Like funeral clothes discarded
This crimson red misery
Stained with tears and fears of a faltering hope.
Eleven atheletes in disarray
Pacing up and down, back and forth

To patch together a win
Perhaps a point.
Red-faced over one who has ears only
For Gallic style and ideals
For the beautiful game
That the feet and hearts of boys
From many nations

		<description><![CDATA[In keeping with a tradition of an annual prediction of the English Premier League, I have reluctantly decided to post something here. It&#8217;s been agony to see Arsenal&#8217;s best players sold to competing teams and to see them replaced by veterans who may have already played their best several seasons ago. Doing this prediction thing [...]]]></description>

When a consistent steady goalkeeper is added in January, Arsenal&#8217;s trophy cupboard, empty in the last few years, should brighten up in 2011.

The closest I got to a football match was shopping at Tesco under the Reebok Stadium. My daughter Elaine does not follow football.

		<description><![CDATA[My prediction has gone awry. In August my prediction of the English Premier League 09/10 was: first, Chelsea; second, Liverpool; third, Manchester United; and fourth, Arsenal.
My prediction of champions still look formidable: physically, technically, tactically and as a team. Best in Europe right now: Chelsea.
Liverpool has surprisingly unravelled quicker than expected. Who would have known [...]]]></description>
