Well we wuz robbed. Yes we gave Manchester United a lesson in football and ended up losing 2-1. I guess that's why they are one of the top teams in the country. Norwich matched them in virtually every department but they still won.
Mind you I can't see them winning the title if they continue to adopt negative tactics. They have some of the best players in the world but sat back on an early goal and only came into their own as an attacking force when we equalised. I wonder what the score would have been if they had continued to attack after going 1-0 up. On this form I really can't see them winning the title. Norwich once again proved that we can live with the best and the fact we are eighth in the Premier Division is certainly no fluke.
Yesterday I talked about my obsession for writing. You may have gathered that I have two other obsessions as well - football and music. I write about both quite a lot!
So yesterday I came home from the Norwich v Manchester United game and watched highlights of the Arsenal v Spurs match and then the Carling Cup final between Cardiff and Liverpool. Followed that with Athletico Madrid v Barcelona and then rounded the evening off with Match of the Day Highlights.
In between that lot I watched an interview with Michael Stipe on Sky Arts. It was a gentle affair with Jo Whiley asking nice undemanding questions. You got the idea that Mr Stipe would have ignored any difficult questions anyway. He came over as a slightly wacky, mixed-up guy with decided views on certain subjects and somebody still coming to terms with the part he plays on the planet. I have always enjoyed REM's music without being a great fan although two of their albums - Automatic for the People and Out of Time - are minor modern classics. Towards the end of their very long career they seemed to lose their way and be of very little interest.
Tonight we have the quarterly meeting of the Hethersett and Meltons Sports Association which I set up exactly one year ago. During that time it has gone through a number of transitions as it seeks to find a level of supporting sport, recreation, fitness, well being and the environment. I think the association has a very valuable future and will write some more about it tomorrow.
