What a hunt

We went to Reading on Saturday for the evening kick-off against Reading.

16 Seconds into the game, Big Petr Cech slid in and took the ball cleanly, and the Plastic Paddy Hunt, decided to knee-drop him on the head at full tilt. That's probably the end of Petr's season, and could possibly have further serious consequences. After a weekend of surgery for a fractured skull, everyone just hopes he gets better soon.

The situation wasn't helped by the worse than useless referee Mike Riley, made Cech crawl off the pitch for treatment. Why? He is a 'keeper, therefore play can't restart without him, so what is the point? That aside, making someone move with any head injury, let alone one as serious as this could be disastrous; But that is Mike Riley all over, a fucking disaster.

Carlo came on to replace him, and in the 90th minute of a mammoth 107 minute game, he was battered to the deck by another journeyman oaf, and knocked unconscious. He too ended up in the hospital, and John Terry played the rest of the game in goal.

One can only image the shock on Big Pete's face, when he woke up and realised Carlo was lying in the next bed to him...

So we face Barcelona this week without a goalkeeper. Hilario is the third choice, and is yet to play for us, fingers crossed the crowd get behind him this week.

As for the Plastic Paddy, you can pretend all you like that it was an accident, but every other player easily managed to jump over the 'keeper in those situation. So when it comes around, and you end up with your tibia wedged up your arsehole, just remember, the bloke who did it to you intended no malice......Dirty Hunt.
