Roger's Top Cool Tip #635

When phoning in to a radio station to mouth off about how rubbish your team played, it's a good idea to know the result of the match about which you're moaning.

example (of how not to be cool): http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/21534620

Ha ha Roger! (nice one!)

Must admit missed the Forest match on radio in week and when somebody texted me and told me we had scored 6 (yes SIX) goals against Huddersfield I honestly thought it was the 'late' Jeremy Beadle (God bless him).

Still, we have King Billy back now ... should have know better!

Didnt Forest put 7 past Leeds last season? Mind you PNE put 6 past Leeds the season before, and still got relegated!!

Not looking good for QPR as Man. Utd sail off into the sunset and Arsenal are making hard work at taking three points at home to Villa.

I could not let today pass without a tribute to a childhodd hero, who left us twenty years ago today.

Mitchspur. Much as you'd like to be, you'll never be the good old Arsenal or even match the good new Arsenal.

But in reality this is the Arsenal of the last eight years, at times superb football, but let down by missed chances and schoolboy defending.

What,s more noticable is since David Dein left the club, it has all gone wrong trophy wise, as he seemed to control who they bought and the contracts and without him Wenger has too much on his plate?

A few days ago in there was mention Arsene wants him back

Bit too late for going back I think

Ian Holloways article 23/2/2013 has it summed up to a tee

Only pay the 4th highest wages in the EPL and you will finish no higher than 3rd/4th

"The days when he could use his knowledge to exploit a French market that was once untapped are now over because everyone else has followed his lead by extending scouting networks."

Mention of Arsenal chasing Falcao and being prepared to possibly pay 80million for a striker who couldnt even save his own from an exit in the Europa league recently says how much things are changing.
