Ireland's Date with destiny


On Friday the 11th of November Ireland surprised the country by actually winning a game comprehensively. The whole country can be proud of the team finally for overcoming a poor challenge from Estonia but a challenge all the same. Ireland have not been in a major football tournament since the 2002 World Cup Finals. Back then the team did us proud and the whole country are hoping the team can do us proud again. Ireland won 4-0 on Friday night and now have the return leg in Dublin on Tuesday night which will surely be jammed packed with Euro Final supporters. Ireland should really go out and try to put on some sort of entertaining performance back in the Aviva as they do have a four goal lead and unless they play absolutely terrible their is no way they should be able to throw that away. Our team on the night was quiet good I thought even though I disagree with a lot of the managers choices for first team players. For example Ciaran Clarke, Seamus Coleman and James McCarthy should all be starting on that team as they are unbelievable players with more skills then the rest of the team have all together. I strongly think some of the older players should call it a day as they are far past the best of their abilities. Robbie Keane whom I despise even though he has 53 goals for Ireland was a per usual terrible. Fair enough he got two goals in the match but his goals were the usual, a penalty he didn't win and a tap in after hard work from Jonathon Walters. That's a player who really contributed to the team in my view. It was his first competitive match for Ireland and not only did he score a great heading goal but he consistently worked hard for the team, used his weight and ability to his maximum capabilities. In this supporters eye's going to the Euro's is a great achievement but there's no point in going to have our asses smacked by the big bad teams in the competition like Spain, France, Holland or Italy.


Next President PLEASE!!


Italy's Silvio Berlusconi in everyone's opinion is an absolute moron. The man is a great salesman, ruthless politician and deluded leader. He has driven Italy to the brink of despair and now is the time for him to get out with the last pieces of credibility he has. The man speaks a lot about communism being terrible and never being acceptable but back in the day the man who despises communism so much now was very fond of quite a few communist men. In his view they were rich paying customers that would increase the bulge in his wallet. I never knew until today that the man even once owned the great AC Milan football club. Really in reality when do politicians ever own soccer teams, that's a joke really! Berlusconi always had a suntanned mask that never seemed to falter but at a press conference a couple of years back when pressed on some key issues he snapped and hissed at reporters "shame on you" and this showed the man could be quick tempered and ruthless when he needed to be. Now the reason Berlusconi is such a media sensation is for his "Bunga Bunga" parties. Don't know what they are? I'll gladly explain! Well they pretty much were brothels for the rich and famous, basically Mr.President himself called and paid for a lot of young, attractive women. You can make up your mind yourself what you think these young 'ladies' were intended for? Theirs also been inquiries into Berlusconi's love life as it has been said he slept with a young woman that was only 17 years old, frankly I believe that this is completely true as the man is nothing but a old pervert. The sooner Italy get rids of him the better for the country and the EU at that!!


X-factor Drama as per usual.....


X-factor can safely be called a massive JOKE this year. Not only is the drama this year so scripted it could be in Emmerdale or Coronation street. There's been walk outs, throw outs and huge (suppose-able) bust up's between the judges. A contestant by the name of Frankie Cocozza was thrown out for supposedly bragging about taking Cocaine and was caught on camera saying it. He was booted off the show it was claimed, but in another interview it was claimed he had walked from the show! The whole problem with this in my opinion is that Frankie was told to be a rock star and have the image and try play up the image to the max but when he actually did he was subsequently thrown out of the competition. The boy was only 18 and his whole world was built and then tore down by the "great" x-factor. I'm predicting that the x-factor has one season left, if not two at best and after that it will be thrown to the bin just like all the other major shows that faded out after 4 or 5 seasons. Rightly so as in my opinion its only a money making competition these days.
