As a culture, we’re obsessed with look. I blame teen magazines for perpetuating the myth that skinniness equals beauty. If I had to pick among a thin lady and a lady with a fuller figure, I’d select the a single with the better temperament. Clearly, if they’re equally pleasant, then fatty’s out of luck.
Males are far much less uptight about how they search. Petr Cech was satisfied to return to work when half of his deal with was hanging off he wasn’t worried that he looked like Steve Bruce’s greater looking brother.
Cech was back again between the sticks inside of no time, as he managed to borrow the required safety from Ashley Cole. Not numerous people individual chin guards, but Cashley is always wary of bouncing balls. I’ll be jumping up and down when Everton defeat Chelsea at 14/five.
Juande Ramos believes that his players ought to consider pride in their appearance, and has banned cakes and sweets from the canteen. I concur with Juande on this one I’ll only consider a muffin the moment a year. If Wigan get their head down against Tottenham, they can consider a level at five/2.
Gareth Southgate is far more peaceful with his players’ diet. In Mido and Alves, he has the fattest pair up entrance considering that a heavily pregnant Jordan. Bolton are about as pleasing to the eye as Peter Andre’s usually visited companion a relatively desirable Boro will overpower them at eleven/10.
Thaksin Shinawatra is taking a real gamble in contemplating Phil Scolari as a long run coach. Large Phil once punched an annoying player at the finish of a match there’s a genuine probability that he might elevate a fist to Ashley Cole. Pompey haven’t won away at Manchester City considering that 1963, I am heading in deep on Sven’s men at eleven/8 to acquire revenge for becoming tucked up on the Benjani deal.
Steven Gerrard has suffered panic attacks at any time since a gangster threatened to break his legs he now collapses without warning roughly every thirty minutes. The precipitating midfielder and his pals have lost on their last two trips to the Cottage latest circumstances dictate that we back again Fulham at 3/1.
Arsenal’s season can be in comparison to putting your hand up Lily Allen’s blouse: it is been fascinating, but the finish end result is a disappointment. It wouldn’t surprise me if the Gunners laid a marker for up coming period by pounding Reading at four/11.
Paul Jewell’s transfer to Derby is formally the biggest error since I fell for the ‘I’m on the pill’ line. Right after a 6 target humiliation at residence to Aston Villa, the Rams travel to West Ham to confront a side who defeat them five- at ‘Pride’ Park. Derby have two hopes in this 1, Bob Hope and no hope and Bob Hope’s lifeless. The Hammers are the weekend banker at 2/five.Several folks believe that Mark Hughes will be the subsequent manager of Manchester United. I am not confident if Hughes is prepared to do well Sir Alex just however, he needs to function on his referee-haranguing. I’d contemplate supplying the placement to Fergie’s son he would shortly knock them into shape. United will pile in to Blackburn at 8/13.
I was shocked to get an electronic mail suggesting that I was out of line for calling Karen Brady unattractive. I guess the previous adage is accurate: one particular man’s meat is yet another man’s poison, unless of course you’re Ashley Cole. Aston Villa are one particular win away from their second straight double above the Brady bunch, and they’re assured a aim begin if Ridgewell plays. I’ve noticed worse bets than the five/6 for a Villa win I tipped them up last week.
If Freddie Shepherd is to be believed, and why wouldn’t he, the women of Newcastle are not the greatest searching breed. No surprise Jimmy Nail, Paul Gascoigne and Peter Beardsley left the region. It could get actual ugly when the Toon Army host Sunderland I’ll aspect with Newcastle at five/six.
If, like me, your companion is much less than satisfying aesthetically, come to feel totally free to use my adage to aid them feel a tiny bit greater about themselves. ‘Beauty fades, but a sound ironing strategy will very last forever’. I’m not certain how lengthy the thirteen/one will very last about this week’s accer: Arsenal, West Ham, Aston Villa, Newcastle and Manchester City are the really spectacular choices.
