=)
1st FA Cup win over MU in 85 years but it was well-deserved..Crouch expertly crouching (excuse the pun) to head Finnan's cross in off both posts..it was the 2nd Liverpool-ManU match in a month and the difference this time was, the better team won. Gary Neville was inevitably booed and jeered at everytime he touched the ball thanks to his "celebration" at Old Trafford the last time and some jerk even threw a half-eaten burger at him when he went to the side-lines to take a throw-in. Kewell and Riise dominated the left flank in the 1st half and played well throughout. Hamann was my man-of-the-match though, effective in midfield breaking up the mancs' play the whole 90 minutes in the absence of Alonso..went to mamak with Log to watch the match, caught up a bit with each other..
Late in the match, the Reds got a free-kick about 40-yards from goal and as Riise lined up to smash the ball, Smith rushed out to block his shot, landing awkwardly on the ground..the medics were called on and he had to wear an oxygen mask and van Nistelrooy even turned away with a constipated look on his face...turned out he broke his leg and dislocated his ankle..whoa, i knew Riise's left shot is packed with a punch but i didn't know it could be that chun..ahah..Smith's world cup hopes are seemingly now over...erm, my sincere condolences goes out to him..though honestly i don't think he would make it into the england 1st 11 anyway..
read this in the star today..about the crooked or "scenic" bridge Malaysia was going to go ahead and build connecting to the existing causeway..a stupid waste of money all thanks to our neighbour's reluctance in building a proper bridge across the Tebrau Straits to replace the ancient causeway.
First of all, the causeway is not big enough to accomodate the increasing amount of traffic between the 2 countries daily. Other than that, the causeway is NOT A BRIDGE, meaning it's just a highway across the sea on a stretch of land man-made by filling rocks and concrete. In other words, the sea water in the straits is stagnant which means we get to see all that floating rubbish thrown into the sea by the typical Malaysian and visiting Singaporean.
It seems that Singapore will only build their half of the bridge if we agree to their blasphemous request for sand and our airspace.
Do they think we're bloody idiots?!?!
GIVE YOU OUR AIRSPACE?!?!?
They must be bloody idiots to think that we would be bloody idiotic enough to agree to that.
As my dad said, the islanders want a bargain for everything..but this isn't a fair trade-off, it's a bloody rip-off!! Do they actually think we're THAT STUPID?!!?
Here's what the Johor Baru MP said:
“It’s like saying, okay, we’ll cooperate to build a garden fence between our homes but you have to let me use your toilet and allow me to park my car in your driveway.”
bloody idiots.
