Last of the summer light

So we're getting to the time of year where the clocks go back and it gets dark before it gets light. We have 3 o clock games that are more than half in the dark to look forward to. Joy.

Luckily we are in form and are playing some superb football so that detracts from the depressing pre-christmas frenzy depression.

The kids played well in the carling cup. Pulling out a victoy over a decent West Brom side using a side with an average age of 7 and a half (approximation). Jeremie Aliadiere bagged both our goals and you have to be pleased for him after the dreadful couple of seasons that he has had over the past fer years with injury and the like. Clichy and Senderos both came through unscathed, strengthening the defense immeasurably.

Everton this weekend; drawn against Everton in next carling cup round. I'll avoid the obvious toffee puns.
