Yup, It's another earth shattering 'Ford Super Sunday' on Sky, with Stelling and the boys rubbing themselves into an almost mastubatory level of pure excitement at the comming festival of football.
And for once, the line-up might just about justify the hyperbole.
Obviously the fixture at the Emirates isn't quite the same as it would have been in the past when Tottenham actually provided a proper rivalry to Arsenal, rather than just a geographical one, but i can never get bored of watching 'Twitchet' going balistic over the latest mishap for his ill stared assembly of very expensive footballers. Redknapp has spent the most money of any club in the Premiership in January, more even than the comedy stylings of Mark 'kaka' Hughes at Citeh, and seems intent on reasembling Tottenham teams of the past in the hope that it might work better than having a squad that look like they met on a bus. Anyone know what Teddy Sherringham is up to? Actually, don't be ridiculous, we all know what Teddingham is likely to be up to at this time on a Sunday.
After the warm up men have done their shtick, we move on to the main event. West Ham United versus some small club from Salford. Helpfully, ESPN have been trailing the game all week on their 'classic' channel by showing the '94/'95 Season meeting in which a fantastic strike from Michael Huges earned West Ham a well deserved draw and Blackburn Rovers the Title. Marvelous.
As much as Liverpool and Chelsea have been busy snatching defeat from the jaws of victory and throwing away a 1o point cushion in the case of the scousers, The Boleyn Ground hasn't been a happy place for the Gorbells wine enthusiast and his well behaved and admirable bunch of decent young chaps. Lets hope for the sake of Football and all that is decent and good in this world that Carton Cole seals a win for the Hammers again this afternoon.
Yes, that Carlton Cole. I kid you not, an unlikely strike rate of one a game for the last half dozen Premiership games has got CFC a call up to the England squad. Ladies and Gentlemen, the world has indeed gone fucking mental.
