Happy New Year


So, in the oft-heard words of John Lennon, "Another year over, and a new one just begun". And what better way to start 2009 than with another banking blunder - so many of which contributed to the financial doom and gloom we saw in 2008 - and this time one that directly affects yours truly. Due to a "processing error" at Yorkshire Bank, I will not be recieving a replacement for my now expired debit card for "about another week", which annoyingly means I can't order anything off the internet - as the last time I checked Amazon don't accept £10 notes sent in the post.

Ah well, brighter times may be ahead for Nottingham Forest, who have just appointed ex-Derby manager Billy Davies as their new head coach. The decision has been somewhat controversial with some fans, due to the link with thier bitter rivals from down the A52, however these fans may be forgetting that Forest legend Brian Clough was a former 'ram' himself, as are current striker Rob Earnshaw, and goalkeeper Lee Camp, who's future at Forest is uncertain after his loan deal ended rather abruptly after the 3-2 away win over Norwich. Surely if Davies gets a couple of wins under his belt, these fans will realise that it doesn't matter where your past lies, as has been proven by the likes of Clough and Camp. Being a Forest fan myself, I hope Davies can twist the arms of these fans and have a long and succesful tenureship.

Anywho, I'll no doubt keep this up to date with all the latest ramblings and goings-on throughout the year, much to everyone's delight I'm sure, so you'll no doubt hear from me again soon. Bye all, and have a happy new year.
