What a week!!!

Wow, what a week!!!! Chelsea wins Champions League on penalties, West Ham get promoted, Mrs F and I, with our mini, do the London to Brighton Mini Run!!  Crickey!

So, Chelsea have won the Champions League, and did it in style!! Bayern put up a hell of a fight to the bitter end. Mrs F and I were freezing our butts off camping in Crystal Palace park (where London 2 Brighton starts). We found this guy sitting outside his tent next to his classic mini, with a radio listening to the game.  We grabbed our beers and chairs and asked him if we could sit and listen.  He was happy for the company and by the time it came to penalties there were about 20 people standing and listening!! It was great. The commentator was going on about how the German teams have never lose in Germany to penalties.... Ha! Guess he was eating crow pie all evening... :o) Bayern looked to win it, but Chelsea turned it around, and I for one was very pleased!! Means the Spuds aren't in the Champions League next season and that's fine with me!!

The Hammers have been promoted back to the Premiership! With the 2-1 win over Blackpool, it secured their spot... I know alot of Hammers were celebrating!! I'm glad their back, I missed going to see games with a couple of Hammer fans when the Gunners played them. I think it's too bad that some of the Hammers fans are still calling for Big Sam's head on a proverbial platter... I guess it's not enough that he got them back in the Premiership?  It because he's not having the players play the West ham way... Who cares if you're winning games and moving up a league?  Crickey, let's hope for their sakes they keep playing Big Sam's way, we might have some competition at the top!!

Our mini club- Mini Freakz of Sussex all joined in convoy to go up to Crystal Palace and camp overnite for the run in the morning... It was freezing, but kept ourselves occupied riding free bumper cars til 9pm!! Then sat around talking shit and yelling 'Buttscratcher!!!'  'Timmy' and 'Potatoes' til the early hours of the morning!! We all had a fantastic time and are going to feature in Mini World!!

Soooo........ Still no word on Mr. Robin Van Persie? Don't panic peeps, I'm feeling confident. Arsenal are watching Capoue, Toulouse midfielder as a maybe alternative to M'Vila.  Capoue would cost about half of the £22 million that Rennes want for M'Vila. Milan and Atletico Madrid are also interested in  Capoue, which could make the price go up. Man city are interested in M'Vila and so talks for transfer have stalled.  But, hey, at least Wenger is out there looking like he means to buy some players, which will help keep RVP in an Arsenal shirt!!!

Till next time sports fans!!
Take care and use sunblock!!! (now that summer has finally gotten here!!!)
