Let's talk about Big Brother UK first up.  Tonights five new housemates are settling into the house next door and Acetylene is being herself.  The new people seem so much more interesting and alive than the people in the main house.  Why has it taken so long to get interesting and intelligent people in the house??  My main problem is that there will be five people going back into the house and the numbers should be falling instead of getting bigger.

England match tomorrow.  IF they manage to scrap through this fixture the next game will be very tough indeed.  Hopefully the tactics and formations will allow forward movement and shots at goal, instead of Rooney running up the pitch for no reason, only to have to run back and win the ball himself.

The new manager will be very very welcome even if by some surprise or fluke we win the World Cup, Sven will not go down as a great manager.  He's a bit like a player who doesn't work out as he's supposed to, after the fee's and wages have been paid, I believe if England win the Finals, it will be despite Sven, not because of his decisions.

It's time for Rooney and Beckham to take the team on to the pitch and start calling it how they see it. You can be loyal to a manager, but only if there's respect there.  England plays well in an attacking formation.  That doesn't have to mean there is no defence, it does mean we need atleast two people, storming up the pitch and taking shots on goal, or kicking it in front of the goal.  I'd personally go with three forwards if we've got em and let the midfield wingmen run up alongside those.

On any given day, David can beat Goliath.  I just hope we remember to pack our slingshot and rock.
