Honest outcome on life with Arsenal's 40/60

Image
  ARSENAL's 40% v 60% and life is completely wiped out of fans All the important life stuff on a halt this weekend because of this life defining moment this Sunday at 4pm in North London. 40% v 60% I said to my Transport for London buddies after a never ending 6-week (already) ordeal on calamity Northern Line. Arsenal is taking over handball (Paris-USAM / Malaga – Bera Bera) and fun activities (Seven Sisters cliffs walk, Nemausus bullfighting festival) on this disruptive Sunday afternoon. Arsenal history previous occurrences and sense of football beauty/justice and my own desires make me Martin lift the trophy come 6 pm. What disruptive scenario? If this does NOT happen, Lance Armstrong of football prevails. The blame lies with the PGMOL and its corrupt and incompetent refs/linos, the two worlds rule ruling the Premier League as 115 charges without any points deduction nor being expelled from the league. I may not be the most pleasant person to be around and I will have to ...

Copa de Donosti - el viernes de cuartos

Image
En la ciudad donostiarra la plaza de toros de Ilumbe luce de gran calidad emocional y deportiva por la Copa de la Reina cuartos. Cuatro partidos el viernes, dos partidos el sabado, una final el domingo. Poco a poco iba creciendo el publico. Granollers - ELDA 31-27 Dos equipos con mayor rendimiento ese ano en la liga. Empezan con un ritmo un poco decepionante. Algunas jugadas insolitas. Porrino - Valladolid 24-26 Valladolid sorprendio con una variedad de herramientas. Y una de sus jugadoras emblematicas se sento al lado de nosotros con fieles socios. Elche - Malaga Costa del Sol 33-34 Un partido tan estesante. Con estrellas y mucha incertidumbre. Aupa Merche. Aupa Silvia. Bera Bera - Guardes 35-23 Con comodidad el equipo local sale victoriosa. A por la lucha con el Costa del Sol.

Imbroglio

That's it the group stage draw for the EHF European League is at our fingertips with today's additional qualified teams in green Aguas Santas Milaneza - Belenenses  3 ahead on low scoring  Aguas should go through but not likely to be the most attractive match. A 12-goal win for Aguas Santas. Far too easy perhaps.   Kolstad - Irun  3 ahead on intermediate scoring Love Bidasoa Irun as I met so many players back in 2001 out of the blue of Erasmus days. They face a tough test to go through. Fingers crossed. I am often as excited as their fans. Expected to be tough and with 10 minutes to Bidasoa 24-22 trailing. 28-25 losing 12 seconds from the buzzer. Dramatic stuff.  Having won 30-27 the first le.g. Shoot out and various 7-meters missed and it finished 33-31 so Irun going through. Cool. FEJER Veszprem - Chambery 4 ahead and a win in Nimes were not a good combination to secure a group spot in the end as from a winning 16-15 Chambery lost 31-25 and it was 25-20...
