Steve Bull for England (v Scotland), May 27 1989

The Premiership season kicks off at 12:45 on 13th August when Manchester Utd take on Everton.

When that happy moment arrives, I will be sat in my seat at Old Trafford, hopefully slightly the worse for wear and cheering on a triumphant home team to a well deserved and important victory.

Yes.

It's the third day of the third test of the 2005 Ashes at Lancashire's Old Trafford Cricket ground. In a five Test series, this could easily be a crucial day in deciding the fate of one of sports most famous trophies and one of sports oldest rivalries.

Bollocks to the football.

Yay to the cricket.
It's a nice time waster until the Football starts!
I'll be looking out for you!

the 4th test is at Trent Bridge - look out for the six blokes dressed as the Spanish Inquisition on the Saturday.

You ain't seen me, right?

I heard this was a new football blog and what do I find? References to a poncy sport that's only slightly less dull than bowls.

Cheer up Alan Shearer, you could have been Mike Gatting.

Come on you Blues etc. etc.

bowls can be quite interesting, you know.

I'll get my coat.
