Beer Fund Raising : 01 - 03 Dec 2007

What a big disruption the Euro2008 qualifiers have turned out to be as the every British team sank like the HMS Sheffield during the Falkland War. To make matters, all the international players returned exhausted only to be taken advantage by lesser teams with little or no players on international duty.

Some thing is not right here as far as fairness to these clubs is concerned. I can fully understand the standoff between club managers and the manager of the national team. Allardyce had every right to be mad at McClaren for risking Michael Owen during last week's meaningless friendly against Austria. So now the striker is injured again after only just recovered from the horrific injury back during the 2006 World Cup in front of millions of people whom had witnessed it on their tellys. Sure the FA will compensate the club for the period of time that Owen will remain injured but that doesn't solve the problem that Newcastle is now one striker short right?

The way I see it, the EPL need to reduce in size to 18 clubs like that of Serie A. The clubs as far as I am concerned, play too many games. Bad for the player's health for after all, they are human. Heck, even machines need to have regular downtime too.

Anyway, Roy Keane got stuck at 10 points in the WPI and they are hosting cellar dwellers Derby County today. Very very likely a full 3 points to the Black Cats and a positive result will leave them a mere 3 points to break McCarthy's embarrassing record.

Perhaps thereafter, I will extend the WPI to WPI 2.0 where the target shall then be put at 40 points i.e. the door to Premiership survival.
