THE RICHEST GAME IN FOOTBALL







Today Blackpool take on West Ham in what’s is billed as the richest game in the world . With a place in the Prem at stake . For me my loyalty's are split between the two sides . I always want as many Northern teams in the Prem as possible . What with Blackpool having brought so many goals and crazy games to the league a season ago , it would be great to see them get back there . Also with Ian Holloway’s mad cap interviews pepping up MOTD to boot . There supporters have been brilliant as well . Living in a party town like Blackpool must give you unique skills.

Then there is West Ham . I have always said if I was born in London West Ham would be my team . They seem to be the only true London team (Bobby Moore, Hurst, Peters ) Alf Garnet and of course Ray Winstone . I think every ones perfect drinking partner to chat about footie and life would be Ray .(especially if Jamie was there as well ) no offence Ray . Every West ham supporter I have known has been a sound person proper Cockney's. But as I wrote in an earlier blog I think it would be wrong for them to move to that Olympic Stadium ….........Upton Park is West Ham ,West Ham is Upton Park . Fuck moving to a corporate SOUL LESS HOLE …..


My Biggest wish , that today’s game would have been Southampton v Reading . Then I would of not bothered watching, let alone writing about it . So at times like this you wish both teams luck hope for a cracking game . The losers will have a bit of extra cash . Spend wisely then it will be the Prem for you next time . Good luck.........

SO IT WILL BE RAY WINSTONE AND CO GETTING PISSED TONIGHT . UNLUCKY BLACKPOOL
