I was hoping for a day out in the big smoke, perhaps joining up with the bagel (fresh from stuffing Southend/Barnsley at the lane the day before, no doubt) for celebratory beers all round afterwards... but those tight-arses in blue have crushed my dreams of a sightseeing trip to their stupid bridge (that's stamford, not wayne) as I'll never get a ticket now. Seems like yesterday we stuffed them 7-0 at the City Ground. And that was only 6 or 7 years ago. Can't say we've had the best run of form since then...

Hope you're not too offended - I have very much enjoyed catching up with your bready prose on the Spurs season so far this afternoon and am now suitably covered in crumbs - and keen to provide you and your faithful readers a quick leson in classical music if you will permit (nee indulge) me... "Dimitar Berbatov", as sung to the same tune as "It's a girl's hockey ground" by yourself, myself and your mate Charlie (aYt&t) @ MK dons earlier this season is based on the melody from La donna è mobile (Woman is Fickle) from Giuseppe Verdi's opera Rigoletto, penned in 1851. Check out the lyrics on Wikipedia and I'm sure we'll all agree that times haven't changed much 156 years... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/La_donna_%C3%A8_mobile but you do need to update the page and have a word with the Villa fans - Gabriel Agbonlahor?! Plus I believe Chelsea fans used to sing about Roberto Di Matteo to the same tune - but being 6 points off the pace, they're not singing anymore!
