Given that I've never known you post anything remotely positive about the club,team, or the players. This comes as no surprise.Maybe, it's like when you finish with your girlfriend and you have that empty feeling inside you - That feeling, that you think will never ever go away, but one day, it suddenly does. At this moment in time, although nothing has much has changed, my optimism about the upcoming season is just not there !
Yes, we all knew 'our bird' was getting the eye from that 'fella' down the road - yanno, the loaded one with all the flashy clothes, cars and that big house in Cheshire and that one day, she'd succumb to his advances. But, we've got a new girl now, some Spanish lass with a nice big smile and who smells quite nice ! But she's not quite up to the mark of our last one , but I dunno..given time , she may turn out to be ?!
From the horrendously embarrassing pantomime over the badge, new kit and the merchandise catalogues , that has nothing in it you want to buy 'cos it has THAT badge on all the stuff and those yelow stripes ! To the on going media tug -o-war fabrication of Leighton Baines going to Manchester United, whilst Moyes was technically still our manager..all whilst Baines was at Glastonbury doing his best Bradley Wiggins impression ! Being linked with THREE Wigan players , who will be squad men at best..Its nothing to really get your juices pumping now ,is it ?!! We even got linked with Rooney, who at 26 is prime for the picking but at £250,000 a week and his personal baggage, is totally out of price range and would be more of a burden than an asset.
We are told we are not a selling club - but all we've heard is that to move forward, we need to sell..Fellaini, Baines, Heitinga..even Jelavic , who was found out big time last season, are all in the shop window. We also have six full time squad members over the age of 30, who need replacing/ back -up. With all this, we really need to do some moving and shaking in the transfer / loan market, whether we like it or not.
Maybe we could look to our younger players to come through ? ..well there's Ross Barkley.. who was so underutilized by Moyes, how he got onto the England radar, is beyond me ! Their scouting system must spend countless hours attending freezing cold reserve matches across this nation, amongst the other 78 people in attendance .
I know we're skint and it frustrates me, when other teams, one of whome is 'very close by' are splashed across the tabloids for all the wrong reasons, be it for their players conduct or their mismanagement of funds are then green lit to redevelop their ground ( when it still looks brand new) and move freely in the transfer market. Year in year out, we cry out for investment, we struggle but eventually conquer and finish the year as 'the best of the rest' only a few marquee signings away from making that transition into the Sky SIX boys club..How are we overlooked year in year out ?..yet West Ham can almost get relegated and still move into the Olympic stadium !!!
In Martinez we Trust ?.. I'd like to think so, but like Oddball said in Kelly's Heroes.." You've gotta stop with them negative waves "...Sadly,I just can't pull myself together enough to do it, right now

The average person walks 75,000 miles in a lifetime, or five times round the world
[h=2]BUNIONETTES[/h]They are less well known than bunions, but surprisingly one in five of us develops bunionettes —bumps on the outside of the foot where the little toe meets the long toe bones of the foot.
The condition was once called tailor’s bunions — as they worked cross-legged, the outside edge of their feet pressed into the ground, causing a pressure point.
Like bunions, bunionettes are genetic, but can be made worse by tight high heels.
Keyhole techniques for bunionettes have been available for just a few years.
Here, the surgeon makes a 3mm to 4mm incision on top of the foot and drills away the bump with a fine drill burr, squeezing the shavings out through the incision.
As the incision is so tiny, patients need only a small plaster.
‘This has transformed practice,’ says David Redfern.
‘Patients can wear normal footwear within a few days and go back to work immediately.’
This is available at Sussex Foot and Ankle Centre, London Foot and Ankle Centre and Sussex Orthopaedic NHS Treatment Centre, Haywards Heath.
morton’s neuroma
This excruciating condition occurs when a nerve gets trapped between the bones of the foot, resulting in pain on the ball of the foot and at the base of the toes.
More than a million Britons are affected: high heels and hormonal changes, such as the menopause, can exacerbate the problem.
Treatments include supports worn inside the shoe and injections of steroid, alcohol and liquid nitrogen into the nerve.
But if these don’t work, it’s possible to have a 15-minute operation, where surgeons remove a fingernail-sized portion of the nerve.
Studies show it’s effective in 80 per cent of cases.
‘Patients who have suffered years of excruciating pain can find the problem has gone for good,’ says Mike O’Neill, podiatrist and spokesman for the College of Podiatry.
‘But in 20 per cent of cases, the nerve stump can regrow, so it has to be done again.’
There’s also cryosurgery, where the surgeon treats the thickened nerve using a freezing probe cooled to minus 70c under a local anaesthetic.
This is available privately at the London Podiatry Centre and the Barn Clinic in Sheffield.

He's much more Giovanni Dos Santos.
