The live Champions League draw @ 12:00 today gave us an all English clash between Liverpool and Arsenal.

Whilst trawling the Forums over @ the Liverpool Echo, came across this post where the exact draw was predicted @ 10:28 am this morning claiming that the draw was already done and dusted?

Replies to this post also claim that they were unable to place a bet on the result on the draw today, bookmakers not giving any reasons why.

Something smells, gonna check to see if they have the Gold Cup winner on there as well.

UPDATED: Article pulling together reaction and further details now up on the Liverpool Daily Post Site

Today marks the first anniversary of the takeover of Liverpool FC by George Gillett and Tom Hicks.. Liverpool Echo’s Tony Barrett examines the impact the American duo have had on the club over the past 12 months.

Great piece in the Liverpool Echo today, part 2 tomorrow 7th Feb.

Will Hicks and Gillette see sense and do one? I guess they will, if the price is right.

Kevin Keegan takes over the managerial role at Newcastle United (again!).

I wish him all the luck in the world, but has Keggy lost his marbles? Time will tell.
It’s a funny old game.

Skysports News report a flood of calls and txts from people saying they are going to call their new borns ‘Kevin Keegan…” I hope not, there is only one Kevin Keegan Milton, and that’s my brother :O)

Emphatic win for Liverpool @ Anfield capped by a hat trick from Steven Gerrard. Great performance from Jermaine Pennant as well by all accounts, same goes for Ryan Babel.

Eamon in Hawaii

This is our old office gnome Eamon. He has been living in Cardiff for the last 12 mths. We were hoping he might come home for Christmas, but looks like he has a better offer.

Can’t believe the taffs havn’t changed the plaster on his nose (he fell of the swing in our back garden) must be infected somewhat. He not bothered though, he is a bit of a thug.

Coming soon, the Adventures of Eamon Gnomes, from the brink of death after a messy e-bay incident, to world traveller, sailor and lover of fine dolls.

Last Friday (12th October 2007) saw the last day of the Birmingham based IT service desk at my place of job. A sad day indeed as I was one of the first members of the Birmingham service desk back in 2004, some damn fine people have now left the company, and will be sadly missed.

But of course with every leaving there comes an evening out with the booze and the grub, and Friday was no different. A swift few @ the Old Joint Stock on Temple Row in Birmingham City centre, followed by a meal at Chez Jules French bistro thingy and a nice bottle vin rouge. Rounded the evening off with a pint at the Wetherspoons by the Central Library and a mighty tug on a blunt (made the bus trip back interesting)

So here’s some pics: CLICKY

Good luck to you all in the future. Have Fun! – Nx
