last season and indeed seasons before that has been the inability to sustain the vaguest consistency. 

Dances with Scones is staring down the blade of a scalpel and The Times report that Tommy’s ankle needs to be ‘opened up again.’ Ouch. No only horrible but surely surgery to blight a big chunk of this season for him.

Where is Azza Blud? Still injured? I say Azza is still on the lamb in LegoLand Windor and refusing to come out except to mount snatch and run raids for fast food items from the hands of small children. A fortnight in, he’s become quite feral. 

Gallas is out but thought to be perhaps being readied for Arsenal indoors which takes place in a week and a day. I would imagine that King will rested for this also. Late fitness tests for Pav, A&E and Arry Redschnapp’s script writers who are reported as ‘being exhausted’.

This should be another rout in our favour. History has taught us that this is highly unlikely. History my peachy arse say I and 0-2 is my prediction.

    Winning this and gooners indoors will send out a big message to the league. Optimism at last!!!

    I think I’ll watch the bindipper drubbing again as inspiration in preparation for this one.

    Wigan are weaker so that means in the North West they will be stronger. If we turn up in the right gear we will win by four again but if we are in 5th gear it will be very nervy. Wigan will try to frustrate Spurs and try and snatch a late winner how they do it will be down too there Rugby League mates advice.?Spurs to win by three clear goals

    Would rather not see Bale at lb but if bae is out and rose still injured there is little alternative.

    It would be a big change to the balance of the team that played so well last week but we will have a huge amount of talent on the pitch so should be fine.

    After many years of reading this blog I tentatively make my first post.

    For me the league is everything. I want to be the best in England. I want to be able to look down on all those bastards who’ve been looking down on me since 1979. I want to rub their noses in it like I’ve had to suffer the scabs on my own schnoz.

    Games like this are now MUST WIN. No more being at home to Mr Cock-Up. We are equal to the best
    and superior to most. Make it count Tottenham.
