Perhaps I'll show a bit more restraint myself in future - up till now I've had no qualms about walking up to a girl in a bar or…

What a dismal result. UAE are not ranked in the top 100 in the world by Fifa, and they even dragged Nakamura away from the Pub League for this game. Still could only manage a 1-1 draw?

The sad fact of cheaper tourism is that one has to go to even further parts of the world to live off the facade of England being a land of gentlemen, rather than the reality, a land of drunken aggressive arrogant yobs. Mars here I come.....

When I am not on the computer, I am a weedy little bespectacled runt, with a crap job, crap hair and no social life, who couldn't punch his way out of a paper bag.
