The FA Cup final 2015

Just saying :-)

Arsenal through to Champion's League

What an absolutely great game Arsenal had against Besiktas who kept the pressure on and as time ran out the pressure just kept on rising - sad to see them lose but thankful that Arsenal are in the hat for another season of Champions League football (along with City, Chelsea  and Liverpool). Thank goodness, thought Arsenal were going to have to share a coach with Man United for a few minutes back there!

No, no, no, the new Man Utd coach I meant was van Gaal!

Oh Vicar - all you do is work (1)

Can I just say that that's not true - I do find time for myself and have a number of interests and hobbies that creep into and out of the picture from time to time. OK, there are times of famine insofar as those that call me away from the parish are concerned but my books, music, writing, theology and other stuff all continue to create some space for my and help maintain what little sanity I might have.

So here's one of my passions for you to understand how I've suffered (and indeed been blessed) over the course of my life supporting the Gooners:

From Sheffield and Bob Stokoe's Sunderland through to oh so many cup finals I've been there - winning, losing and carrying on - a football team is for life, not just the seasons when they are winning.

There's also Southend United, Reading, Wycombe Wanderers, Marlow and (of course) Tamworth FC - with a late entry into the 'love list' of the Baggies too - boing boing!!

Football - not so much a sport  - more of a faith statement

Made me smile - Premier League Table

Well I have to say that it worked for me :-)

What a strange start to the season when five games in Man Utd are below Southampton.

Happy Tuesday guys
