Work recommencing..

...on my book.

The festive period is well and truly over, and just to make sure I wasn't enjoying back to back SPL wins to much Motherwell decided to roll over and take a spanking off St.Mirren in the cup. Truly abysmal performance and quite out of character these days it felt like watching Dunfermline.

Anyway we've got to home games against the OF due up, and if Clyde are anything to go by we should have nothing to fear, well other than us being totally unable to get anything off rangers in last 9 games and them having signed opponent from hell number 46934 Kris Boyd. He is guaranteed to score and we'll do well not to get humped. The Celtic game the week after should be better they have already had a modicum of revenge for last seasons late late trophy costing humping from a 5-0 cuffing at Parkhead and they'll likely wait until our CIS cup semi final to really rub it in.

Wouldn't mind so much losing in the cup but the performance wasn't just bad it was gutless and in front of an excellent travelling support it's a slap in the face. If i'd been on the park i'd have been offering my weeks wages back.

Still shit happens, swings and roundabouts at least i enjoyed the prematch build up, between Motherwell and Scotland it's a wonder there isn't more alcohol problems than there already is in lanarkshire.

Reading a new book also just now, bought courtesy of book vouchers, it's called Blood and Oil. Not finished it yet, but it occurs to me has no one thought that using less just might be a fucking good idea? Even if you could transport the entire supply of persian gulf oil to the USA and save money on these expensive wars it's still gonna run out sooner or later. Instead of expending so much more fighting over it, start building for a future beyond oil now and trying to make it stretch as far as it can seems a good way to start?

Anyway i'm off to get back to my own book just now.
