Just another week in $£!()$$%$

Greetings mortals

Have just flown in from nowhere in particular and as usual nothing changes.

The new Footie season is just weeks away and the riot season has already started f you were at Old Trafford. I can understand the anger the United fans feel towards the man who has stolen their company from under there very noses, but you really can't go and blockade the ground. You know that the police will do exactly what they did a couple of nights ago and Glaser and his sons will still own total control of the club.

We need tighter controls on who owns ENGLISH Football Clubs, and people like Glaser and even Mr Abramavich should be told to reduce their stake in the clubs to give the people a chance to be involved. Probably never gonna happen though and Glaser will walk in and systematically change united. Whether for the good or bad we will see.

There are just a few hours left until Live 8 and the question I ponder is -- will the many hours of great music succeed in softening the hearts of the G8 panel, will all world debt be wiped out and what good will that do when we have countries whose leaders still go round destroying those who don't agree with them and what about that new third world country - ENGLAND! As Teflon Tony strives to get us to agree to a European Constitution... Yeah, like that's gonna happen - we probably need more help than some of those countries whose debt will be wiped if Sir Bob and his all-star band have their way.

We wait with Bated Breath.

More soon

Up, Up and (Smack!) Ouch
