Morning.
It’s Sunday and there’s not a lot occurring. Everybody’s away. The neighbours are selecting up the put up/feeding the cats. Truly, nowadays you will get computerized cat feeders. Or, you may simply depart a load of meals out, and sufficient water, and cats shall be superb. That’s their complete factor. Then once you come residence they faux they don’t love you anymore since you’ve been away however that by no means lasts after which they get all needy once more.
Which isn’t to say I view you all as cats. Removed from it. But when we’ve had a glut of content material of late, a few mild days gained’t be a giant deal since you’re all full up, or one thing. Simply don’t deliver residence half a mouse as an indication of affection. Kudos to your searching expertise, but it surely’s not wanted.
I did get pleasure from this through r/gunners – Stoke followers reacting to Aaron Ramsey. Or, to place it one other means, Aaron Ramsey realizing precisely what he’s doing after Cardiff Metropolis beat Stoke on penalties within the FA Cup. Clearly now he’ll face some type of FA cost for being imply throughout a celebration or one thing, however honest play to him. He remembers. We keep in mind. For some purpose, they took it personally when their participant smashed his leg into two items with what was a horrendous problem, and he selected to not settle for a mealy-mouthed apology.
I went again to the archives to seek for Ramsey and Stoke, and located this from April 1st 2018:
The opposite factor that lends in the present day’s recreation a little bit of an edge is the historical past we’ve got with Stoke, and have had down the years since Aaron Ramsey had his leg damaged. If an Arsenal win in the present day contributes to their struggles and pushes them nearer in direction of relegation, then I’m throughout that.
We gained 3-0 that day due to targets from Aubameyang and Lacazette – Stoke acquired relegated that season and haven’t been again to the highest flight since. Superb, and why not break this out once more for some Sunday enjoyable (for the report, as a result of I get requested this quite a bit, I don’t do the VO on these items).
Cardiff had three former Gunners within the aspect yesterday. Chris Willock (brother of Joe) and Ramsey began, whereas Calum Chambers got here off the bench and scored within the penalty shoot-out to ship Stoke out. Good lads. As for Ramsey once more, he’s all the time come throughout as mild-mannered kinda man, however there’s a severe character in there too. Except for the Stoke factor, there was a to-do within the dressing room with Robin van Persie which the Dutchman got here out the unsuitable aspect of; and when legendary cunbtbag Piers Morgan tried to shake his hand after persistently berating him on Twitter, Ramsey mentioned ‘No, I don’t suppose I wish to try this’, leaving that piece of shit to moan concerning the incident on-line like the large crybaby wanker he’s.
Talking of wankers, by the best way, I do know that is the Each day Mail, however that is precisely the type of stuff Tim was speaking about in his column this week.
The language is so aggressive. Perhaps, and I do imply possibly, for those who say Myles Lewis-Skelly must ‘watch out’, it might be the place to begin for a dialogue (regardless that I feel that too leans into the double-standards which are so prevalent within the protection of his aim and celebration). However ‘wind your neck in’ is what folks say earlier than they begin a combat.
It’s completely rooted in prejudice, and whereas he’ll argue this isn’t about race, it completely illustrates what Tim has mentioned in his article. You might be fairly positive the sub-editors and headline writers and social media managers know precisely what they’re doing with the language they use, which isn’t to excuse Souness by the best way, and the entire issues is – even by the requirements of that grotesque publication – disgusting.
Anyway, I hope you have got a fantastic Sunday wherever you might be on the earth. Until you’re a Stoke fan or Piers Morgan.
Until tomorrow.
