I hope everyone is singing 'Carling Cup Final' to the tune of 'Carling Black Label'.

Further football news: I saw Martin Keown again on Friday. He must love west Oxford, I'm always seeing him here.

For some reason itv also showed Portsmouth vs Leeds last week.

Obviously the carling cup is worth about as much as that

It really was

it provided some momentary relief from watching yet another dire, dismal, apathetic, amateurish Spurs team, who still somehow once again got through

Ange needs to win the trophy to keep his job, although I get the feeling he's not particularly bothered if he gets the hook.

last season southend also had a chance to make the play offs on the final day, but they lost and everyone else won sothey messed it all up as comprehensively as possible, but this year they only need a draw, so maybe they have a chance

spurs gave perhaps the greatest can't be arsed at all performance i've ever seen i think. if liverpool hadn't spent the whole second half mucking about they could have scored, i don't know, about one hundred goals, or thereabouts

every spurs match i've seen this year or so has been like that

just so inept, amateurish, apathetic
