Wiggy's World

It’s been a few days now, and I’ve pretty much had the same song going round and round in my bloody head! Seems Smash has also had the song in his head for a day, and me singing the odd few words I know don’t help cos then he’ll shout and curse at me for putting it back into his head! Share and share alike in this office. I hope you all watch this, and then can’t get the song out your head for days too haha!

I’ve had a really serious week in the gym this week.  Been Mon, Tues AND Weds this week, and I’m still aching like hell.  I’ve even been for a little jog on the treadmill and saw the “calories burnt” reading creep up and up.  This all because John had the day off and said he’d meet me if I went straight from work.  Get to the gym and he’s busy “cooking my tea” Jesus man.  It’s been a tad warm at night, even with the window wide open so I’ve acquired a fan and that seemed to do the trick last night, altho I still didn’t settle till gone 1 this morning

So Man Utd’s latest target Karim Benzema has opted to join Real Madrid, which means they can pretty much field an international team of strikers, with Casillas having to do all the defending.  All these expensive midfielders/strikers are arriving, and they’ve managed to sneak one of the hottest Spanish defenders under the radar from Valencia in Albiol.  Him and Sergio Ramos should be decent at the back. Oh how fickle Man Utd fans truly are.  Only a month ago the Fake Ronaldo was the best player on the planet, and no-one could touch him, “He’s not for sale”, He’s miles better than both Kaka and Messi etc etc.  Then news broke he wanted to go to Real Madrid and they’d had the offer accepted and then came the “He’s over-rated, he’s a prima-doner, a diving b@s#ard, who won’t play for the team! Also he’s now 3rd in the best player on the planet ratings behind Messi and Kaka.  how Man Utd fans brains work is beyond me.  All them who slated Michael Owen saying he’s past it, and all he ever had was his pace to run onto threaded/longballs from Gerrard, now feel that he’s the sort of prolific goal-poacher than Man Utd defo need.  He’s no longer a cripple, but the ideal person to throw off the bench.  Quite how their mind works is beyond me, and I only agree with the 2 mancs at work for comedy value   The Championship is where the real men earn their crust this season.

Talking of this season, seems Newcastle are quite an attraction for the cameras! Our opening fixture away at West Brom (7th August) is on the BBC of all places along with our away game against Ipswich (26th September), as well as Sky cameras taking in our home games against Reading (15th August), Leicester (31st August) and away game at Cardiff City (13th September)  Quite looking forward to seeing these games, and hopefully we can get off to a good start in the league, rather than playing catch-up!
