Fair play to you, you're in good spirits for having a cold.

Tis only a cold and todays game was not fogged off and I have some really nice Tesco finest strawberry cheesecake and we won and I get from Germany and got to the Arsenal game and some g/f related stuff I won't talk about here.

I remember reading a few years ago about someone putting a huge amount of money on a "dead cert", the odds were something stupid like 10-1 on. The amount was tens of thousands, it was a rugby game. Obviously you get your stake back plus a small amount of winnings if the "dead cert" comes off. I heard people do this quite often, generally earning money slightly better than they'd get from a building society.

Except it didn't come off - so instead of slightly increasing his money he was skint. There's no such thing in life as a "dead cert", just a lot of things that are close to that.

Jose Mourinho's arrogance will slowly but surely be his undoing. This semi final is one of the possible places it will happen - it all depends on how arrogant he is about this and how much he assumes it's a foregone conclusion. Here's hoping...
