Well it's fucked up my MacBook Pro (mid-2010) and now I can't get past the grey boot screen. Doesn't help that I cannot find my old Snow Leopard CD anywhere.

Seems alright to me, it's made Safari at least useful now, whereas before it was too far behind Chrome to even bother with. Everything else seems superfluous though, set up my Twitter in notification centre, etc.

Pantilimon, Savic, Kompany, Kolo Toure, Kolarov, Zabalata, Biton, Yaya Toure, Razak, Aguero, Van Persie

That's the City team to face Arsenal.

I read on some Israeli site last night that a French team is interested in Biton if we don't sign him after the trial. Marseille maybe? Who knows the validity.. I haven't really read too much about his stint. Heard anything?

Nope. Me neither. I don't know if we'll sign him.

So I was looking all over to find a legal stream of the game and I guess it must have been available on MCFC based on their tweet? Oh well, what can ya do! Nice to see the team starting to score a few goals even if they're meaningless. Still surprised that some of the guys from the Euros aren't back yet given that it's almost August already. Community Shield is just 2 weeks away!

I believe we toyed with the idea of running 3-5-2 in the friendly versus the team from Saudi Arabia.. Kolarov played a bit as a winger. With him likely on his way out, it'll be interesting to see if the formation is used in anything that counts. Clichy definitely has the pace and crossing ability where he could be used as more of a WB or MF.

Sounds good, now I'm just even more annoyed and going through piles of shit in the attic to find the box is a nightmare. I blame Boot Camp.

Missed the GB game yesterday but didn't miss much from the looks of it. Got a ticket for the semi final football match at Wembley but not sure which team would be best to watch. Spain v Brazil?

for Salazar, I'm only going to link it.

Lol, that sign behind him. Everytime they take a picture there the player is covering a part of it and it looks like the writing on the sign is "clinica di sesso" (sex clinic). Must be the official photographer's little joke.

It's a really boring story. :) I was explaining something about Europe's (possibly Slovenia's) geography in a post, got east and west confused and what little credibility I had went down the drain. Hilarity ensued, got tagged.

People will always hate him, but some for the wrong reasons. He was wrong to blast that journo how he did.

But he was right in this.

Everyone remembers that especially with him mocking Arsenal's lack of trophies after City's title win. He goes on about letting things go but whether it be for the national side incorporating the press into his celebrations/confrontations or his comments on Arsenal the past few months, It just seems like he cares too much about his self-image and once someone/a group gets on the bad side of him that's all he focuses on.

Don't think the French Press or Arsenal fans will be forgetting about him or letting go anytime soon with his behaviour the past few months. If he had nothing but good words for Arsenal and never mentioned it again, the hate he receives wouldn't have been as bad I can tell you that.

I like the new Sky Sports adverts which appear to interview fans! They are quite cool. Some awesome moments featured too.

Ashley Williams is great. Swansea will be really hurting if they lose both Allen and Williams, especially after Sigurdsson went to Tottenham.

They will but they've made 3 very good signings to cover all of them.

If they managed to hold onto Williams and Allen then they'd actually be adding depth.
