The Gareth Bale Venn Diagram

Good morning.

Bloody minded people tend to fall into two catagories.  The ones you can reason with and the ones that are so impervious to rational thought that even if their intentions and assertions made a scrap of sense  you just know that they are going to screw up anyway.

“We haven’t a natural wide-right player apart from Aaron Lennon but Gareth can play there.

“People who moan don’t understand the game. People switch wingers now.

“Lots of left-sided, left-footed wingers play on the opposite side. It happens all the time.

“Bale likes playing there. He plays there for Wales and Gary Speed played him there all the time. He played wide right — he didn’t play left.

“He did all right against Everton. He did better than he has done on the left in the last few weeks — it’s not a problem.”

Arry Redschnapps speaking to the Sun


Faced with this level on intellectual analysis it is difficult to think of much to add that might be constructive.  Oh well, it was very nice while it lasted.

That’s what she said.

        Saw that and thought it was hilarious. Just a few weeks ago they all wanted Rosicky gone. Couple of goals later and he’s bettter than the best deep lying playmaker in the prem.

    Regarding Harry persisting with the Bale Experiment, I’m getting flashbacks to his persistence with Crouch and all those long balls, when Harry tried to convince everyone Pete was doing marvelously well.

    Harry is right; few of us hanging around on a blog know more about football than he does. But he does seem to fixate on an idea at times and carries on with it overmuch, even when most observers think it isn’t going well. It seems like a defense mechanism to insist his plan is working much better than the evidence suggests.

    Harry knows as much about Football Tactics as a Pig knows about a Bank Holiday. The guy can’t even do joined up writing ! There, I’ve said it.

    Evening all! Uncle here!
    Well guess what? during the war I had a run in with a German SS Panzer division whilst fly fishing with J.R Hartley.
    So I finished my cheese and pickle sandwich, put down my tackle, leapt in to my bren gun carrier and beat them all off with a spud gun, well actually it was a bren gun, and to be fair it wasn’t exactly an entire division confronting me, more like single motorcycle/sidecar thingy, and did I mention that there were 9 other bren gun carriers with me.

    So there I was being smug and all, celebrating our glorious victory, stood there in my kakis smoking a senior service convinced I had just won the war, oblivious to the world around me.

    My number two old J.R Hartley said “Ah thats done em, come on Sir we don’t need to worry about the war no more lets get back to the fishing”

    Well we did but the hun did not, and whilst we were fishing with our backs turned and our guards down those bloody Jerry’s came back and shot us to pieces until only my single bren gun carrier remained.

    I remember driving away looking over our shoulders at the smoking motorcade that was the other 9 vehicles and I said to old J.R Hartley “I think we might have taken our eye’s off the ball old bean” to which he replied “Your in France and your driving on the wrong side of the road” – “Bugger” I said!

    Must dash, old Margery has got some new rubber fetish gear and a freshly baked victoria sponge waiting.
