Oh deary me

Got the shock of my life this morning when i saw Paul Jewell shagging some tart all over the front of a down market rag! Aaarggh! Not surpised he lost his concentration at wigan! It's his kids i feel sorry for, i bet they're looking forward to going back to school. His wife i feel different about. Apparantly this whole affair happened just before he left Wigan and she didn't leave him, therefore i have very little sympathy for her now.

Yesterday we got beaten at Blackburn 3-1. Our defence looked shocking, so here i now start the official BRING BACK TITUS BRAMBLE CAMPAIGN. Chris Kirkland got injured so he is now also out of the England Squad to play on Wednesday. Blackburn scored the first goal, followed shortly with Wigan being awarded a penalty, good old Emile Heskey, knew he was good for something! Marlon King bagged but i bet my Green and Balcks easter egg that he won't score another all season, the lad couldn't find his arse with both hands! We lost Wilson Palacios in the second half for a second yellow, thankfully he'll only miss one match!

It was 'Super Sunday' today on SKY, hardly super but we all know what SKY are like with the 'big four' *rolls eyes* Man United beat Liverpool at Old Trafford 3-0, Mascherano got sent off for basically being a twat. Chelsea than beat Arsenal 2-1 at the Bridge. Arsenal seem to have lost the pace big time now and need to do something about their confidence and spirit, hardly the mark of champions is it.

"We've only got ten men....."

Wigan Athletic 1 - 0 Bolton Scumderers

12th in the league now, are we now classed as 'mid table'?

The biggest talking point of the match really was the referee. I very much doubt he'll be refereeing a premier league match again anytime soon so i hope he enjoyed it. Straight from kick off Emile Heskey got smacked in the face by the ball, soon as we kicked off again Koumas went in for a challenge and got sent off. It was the most farsical sending off i've seen in ages, and wasn't deserved at all. After that set back we adapted quite well. The referee got every decision wrong this afternoon for both teams, he really didn't have a clue. It's a good job the linesmen were there to make sure he got some things right.

We dominated the first half and were rewarded with an Emile Heskey goal, yes you heard it right, Emile Heskey scoring his 2nd in god knows how many games. He's lucky that Marlon Kings so crap and the flacks getting deflected off him for a while. Just before the goal we had a Paul Scharner effort 'cleared off the line' apparantly it was over the line but i'll have to see on MOTD later on.

Second half was a different story. Bolton came out the better team and threatened our goal quite a bit, the defence held steady though and Chris Kirkland made some great saves. Marlon King finally got subbed and was replaced by Kevin Kilbane. Good tactical move by Bruce as this left Heskey up front on his own and gave us a bit more steel in our midfield. We were never going to get another goal, the main aim was to stop Bolton scoring, and we did exactly that.

Good 3 points and pay back for that 4-1 drubbing at the Shitbok.

Baby Mia

My god daughter Mia was Christened today. She was very very good, even though we had to wake her up to go through the ceremony. She just sort of sat all day just staring at everything. She's a very nosy baby! She hardly cried at all apart from towards the end at the meal. She's gorgeous!

The ceremony was nice, not too long or preachy and the vicar was lovely. Mia wouldn't let go of her! The meal was scrumy i had melon and blackberry sorbet to start, roast beef and the biggest Yorkshire pud i've ever tackled and then chocolate brownie with red berries to finish. I was on a table with Charlene, Anton, Mia, Cheryl, Ste and my mum. We had the funnest table!

There were fun and games before the meal when Antons mum made a comment which Anton challenged her about, she then said she didn't even want to be there in the first place, so charlene marched over and told her to go, which she did with Antons brother in tow! Who needs entertainment!

Today there was also the small matter of a football match going on:

Wigan 0 - 0 Arsenal

Can you believe it! We['re now 13th in the league and two places above Newcastle! Cheer up Kevin Keegan.......

Bolton occupy the relegation places too, mwahaha!!

The match today was by all accounts a dull affair but who cares what the footballs like when your in this position.

Yesterday i bought a NINTENDO WII!!! Had great fun on Mario and Sonic Olympics and wii sports. My arms are killing me now though!

Man City 0 - 0 Wigan

Whoop whoop! Our unbeaten record against City continues. The match was dull though not many chances apart from Wilson Palacios right at the end who blazed over. This weekend we've got Arsenal at home and i can't go!!! :-( My friend is having her baby Christening who i am being god parent to at 2pm on Sunday and the match has been thoughtfully moved to 4pm on the same day. I was really looking forward to seeing Arsenal particularly Cesc Fabregas.

On the subject of the christening, i'm very excited. Got a lovely dress and bought some new shoes from Asda the other week a gorgeous cream patent colour. £12, bargain!

Not really much else to report. Work's boring, at the moment i'm researching Italy in preperation for our summer holiday. Rome looks amazing!

ciao!
