Fat Barry & Liverpool

..And Now The End Is Near

Hopefully the Gareth Barry saga will soon be over.

I saw his debut and well remember John Gregory publicly stating that the Brighton Chairman wouldn't recognise him if "he stood of the beach with a seagull on his head" when we had to pay some compensation.

Gareth has been club captain for some time but his attitude over the summer has been a disgrace and to slag off Martin O'Neill, the man who turned him into an England regular, is unacceptable. His handling of the situation, especially through his agent has seen any chance of him leaving with good wishes disappear.

It's like Dwight Yorke all over again. Now Gareth can expect the same welcome that Judas himself got when he came back to VP with United.















This time though, the Fat Spanish Waiter at Anfield won't be buying from Doug Ellis. We won't cave in when the second bid comes in and now we don't need the money.

Gareth Barry can rot now - he's become irrelevant to us. He can pine all he wants for Stevie G and the Champions League - unless Liverpool stump up the cash, not including add-ons or bench-warmers, he won't be going anywhere. What makes me laugh is the actual price - I've seen him play hundreds of times and many, many dreadful and ordinary performances. £18 million - we're having a bit of a laugh there too, but fuck Liverpool. If they want our Captain and England regular then pay the fucking asking price.

He's a good player, a good team player but nothing more. He's not our best player and he'll end up a very small fish in the Anfield goldfish bowl. If they think he's better than Alonso then good luck to em!


Witcombe Away

I played my second Wednesday night match of the season for Down Hatherley CC the other night. In haven't played a proper game since Daniel was born and it was nice to be asked back by Down Hatherley, last Club I played for when he arrived!

My knee's been pretty shit since the first game but held up enough to bash 13 Not Out at the end of the innings including a huge four back over the quick bowlers head that bounced once just before the fence.

I knew I still had it in me!

We played Witcome, and what a lovely setting it was.
















In the first game I only managed 9 and was bowled by a very useful quickie who got the next 4 wickets after mine! I still haven't even had time for a net session!
