You Gotta Blog Blog Blog

The delicate art of procrastination mastered by me leaves one in unique situations . So this is what happened . My car got a flat . No big deal. I put on the spare an went on my merry way . For the next three months . An then the day my mom took my car , the hereto loyal spare went boom. obviously right . An the best thing is that it all happened an hour before this weeks matches . Again obviously the time that my chronic procrastination problem forces me to blog in . Bottom line. This live edition me plastic armchair comes to you while i stand with dirty hands an two flats . And a prayer on my lips that the boss don't tow away my car.

So what are this weeks highlights .

Gunners- Newcastle - First up you have the Gunners taking on the normally clueless bar codes. However much Arsenal sucked last week I really doubt if the Martin less New Castle can take anything away . Home Win - with a goal for Adebyor

Chelski vs Tottenham . . . 4-4 - that was the score last time these two teams played in the league. However, this match is at Fortress Stamford. And the Berbatov issue is far from being resolved. There is no chance in hell that Spuds will become the first team to beat Chelski at home in the league in the last 146685 years. However, I do quite fancy them nicking a point. Draw

Bolton v West Brom - Who knows. Who Cares. Draw

Everton v Portsmouth - Toughie. Pompey were done in by the fixtures calender. no way are the they worst team in the league, as the embryonic table seems to suggest right now. But then again Everton after their own opening day home defeat at the hands of the Rovers have their own agenda in this match. Draw

Hull v Wigan - Will Hull be able to sustain their momentum. Will Wigan be able to generate any of their own. Will anyone outside of these two clubs even watch this match. Draw

Middlesbrough v Stoke - Boro have been in an attacking mood and with good reason. Their manager Gareth Southgate has set their ambitions soaring with their being talk of, wait for it, a top ten finish. Nahh!! Actually excuse the sarcasm. That is progress for a team that generally has to wait till the last two weeks to ascertain their future in the next season. Home Win

West Ham v Blackburn - There is some personal history for the new Rovers Boss - Paul Ince in this particular fixture. He was originally a Hammer, an quite a blunt one at that. he fooloshly was caught in a ManU kit much before he was transferred. Cue the Green Street Posse getting pissed as shit and booing him to hell every subsequent time he came to visit. This time around he comes as a manager. An from the first looks, quite a decent one. But Curbishly is fighting for his job. Draw

Aston Villa v Liverpool - last years 6th taking on 4th. But everyone an their mom knows that this match is about much more than that - its about Gareth Barry - the (ex) Villa Captain's good name was sullied more than Lindsay Lohan's undies this summer after he was tantalized by his-best-friend-forever StievieG's club. And now that he isn't moving he'll like to show the Villa boo boys his commitment. Home Win

Sunderland v Man City - Both teams had impressive days last week around. ManCity got the better of the Black cats in both their meetings last year. However, since then Sunderland have gone forward while ManC back. Draw.
