Morning.
It’s Sunday and there’s not a lot occurring. Everybody’s away. The neighbours are selecting up the publish/feeding the cats. Truly, lately you will get computerized cat feeders. Or, you may simply go away a load of meals out, and sufficient water, and cats will likely be effective. That’s their entire factor. Then while you come dwelling they fake 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 gentle days gained’t be a giant deal since you’re all full up, or one thing. Simply don’t deliver dwelling half a mouse as an indication of affection. Kudos to your searching abilities, nevertheless it’s not wanted.
I did take pleasure in this through r/gunners – Stoke followers reacting to Aaron Ramsey. Or, to place it one other approach, Aaron Ramsey figuring out precisely what he’s doing after Cardiff Metropolis beat Stoke on penalties within the FA Cup. Clearly now he’ll face some sort of FA cost for being imply throughout a celebration or one thing, however truthful play to him. He remembers. We keep in mind. For some cause, 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 sport a little bit of an edge is the historical past we have now 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 objectives from Aubameyang and Lacazette – Stoke received relegated that season and haven’t been again to the highest flight since. Wonderful, 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. Apart from the Stoke factor, there was a to-do within the dressing room with Robin van Persie which the Dutchman got here out the flawed aspect of; and when legendary cunbtbag Piers Morgan tried to shake his hand after constantly berating him on Twitter, Ramsey mentioned ‘No, I don’t suppose I need to do 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 way in which, I do know that is the Day by day Mail, however that is precisely the sort of stuff Tim was speaking about in his column this week.
The language is so aggressive. Perhaps, and I do imply possibly, when you say Myles Lewis-Skelly must ‘watch out’, it may very well be the place to begin for a dialogue (though I feel that too leans into the double-standards which can be 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 certain 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 way in which, and the entire issues is – even by the requirements of that grotesque publication – disgusting.
Anyway, I hope you’ve gotten an awesome Sunday wherever you’re on the planet. Until you’re a Stoke fan or Piers Morgan.
Until tomorrow.
