Hate
What is hate? Why do we hate? I’ve never understood why we hate each other. Maybe because I’m Christian I should hate you as a Muslim just because you are one. Why? Not all Germans were or are Nazis and not all Muslims are terrorists. Look at the IRA or the KKK. Terror organisations and not Muslim. Why should I hate you because you are gay, Muslim, Jewish, Chinese, Brazilian, orange,...
World Peace
People are always going on about how there should be world peace, blah, blah blah. It is possible you know. How do I know it’s possible? If a Dutchman, 4 Englishmen, a Serbian, a Frenchman, a Scotsman, a Welshman, an Irishman, a Portugese…man, a Bulgarian, a Brazilian, and a South Korean(and some others) under the command of a Scotsman, with the following of at least 1 billion people...

First United Match →
This is my new favourite blog because it is the best source of information about Manchester United. This story really hit home to me because about the same time(maybe the year after) I went to see my first Manchester United match, at Old Trafford too!, thanks to my Uncle Roy. The company he worked for had a box so I was in there, but we also had seats in the stadium. United won 7-1. It was...

Football is a religion
If anyone looks at my info on Facebook they’ll notice that my religion is Manchester United. Everytime I say this, usually jokingly, people give me shit for it. “That’s not a real religion” etc, etc, etc. Well let’s see: Catholicism - I’ll burn in Hell, Judaism - I’ll burn in Jewish Hell, Islam - (sorry for my ignorance) I’ll burn somewhere lol,...

Born on a Different Cloud
Born on a different cloud
from the ones that have burst round town
It’s no surprise to me
that yer classless, clever and free
Loaded just like a gun
You’re the hero that’s still unsung
Living on borrowed time
You’re my sun and you’re gonna shine
Talking to myself again
This time I think I’m getting through
It’s funny how you think
It’s funny how,...

Chances
The title really has nothing to do with this, it’s just a song I bought today lol. Things are changing. “The Doctor: The way I see it, every life is a pile of good things and bad things. The good things don’t always soften the bad things, but vice versa the bad things don’t always spoil the good things and make them unimportant.”(that’s right I’m quoting Doctor Who...
The Theatre of Dreams
I’ve been going to Old Trafford once a year for the last 5 years. I’ve been a Manchester United fan for as long as I can remember. But nothing can compare with last night. The night of my first Home Manchester United match.
The story starts about 6 weeks ago. I bought my ticket on July 16th and received confirmation on the 20th. I would be going to Old Trafford to watch Manchester...

It's not just a game
The two armies line up. They face each other. The objectives clear. Winning is the only outcome allowable. The battle rages on and on. Heroes fall, leave the battlefield, injured, disgraced, dishonoured. One side has the upper hand, but then the other retaliates. Legends are being born. Honour being fought for. Unbelievable riches lie at the journey’s end. But neither side can be moved. So...

England
It’s 3:00 a.m. on a Saturday(Sunday) and I’m still awake. Many people will ask why, many wouldn’t understand, most wouldn’t care(at least in America). In 4 hours England play Germany in the Round of 16 of the World Cup. Thousands of miles away 22 men will step onto the pitch representing their countries with pride and honour. While in the middle of Las Vegas at 7 a.m. on a...
One Blood
This is a song from Green Street Hooligans when they are about to fight their rival firm(band of passionate fans or hooligans). This song was created by Terence Jay, in the film, especially for the film. It symbolises the moment when they are all walking to the fight, some almost certain not to return, or to return injured, over something some people would call stupid or trivial which was a...

Little by Little
Little be Little by Oasis
We the people fight for our existence
We don’t claim to be perfect
But we’re free
We dream our dreams alone
With no resistance
Fading like the stars we wish to be
You know I didn’t mean
What I just said
But my God woke up
On the wrong side of his bed
And it just don’t matter now
Cos little by little
We gave you everything
You ever dreamed...

Things
I want to write so much into a blog but I don’t want to say a lot of the things because of the consequences that could come about because of it. Call me a coward if you want but it’s the truth. I’ve been very distracted lately because of certain things and I don’t know why. I’m paranoid someone’s following me, so paranoid that I saw someone when I was getting in...

Death
Today we were having a discussion about fizzy drinks vs. diet fizzy drinks and the cigarettes vs. marijuana. On the coke vs. diet we came to 2 conclusions. 1. Zero is better for you 2. Either way your going to die so do it. And it’s true, what doesn’t kill you these days? Not enough sleep can kill you. Too much sleep can kill you. Cars can kill you. Not driving and walking can kill...

Being a gentleman
Being a gentleman is very important. It’s what sets us blokes apart from the Geico cavemen and makes us more like our modern current forms. Here’s a list of gentlemanly conduct, and you can trust me because I’m English and we were being gentleman before you lot even became a country lol.
If it’s raining or a girl, obviously one you know it’s weird with strangers...
I don't know anymore
It’s true. I don’t. I just don’t. What’s going on? The world’s a place I don’t particularly want to be in anymore. I was sitting in my friends room, just thinking as Halo got too much for everyone A-gain. Not thinking about anything in particular, just thinking. There’s too much going on at the minute. My mum is disapointed in me and I feel ashamed, my...

Energy drinks
Before I start this isn’t an attack on anyone this is an explanation and then saying where I stand.
I don’t know how many people I’ve had tell me “don’t take energy drinks” “you need to stop drinking those” blah blah blah. And I respect that, but did anyone take the time to find out why I was drinking them? No. Here’s the reason. I’m a...

Problems
Why are there so many problems around at the minute? There are the large scale ones like war and the economy and that’s the government, but I mean with people. The people around me. I have my mental problems, whatever’s going on in there. But everyone seems to have problems. Facebook used to be full of “Lol”s or “HAHA”s, but now it’s full of scorn and...

This week's football
Wow a lot of football to get through, starting with the last match from last Saturday where Arsenal just won by getting a lucky goal from Van Persie against a Fulham side that should definitely have won. Then on Sunday Sunderland emphatically beat newcomers Wolverhamptons 5-2. On Monday Manchester City saw off an in form West Ham at Eastlands 3-1.
Tuesday Champions League:
Arsenal 2-0...

Saturday Football
Sorry I haven’t posted for a while, but I’m afraid in my absence there has been way too much football to keep track of what with International matches, the Premier League, and the FA Cup I couldn’t even try to keep up with it. So I’ll just stick with today’s matches.
Saturday September 26th
Manchester United 2-0 Stoke
Ryan Giggs was the pivotal player in this match...

Premier League Action Saturday
What a day for the beautiful game.
Results:
Manchester United 2 - 1 Arsenal
My man of the match for this game is a draw between Darren Fletcher and Nemanja Vidic. Fletcher because he was everywhere when he was needed, defending, shooting, everything. Vidic because he was solid in defence, next to Brown who kept giving the ball away, and his heading was out of this world. And I have to say thank...
The Champions League Draw
The Champions League draw happened today and I must say it looks bloody exciting this year. Usually we see matches like Maccabi Haifa versus CSKA Moscow(nothing wrong with those teams, just not the Manchester Uniteds or Real Madrids of the world) at this stage. Well!, not anymore.
Group A:
Bayern Munich, Juventus, Bordeaux, and Maccabi Haifa
A very interesting group, especially when Juve’...
West Ham vs. Millwall
West Ham vs Millwall is one of the fiercest rivalries in the world of the Beautiful Game, so fierce in fact that Hollywood made a film(Green Street Hooligans) about an American who experiences first hand what happens when these two meet. These two teams played each other again today. West Ham won 3-1 at Upton Park, although they needed extra time to do it because Millwall held them to a 1-1 draw...
Famous Manchester United fans
Here’s a list of some famous fans(if you don’t know who some of them are I don’t blame you most of them are English).

Also, in a statement this week after breaking a world record, and one of his own records, Usain Bolt said that he was a Manchester United fan. Thank you Insane Bolt, with your support I’m...
From 2nd place to 2 goal deficit
Last year Liverpool were on course to win the title and may have done so if it hadn’t been for their incredible lack of form from January onwards when they were drawing against anyone and everyone and if Manchester United hadn’t found their form at that time as well. Where are they now? Well today they had a chance to overtake Manchester United and go up the table. What happened at...
Sunday football
It was an exciting day in sport today with England regaining The Ashes title in cricket, Federer beating Andy Murray to win another title while one of the Williams sisters lost to Dimentieva in the final, and Inter Milan(the Serie A champions for the last 3 - 4 seasons) could only scrape a draw against newly promoted side Bari through an Eto’o penalty. Then there were the traditional Sunday...
The other Premier League results
As much as it confuses me I do know that there are some people out there who don’t support Manchester United, so I will put up the results of the other matches as well and occasionally go in depth about them depending on the match.
Arsenal 4 - 1 Portsmouth
As much as I hate to admit it, Arsenal do look like a force to be reckoned with this season. I thought that they would struggle since a...
Manchester United, Michael Owen, and Ronaldo?
Manchester United 5 - 0 Wigan
Five amazing goals gave Manchester United their second win of the season at the JJB Stadium, two from Wayne Rooney, one from Dimitar Berbatov, one from Michael Owen, and one from a Nani free kick. United dominated the 1st half of the match, but Chris Kirkland kept the score at 0-0 for Wigan. After half time though, it was a completely different story. Wayne Rooney...
Good News
Good news, especially for everyone in America without Fox Soccer Channel or Setanta Sports, Manchester United vs. Wigan is on ESPN2 at 6:55(Pacific Time). Enjoy, I know I will.
How this works.
This blog is to inform people of the goings on in the Premier League, Champions League, and the important matches that happen in International competitions and also as a chance for me to vent about things in the footballing world. For example, I’d first like to vent about Manchester United vs. Wigan. It hasn’t happened yet, but the television says it isn’t on. Why is Manchester...
