Bad Weather and Terrible Trousers

First of all, here's wishing Howard Webb a nice break somewhere before the onset of the Premier League 2010-11. Amsterdam's a great place to chill out. Mind the coffee shop cookies though, Howie, too many of them and you can get a right bad persecution complex.

Which suggest that maybe the Orange boys had some laced biccies at half-time in Jo'burg. It's amazing how they're bleating on about how Webb cost them the game and yet he saved them from annihilation by keeping the midfield assault troops on the pitch. Just exactly how much of a twat do you need to be before you seriously start to blame Webb for the defeat?



Answer: This much of a twat.

But that's done with now. As is the British Grand Prix. Motor racing is just a repository of testosterone for men who think a sleek speed machine is akin to a priddy lady. From the pit-lane totty to the post-race prattle I find myself wanting to stick every sodding one of them into a Nissan Micra and push em down Sutton Bank.

Apart from Mark Webber, who is refusing to play the Barrichello with the toy-tossing pramster Vettel. I always picture Rubens toddling into the Ferrari garage for his first day and Schumacher striding over, sticking out his lantern jaw another couple of feet and muttering 'Gutten tag mofo. Velcome to Ferrari. You is my bitch now. I own your Goddam ass.' (Although somehow I can't see Ving Rhames playing Schumi).

Webber's 'Not bad for a number 2 driver' is definitely my quote of the sporting year. I hope he's wins the Championship. Yes very unpatriotic of me not to back the Brits. Erm, that'll be the pocket-lining, popstar-banging, tax-dodging Brits. Dunno what I've got against them.


Vettel: 'That's right you traitorous Aussie shit, your new car vill be made out of sand!'

But today sports fans turn their attention to that four day festival of bad weather and terrible trousers that is the Open Golf Championship.

I enjoy this sport despite myself. First of all the sport itself is just downright weird. Legend has it that it was originated by Scottish shepherds who couldn't farm the land that lay between their pasture and the sea. So they picked up their crooks and started tonking the odd ram's testicle up and down the dunes.

This may explain the origins of the name 'golf' - it may be an acronym for 'grizzled old lamb-fuckers'.

Advocates of the game will tell you lots of stuff about how superior it is to other sports. I heard Ian Carter on 5Live saying that it allows the spectator to get closer to the pros than in any other event. Garbage. Tour de France?

There's also this etiquette that demands utter decency from all the protagonists. Which is fair enough, except I know for a fact that I've tapped a ball or six round a course with some cheating little shysters in my time, by Christ.

Plus there are plenty of greats of the game who have spent their latter days pouring their time and effort into converting more perfectly decent stretches of the countryside into manicured playgrounds for appallingly moneyed tosspots to thwack about in. And though Jack Nicklaus will forever be hailed in golfing circles he apparently couldn't get to the Old Course this week cos there wasn't enough moolah being dangled beside his Golden Bear-faced cheeks.

And as we all know, golf clubs are great bastions of Mail-reading middle-class muppets who think a Pringle logo is the height of sartorial elegance. The success of Peter Alliss is simple: there's a Peter Alliss on the nineteenth hole of every course in this country, gin in hand, muttering lightly about this n that and getting grimmer and more ungenerous by the putt.

I'd forcibly retire the bloke meself, but he is as unfireable as a standard issue British Army revolver.

And yet despite all this I do enjoy your Open Golf. St. Andrews always throws up that magnificent Seve celebration on the 17th all them years ago - a kind of hugely indulgent hand shandy of a gesture.

And last year, when kindly old Tortoise Tom almost waddled off with the prize, was wonderful drama. Though Cink winning it was as anticlimactic as an inflatable woman with a puncture. I pray - ironically - that some God-fearing Yank doesn't lift the jug this year. When I hear a sportsman thanking God for his achievements, there's a bit of me that hears him saying 'Yep, that's right, He chose me and not you... LOSER!'

Plus I hope Tiger has a wretched tournament cos I for one don't buy this whole 'oo, I need a new putter claptrap'. I can't quite remember the name of his new blade but I think it's called summat like the Nike CashCow. Woods's main job this week will be to stay out of the bits of rough and those perilous man-traps that line the fairways.

And I hope the pre-tournament chutzpah regarding the inevitability of a British winner doesn't founder on the last nine holes as one by one the young guns wilt like a pack of witless... invertebrate... erm... for want of a better word... FOOTBALLERS.

So here goes - as my predictions are going relatively well at the mo.



I'm opting for one of these two camp young men, even if they do look like they've entered themselves for the Weetabix Women's Open in these outfits.

Poulter, in fact. If he can keep his gob shut. Although I fear the great galumpher that is Mickelson.

  5. Mickleson has good odds - 11/10 to be in the top ten!! - but his Open record is woeful.

    Always thought GOLF stood for Gents Only, Ladies Forbidden. You're right - not a bad sport but such a shame that it's generally sexist and etiquette abiding idiots that play it.

    This bit of your blog had me in stiches btw... ohhh, the Beeb don't know what they're missing!!

  6. Yep I know Mickelson's got a bad Open record but I just think if he puts his mind to it he can do it and he did describe St. A's as being 'real neat' which I think is high praise in Hicksville.

  38. You are probably using Windows 7 H2H.

    Which RBA neglected to mention that what he said wouldn't work in Windows 7. (There's a way around it but I'm too lazy to explain).

    RBA is still using DOS.

    Lucky bastard.

  39. RBA DOS's fullstop judging by the amount he posts on here and on his blog

    ReplyDelete
  40. Apparently on his first day in the international world of data duplication he discovered how to duplicate himself.

    It's that clone which does all his work and leaves him free to post.

    He forgot to put anti-piracy software in the clone though and as a result he's banging his wife!!!!

    Good to have you back mate.

    Did you enjoy India? and did you lose much weightb when you was there? I ask because a mate of mine went there as a real fat twat and came back as a slightly overweight twat, shame he gotta rid of the fattyness but kept the twattyness.

  51. Great pic Gaz,

    Hope those gals don't cover their eyes when they get frightened.

    ReplyDelete
  52. H2, I lost weight and all sense of reason at times. At least I'm aware of my limits. Those rages RBA talks about on his blog. I done a few of them like. Indians either look bemused or think smiling and staring en masse will sort it all out.

    ReplyDelete
  53. I would also like to qualify that by saying that it was amazing. Does anyone else think that if there's a crisis occurring, they'd like to see a Sikh nearby? They have an aura of being in the know, and look like they should be able to sort it all out with aplomb.

  58. The club has recently released several of its higher paid players in a bid to balance the books, but now has only nine registered players available to play in the Football League.

    The Blues are currently under a transfer embargo but the Professional Footballers Association has told BBC Essex that if the club can produce evidence to the Football League that they are dealing with their financial problems, they could be given special dispensation to register players.

    --------------

    How is it fair that Portsmouth can sign players while in administration and Southend can't and Bournemouth were stopped from doing so last season.

  66. As long as they haven't signed Mel Gibson (WW's body double) then I think everything should stay normal south of Hadrians Wall.

    Welcome back TommyB.

    I love golf me. I love playing and I love watching, especially this current crop on the US LPGA, some crackers in there.

    I'm upset that Seve isn't there. We need more Spanish non-footy heroes encouraging their youth away from the game. Rafa Nadal is doing his part and there's a good few turning to bull fighting. You know how many thousand bull fighting coaches they have in Spain? No wonder England is falling behind.

  70. STILL going on about those Dutch meanies, Robbo? crimeny - isn't 3 times unlucky in the Final punishment enough without the likes of you piling on?
    OK, Webb wasn't the worst ever, but he did screw them on some key decisions, however much you want to be look only at the De Jong challenge like the rest of the Spanish Armada (Armada means bandwagon, by the way;)
    Spain won, so enjoy your Cava and Shuh-Tit!

    i cant believe the indifference on here to the sport we actually excel at beyond all others. england is shit at football but fucking ace at cycling.

    AND its a sport with use. can you use a football to get you to the offie?

    no. unless you are a clown from the cirque du soleil.

    have you ever tried to get to work playing golf?

    no. not a great way of getting around is it, golf? slow, frustrating and i find the tiny holes in angry motorists windscreens tend to preclude it as a mode of transport, in my experience.

    comapre and contrast my one-man work-bound peloton.

    having said that i am a bit bored with the tour de france. on the other hand again its one of the worlds great sporting events, instituted in support of Dreyfus, the 19th C persecuted french Jew, not richard dreyfus the shit american actor.

    i will one day dress up as Osama bin Laden and stand by the roadside as the Frances de la Tour's peloton passes, pointing and shouting "YOUR BACK WHEELS GOING ROUND"

    Did I mention I love golf? Just watching the slow motion replay DVD of Paula Creamer's putting stroke. Takes three hours to analyze one putt. I'll watch it again later.

  102. and Robbo, forget manboobs Mickleson, he hits it too high and yaps too much. You're dead right about Tiger's putter though. It's called 'the method' - lets hope he finds some Smogger Rhythm and uses it to stay out of trouble.

  107. trot do you agree with the concensus on here that england were unlucky not to win the WC and were robbed by some diabolical referreeing decisions?

    ReplyDelete
  108. for me theres one crucial missing element that golf sufferes from - physical violence.

    ReplyDelete
  109. shearer as next england coach?

    ReplyDelete
  110. England were totally robbed, there should be a hanging or two. Obviously we were better than Switzerland and they beat Spain so if the Spaniards had any class, they'd give us the trophy.

    I was on the golf course once when a bloke swung his driver in anger after a crappy tee shot. Just as he swung, the next guy to hit was walking onto the tee, head down, he got caught flush in the face. Cheek bone, eye socket and nose all smashed. The ambulance made a terrible mess of the fairway.

    Saw two other lads get into a fight and I've seen lots of trees attacked with clubs. Always good for a laugh.

  112. none of that is strictly part of the game, tho, trott (is it? how wud i no)

    hey you wont believe this but ive got a literary agent interested in mandraxe and the nazi werewolves from mars.

    ReplyDelete
  115. no, what happened? Where do I read it?

    ReplyDelete
  116. a real live literary agent? Brilliant. You didn't write much, just enough to secure a 4 million pound advance I reckon.

    ReplyDelete
  117. never mind the millions though, is she fit?

    AOL News (July 15) – A combination of booze and scorching weather has led to more than 1,000 Russians drowning in recent months.

    Russians are heading to lakes and rivers in droves to escape temperatures as high as 104 degrees Fahrenheit, CNN reported. Unfortunately, they usually do so with some beer or vodka in tow.

    The results are darkly predictable.

    Russian men swim in the Neva river in central St. Petersburg on July 6
    Over 1,000 drownings in Russia have been attributed to people trying to cool off in searing temperatures by swimming after consuming alcohol. Here, Russian men take a dip in the Neva river in central St. Petersburg on July 6.
    "The majority of those drowned were drunk," Vadim Seryogin of Russia's Emergencies Ministry said, according to CNN. "The children died because adults simply did not look after them."

    At one summer camp, six schoolchildren drowned because the camp employees who were meant to be looking after them were drunk, the BBC said.

    Alcohol is a way of life in Russia, with the average Russian consuming 18 liters (18 quarts) of booze a year. That's more than twice the level that the World Health Organization rates as safe. About 70 percent of the alcohol is consumed as hard liquor such as vodka.

  120. (the fench dont have a word for insouciant)

    G W Bush was correct - no not about farting - but about the fact that the frenchies dont have a word for Entreprenuer - in their world it has a different context - now who feels daft eh???

  122. Im fine Big Trott mate - clough info

    Hey just read Cloughy went to same school as me - well he would he was brought up round corner from me - but he was older

    ReplyDelete
  123. No Irish women are scarey! You just have to know how to treat em.

    Usually with Ronseal.


    And as for not being able to get to work with golf!!??


    ALL the world's great business deals are done on the golf course. I bet even you could hire a hitman on a golf course. To kill John Terry. For free more than likely.

    ReplyDelete
  124. yes gaz, but you cant use golf as a form of transportation, was my point. except for golf buggies.

    ReplyDelete
  125. Gaz, wassup, how's the Mrs progressing? What's happened with Bo?

    ReplyDelete
  126. all irish women are scarey they have piercing goggle-eyed stares, farm-developed biceps and withering put-downs for poor performance in bed. so im told.

    ReplyDelete
  127. Mrs is fine Trotts. 17th week now.


    Bo fell out with me. Dunno why really. Said I was full of hate and he wasn't coming back.

    Think it was something to do with all the insisting that England were utter shite.

    Which they were.

    And still are.

    But they're 7th

    ReplyDelete
  128. its better than coronation street on here aint it?

    ReplyDelete
  129. I wouldn't know about the withering put-downs.

    The rest seems about right.

  130. Good, tell her to put her feet up and get yerself busy.

    ohhh, it was something important then? Shame that, us all getting worked up over something so irrelevant.

    ReplyDelete
  131. So finally after all this time Bloggggy has revealed himself to actually be Lord Dave.

    No wonder he's been suspiciously quiet since entering Number 10, he's too busy on here.

    Can you get Nicky the slave to makes us some tea

    ReplyDelete
  132. Bloggggy. Sorry I mean Dave. What's all this about being good at cycling? Who was the last Brit to win the Tour de Farce?

    I'll think you'll find an Irishman did it more recently. Which just keeps proving our superiority. Not that I care about nationalism or anything.

    ReplyDelete
  133. I say, Gaz, you outed me at larst. Normally I prefer my constituents not to know that I support Port Vale and talk shit. Doncha know.

    Nicky ! Get the fookin teas in ye wee cunt!

    ReplyDelete
  134. Who was the last Brit to win the Tour de Farce?

    ------

    Winning the whole thing would be vulgar, Gaz. I've tried to ensure with my recent policy review that we're excellent in parts like the curates egg. I have phoned Cav to recognise his win in the Tour de France TODAY but expressed my concern that any further progress towards the green jersey would be un-English.

    Nicky! I say get the beers in you twat.

    (note to gaz ; who's Nicky???)

    Was in that debate thingy

    Think he's married to a foreign bird

    Likes the poor people

    ReplyDelete
  137. I suppose the Tour de Farce does take place in a foreign country.

    And France no less. Which is just not cricket.

    That's why England have refused to win the World Cup for all these years.

    Must wait till it gets back to Blighty eh?

    ReplyDelete
  138. Ah you mean Cocksucking Fig-Leaf Stoogefag!

    ReplyDelete
  139. I am determined to address the policy isues you identify, Gaz.

    The post-colonial disengagement with Europe and all things foreign is to be addressed and reversed in my forthcoming policy document "The Wogs begin in Calais"

    in a long-overdue move to right a historical wrong, the USA is re-claimed for the Crown and to satisfy the demands of Home Rule, Ireland is re-classified as a Home County, ruled directly from my Gazebo.

    Hope this clarifies matters, old chap.

    Dave.

    ReplyDelete
  140. Yes. Thank you.

    Which one of the home counties will we be?

    As long as you don't put us under the same umbrella as Birmingham then all will be ok.

    Good call on the FFL, the head to head league should just be for the regulars, we'll have to get in touch with Jacks (RBA get him on your Ouija/weegey Board) to sort it out, he is the keymaster and has the power to turf out the riff raff.

    ReplyDelete
  146. Hey people! Nice to see a lot of traffic on blog from yesterday. And also wonderful to know that there's been India chat in afternoon.

    But honestly with no offence meant to Sikh's they are often considered as joke items. (Sardar/tubelight/late current) all mean the same.

    ReplyDelete
  147. Spit, I was a bit surprised to see Pakistan/Australia test series bein played in England.

    Again, after England beat Aussies in ODI series, I thought it would have been perfect summer to straight away begin with the Ashes.

  149. Not seen many lurkers on here;
    So far, 17 in robbo FFL League & 14 is robbo FFL head2head league. Atleast manageable this time, unlike what we had last season end.

  150. Morning Zeb mate! Are you joined in the league yet?

  151. Not as yet as I have to do that from home and I never get a look in (or the time) on the computer there.

  153. The ball used in the World Cup final between the Netherlands and Spain has sparked a bidding frenzy on eBay. By Thursday night the price had soared from £99 to £52,100, with the auction ending at 1700 BST on Friday. (the Sun)

    ----------------------------------

    I wouldn't have paid 99p for that piece of crap, let alone bid enough to buy myself a Porsche Boxter instead.

    Not that I would buy a Porsche ... their cars are shit.

  154. Burnley winger Chris Eagles has rejected the chance to join Scottish champions Rangers.

    The clubs agreed a transfer fee for the 24-year-old but the player was unable to agree personal terms with the debt-plagued Glasgow outfit.

    Fuck me, Dredge just putted off the path through the rough, hit the pin and ended up 20 feet away. That was after landing over the road on th 17th.

    ReplyDelete
  165. Yes.

    Peter Allis did it.

    But he blamed it on one of those dark skinned fellows.

    ReplyDelete
  166. i thought the "darkies" as colin montgommery called them, were banished now that a half vietnamess half black had scientifically proven that they were up to no good in the first place, and should bever be allowed back on the greens again...?

    It's difficult to keep food down though as Hazel Irvine has just appeared on the tellyvisiual thingy.

    Indeed, traitors!!!

    There should be a law that the only other sports you can follow are ones that you can do on the way to watch footy, i.e pool, snooker darts, drinking etc or ones you do on the way back like swimming (if you drunk to much?). In the late 70's till the mid 80's it was perfectly acceptable to follow fight/contact sports, but nowadays a stadium ban awaits those that participate.

    Over 25 minutes I should be able to feel my legs.

  180. Listen! The golf is on TV for something like over 10 hours today. As a student it is the law that I lie on the couch and watch it.

    I would never break the law.

    ReplyDelete
  181. 10 hours of golf?

    You can watch paint dry in a lot less time then that.

    ReplyDelete
  182. Aha yes but as a student you are required to sniff the paint fumes instead.

  183. That's gotta be more fun then golf?
