Go the gunners
This evening I went to a local Pub to watch the UEFA cup final between my team Arsenal and Barcelona. Once again the atmosphere was great but this time I was a little more with it. I shared a table with Brian the accountant from Aberdeen who was hoping that Barcelona would shred Arsenal.
We disucssed the World Cup and football generally though I contributed little to the discussion. I asked where Scottish loyalties might lie seeing they are not in the finals, jokingly suggesting that they might support England. The response was both understandable and predeictable.
I won't go into the details of the game as there is plenty of that out there except to say that Arsenal went down after a gallant effort being one man down for most of the game. Dissapointed but not dejected.

Yes, in Germany for the cup with tickets to all threwe Australian group matches but not the finals...
Eurovision is the talk on the radio today. Though the Brits generally don't take it as seriously as the Europeans. In the words on of one radio announcer when he was told that the Scottish song probably wouldn't win, "Just as well really, otherwise the contest would be coming to Edinburgh."
