# 168: Big Sister
There has been an uproar as this years Big Brother house is entirely populated by women. Women are you sure? Kieran Richardson's cousin "Charley" has a mans name and looks like a man! In fact has anyone seen Kieran Richardson around anywhere!

# 166: Blackburn Rovers road into europe
In the years to come Blackburn Rovers current squad will be telling there grandchildren about the 2006/07 season and the road into Europe. They'll tell of how after a mediocre season Mark Hughes filled in a form. How this form was then put in an envelope, and a stamp and a little blue par avion sticker applied. Some will tell the tale of how the envelope was addressed to the UEFA head quarters, and placed in a letter box. Many stories will be told of the 4-6 week wait for a response, every member of the team willing the confirmation to arrive. Finally they will tell of the dancing at Ewood Park when that letter confirming that Blackburn Rovers would play in the first round of the "Intertoto Cup" Blackburn Rovers have today said that they will play a full strength team against Huddersfield Town for the pre-season friendly on 1st August, dispite needed to field a full strength team the same week in the Intertoto Cup. If Mark Hughes seriously thinks Blackburn need to filled a full strength team to beat either Llanelli or FK Vetra, then he better see if he can loan out the entire A.C. Milan side for the Town match!!!

# 165: You'd just kick yourself
Stuart Pearce has named his squad for this summers under 21 European Championship. Aston Villa's Gabriel Agbonlahor is not going, but why? Is he not good enough? No Is he too old? No No, Gabriel Agbonlahor, despite being told to expect a call he turned his mobile phone off. The FA couldn't contact him, after several attempts they gave his place to someone else! Moron!

# 162: A good stiff drink
There has been several reports today in the national papers and on the internet, that actress Eva Mendes has admitted that she has to drink vodka to calm her nerves before shooting sex scenes. What do they have to give her partners to make them want to sleep with her? A blindfold? On the plus side it must mean nothing bads happening in the world if this counts as "news".

# 161: Down with the kidz
Having my finger on the pulse of popular culture my musical tastes are always cutting edge. For example at the moment one of favorite "new" songs is "Temped" by Squeeze due to be released soon on cassette, 8 track single, or 12 inch EP. What do you mean it's not still 1981? Anyway I know my musical taste is crap but "Temped" is an absolute classic, and i urge everyone to get on Youtube and see the video someone has made for it! Basically theres a guy who shags around, then it stars to burn when he pees........ He's got herpes and has to ring round all his conquests to tell them! classic song and very funny video, Squeeze should release it, they'd make a fortune on the video jukeboxes alone!

Ryan Sidebottom makes only his second England start, after playing his only other test in 2001, has taken eight wickets the match against the West Indies today, following his four for 42 in the first innings. Ryan Sidebottom is thankful to have found a career in sport after his entertainment career in the early nineties failed. What do you mean this picture has been photoshopped? I can't believed you'd be so cynical!

# 157: Insomnia
As you can see from the time on the post I've had a another visit from my old friend insomnia! For me the inability to sleep equals watching ITV play and spending the night with my insomnia buddy Alex Kramer. Despite not being able to take my eyes off her for several hours at a time I can never decide if i fancy her or not. Either way she is the undisputed queen of late night quiz shows, she fills the hours with subtle head flicks, gazing directly into the camera, and general flirtatious gestures. I'm convinced a whole lot of psychology goes into these programs and I am convinced Alex Kramer is using every trick in the book. This evening ITV Play have let me down and it's the intensely annoying Zö Christien. I think I may lodge a complaint with the ITC!

# 156: Signs that your "partner" is cheating
I've just seen an advert on Yahoo for an article entitled "Signs that your partner is cheating". This artical has offended me on several levels: (and yes I know this is the second post in a row I've done in this form, don't worry I'll stop ranting and do sometime about Cheerleaders or Pies next time) 1. The article was sponsored by "Match.com", right so what? People who are in a relationship will read the article and think: mmm if don't know if any of that applies to me, but maybe I can meet someone on "Match.com" to have an affair with...... 2. If someone does decide to have an affair the article has told them 4 things to be extra careful about so they don't get caught! 3. It says if your partner says that they got stuck in the office there probably cheating!!! Well guess what I've never cheated but I do get stuck in the office sometimes and I get enough S*** about that as it is! 4. Four examples, all of them men cheating on women. I've looked it up, one survey says up to 60% of all the relationships in the uk where someone cheats it's the woman!!! Even the most conservative surveys say it's 40%. 5. When I did the google search for "percentage of women that cheat" two of the links were:

# 155: Coming soon to the Fox fall line up
I've just seen a story on the Fox website. I had to double check but it's not April 1st! Starting in August the Fox Network in America will start to show "The Award Winning" Dream Team season 6 at 9pm on Thursday nights. Fox are promoting the show as staring the "Beautiful" Nina Muschallik! I am dreaming right! (no pun intended) This is wrong on so many levels!! 1, Award winning what did it win? I didn't think BAFTA did an award for "Best soap on Sky One, about football, on a Sunday evenings, that guest stars Richard Keys", and even if they did would Dream Team win? 2. it's going to be on Fox not like Fox 97? 3. 9pm are you sure thats local time and not GMT? 4. 9pm on a Thursday wait a minute isn't that like the most important part of the schedule? It's going to be Dream Team on Fox up against: Grey's Anatomy on ABC, CSI on CBS, and The Office on NBC. Who is going to watch Dream Team? 5. Okay, so it's up against stiff competition but at least there new episodes. Wait a minute there not by the time Dream Team starts in the states we'll be on Season 10 here! 6. Thank god the Americans are addicted to football..... What do you mean it's not the same sport? ....... Oh! 7. Finally there selling the show on the back of it staring the "beautiful" Nina Muschallik as Nikki "Peggsy" Peggs. Beautiful? Really? You think?

# 154: Tots TV
While I'm on the subject of Children's Telly...... I keep being disturbed by the adult themes in children's programing, take Tot's TV for example: Tilly, Tom, and Tiny live in a little cottage, I'm guessing it's in The Cottswolds or somewhere equally upper middle class. As far as Tiny is concerned life is good, he lives with his two best friends the Intellectual Tom (who narrowly missed out on being on the the panel for "Eggheads", unfortunately the BBC decided to go with CJ instead) and seductive Gaelic temptress Tilly (Who is so xenophobic that she will only talk in French despite clearly understanding English!). For Tilly (the Nymphomaniac) and Tom (Tilly's submissive sex slave, who must do the bidding of his mistress) life is not so good they are trying to carry on an illicit affair and Tiny (who they see as the slow younger brother figure) keeps getting in the way! In the photo you can see Tom's hand raised ready to smash Tiny's head into the rock that Tilly has cunningly disguised as a globe.

Anyway you know who you are so feel ashamed! Other random "Kim Tserkezie" debates inclued are "Penny Pocket" and "Susie Sweet" lesbians? Er probably? And who is the fittest babe on the island? Well she is! (although to be fair theres not much competition)

# 152: The Doctor Who Scam
In the good old days a television program, such as Doctor Who, would be board cast once a week for 30-45 minutes. These days as soon as a program is successful spin offs and repeats are spread across the schedule to fill in as many gaps as possible. Doctor who (45 mins) is shown on BBC1 then repeated twice during the week on BBC3 Doctor who Confidential (30 mins) once per week BBC3 Doctor Who Confidential (15 mins) twice per week on BBC3 Totally Doctor Who on (30 mins) BBC2 then repeated on CBBC When you consider theres spins off Torchwood (45 mins) twice a week on BBC3 and the Sarah Jane adventures. Who needs new ideas!

# 151: Not you too Lauren Green!
This is now beyond a joke! It seems that there are at least two Lauren Green cheerleaders! On the left Lauren Green Leeds Rhinos and on the Right Lauren Green Kansas City Chiefs! If theres another Lauren Green out there maybe they can get together with all the Sarah Robinson's and form there own cheerleader group! This feels like a Monty Python sketch!

# 150: Maybe all evey team has a Sarah Robinson!
This is starting to get silly now! First there was Sarah Robinson cheerleader for Wakefield Trinity! Then we met Sarah Robinson cheerleader for Bath Rugby Union! Now you'll never guess what this young ladies name is and what she does! Believe it or not this is Sarah Robinson and she used to be a cheerleader for the Newcastle Falcons!

# 149: Would the real Sarah Robinson please stand up!
You know I'm nearly excited about this, nearly! Well maybe excited is going a bit far! After writing the last post I did a Google search for Sarah Robinson Cheerleader: There is two of them! What were the odds on that!! Of course you already know the Wakefield Rugby League Sarah Robinson on the left, now meet the Bath Rugby Union Sarah Robinson on the Right! Our friend from West Yorkshire is still top of the League but still! Maybe This is my big chance to move away from being the unofficial and unwitting Cheryl Tweedy fan club to being a fan club for girls called Sarah Robinson? If your called Sarah Robinson let me know!

# 148: Rugby League
Unlike the no nonsense entertainment in Football, cheerleaders seem to have taken off in Rugby League. So to Highlight this phenomenon the must mature thing I thought I could do was to make a "Super League" based on each Clubs most attractive cheerleaders. The things I go through for you faithful readers! The task has not been easy, for a start Bradford, Catalans, Harlequins, St Helens, Wigan, and Warrington don't seem to have Cheerleaders on there sites! Hull KR seem to have a policy of only employing cheerleaders who are under 18 and therefore not eligible for consideration for this league. Just out of interest with the previous post in mind I wonder if Hull KR employ younger women because they can pay them less? Maybe McJob should be changed to HullKRJob! 1st - For the first time every Wakefield Trinity are top of the League with Sarah Robinson! Winner of the first Rugby League Cheerleader Super League! 2nd - Heather (apparently she only has one name like Pele) takes the Huddersfield Giants into second place! She was let down by not having the cheerleader look, but bonus points for wearing the shirt (I wonder if she has an Huddersfield Town shirt?) 3rd - Emma Cumberbatch of Salford City Reds, classic cheerleader look! 4th - Lois (Again no last name) of Hull FC, with a classy black and white photo, see there are classy things in Hull! Well sort of if you think pom poms are classy! 5th - Lauren Green of the Leeds Rhinos comes in 5th with her kinky boots!

I know that this is being done to death in the media at the moment, so I wont have much of a rant. You all know the score right! McDonalds want to change the dictionary definition of "McJob", and are mounting a legal case to do so. Just a suggestion but, wouldn't it be easier to just pay the staff more? And why on earth would they want to change the definition? I've looked into the etymology of the world, originally "McJob" referred to being given oral sex by a clown!

# 144: Glory Glory Leeds United
Leeds United's recent run of "form" under the glorious reign of Dennis Wise has been a great source of amusement for everyone! My personal favorite (aside from the relegation) was the rumor that Former world Heavy Weight Boxing Champion Mike Tyson wanted to buy the poverty stricken club! Tyson, apparently, wanted to be the clubs fitness coach and start a reality TV show where the audience would be invited to ring in and vote for which players should play! In post #128 I bemoaned Glasgow Celtics lack of ambition by signing 'Paul “Older Than Time” Telfor', well less than a year and a half later, guess who Wise wants to sign now!!! I was just going to rant about Telfor being old and only being able to play for a club were Gordon Strachan was there to guarantee him a game. However, completely by chance, i found there is an "actor" called Paul Telfor who has been in 'Hercules', 'Spartacus', and 'Alexander the great from Macedonia'. Has an anyone checked that these are films and not just documentaries about Paul Telfor's life? Leeds should play on this there can't be many players who were at the battle of Issus and hold a Scotish League Cup Winners medal!

# 143: Childrens TV sordid love nest shame!
As a prude with way too much free time on my hands I had become increasing worried by the antics of Justin Fletcher star of "Tikkabilla" and "Higgledy House", on "Cbeebies". In both shows Justin lives with his on screen partner Sarah Jane Honeywell. In both the viewer is given the impression that Justin and Sarah Jane are a couple. The other day I noticed that Justin has a wedding ring and Sarah Jane does not!!! What kind of image is that for children, teaching them to read and count from a sordid love nest! This would never have happened on Greg Dyke's watch (Who has this year put all his efforts into leading Brentford out of League One, ok they went down but he did take them out of the division you've gotta give him that!) Anyway on todays episode of Tikkabilla Sarah Jane was asleep in the bed and Justin was asleep on the sofa downstairs! Obviously Miss Honeywell has finally had the strength to put her foot down and they'll be no more funny business until Justin leaves his wife! I'll keep you posted.

# 142: Where can I find a Soccerette?
Getting back into the swing of things now! For reasons to complex to go into right now, the other day I was looking on the internet for "Soccerette", "girl in football shirt", "women in football tops", and all the soccer/footy synonyms that I could think of. There is a surprising lack of sites devoted to women wearing football shirts. I mean of course it would be outrageous to suggest that someone might fancy a professional lady footballer, but surely a girl wearing a football shirt must come pretty high up on most mens fantasy list! For a start it's a chance to combine the four most important things in a mans life: Women, Football, Beer, and Pies (Assuming the lady in question is at the match and you have a Pie and a Pint, and if she's paid - Result!) Anyway I i can be bothered, to fill the gap in the market, I'm going to start adding at least on photo of a girl in a football shirt every week. Right week one! As it's the law we have to start with Huddersfield Town!! And she's wearing a pleated mini skirt what more could you want!

# 141: This site is better off without me!
As you can probably see from my last post I haven't updated this site in over a year. In that time the site has become ridiculously successful, well by my own very low standards at least. There was a time when I was updating the site daily and receiving about 100 hits a month, with about five faithful regulars. Having not posted in 16 months the site is now attracting over 500 hits a month with over 20 regulars despite the lack of new content! Anyway I know you only come here for information on Cheryl Tweedy and her latest tattoo, so i'll give you a little tip, search google for "Cheryl Tweedy Tattoo" the fifth result is for: "Girls Aloud Hottie Cheryl Tweedy Wearing Her Prostitute Shorts" Knock yourselves out!
