PlayerPocketCam

Hey you've heard of PlayerCam, right. The nifty little waste of time introduced by Sky Sports many moons ago, that lets you follow footballers round the pitch as they stand around picking bits of turf off the heels of their boots, or spit balls of flem at rival supporters while camped out in the opponents half waiting for their team mates to hoof long balls up to them?

Well, this is PlayerPocketCam exclusive to levers.tripod.com on this midweek Premiership fixture night. With live feeds from the insides of players pockets up and down the country.

Keep watching to the left of the browser window to see live pictures from inside Robbie Savage's pocket as he attempts to gouge out Rio Ferdinand's eyeballs.

Ain't modern technology marvellous!

Scrubs is a dirty little whore!
Scrubs, the US quirky comedy series with a 'sensitive' side, is nothing but a dirty little slut, whoring itself out to as many British television channels as possible. Rest assured, that in any given week, you're likely to be able to catch Scrubs on any if not all of the following channels.
C4, E4, E4 +1, SKY ONE. SKY TWO. abc1, S4C, and was that a Scrubs marathon I saw on Paramount Comedy Channel over christmas? I think it was. Good as it is, does it really deserve so much airtime. After all, it ain't no Arrested Development, now is it?

This is something that has bothered me for some time.

Of course at the time of submission, it just so happens that Scrubs isn't on any channel anywhere thus leading to the suspicion the author of this article had infact envisioned this phenomena several months earlier, and was only submitting such a piece now because he was otherwise short of things to post.

Arsenal v Wigan - Some Explanation
Topic: Football
Ahh yes. I feel a little explanation may be in order. What follows is what could be described as a 'failed' attempt to provide a live match commentary service of the games between Arsenal and Wigan, in the Carling Cup Second Leg.

Normally, we wouldn't be particularly bothered about such a 'lowly' competition, but as things haven't exactly been going to plan this season (we're currently placed fifth in the Premiership, behind Spurs), the league cup has suddenly gone up in our estimation.

So of course, we go and bloody lose it, in the dying minutes of extra time, thanks to the away goals rule (mugged would be appropriate. This is despite some mouthy tosser sat behind me, insisting that "away goals don't count in extra time".

To add insult to injury, Arsenal tube station was also shut, which meant I had to bomb it to Highbury and Islington, and then negotiate my way across London to 'our kids' in Queen's Park.

As you'll see, my attempts to rival the BBC Football website ended in tears, as at no point did I manage to report on anything actually happening in the match itself.

As is the nature of the blog, to actually make any sense of what's going on (if thaet's possible), posts of the match have to be read in reverse order, therefore starting from the bottom up.

Look al that. They're all running in straight lines,up down the pitch. How terribly exciting. If we're lucky, we might yet see them kick a ball!
