I know Saturday is a traditional 'sports' day, but it does'nt mean you want to watch it 'ad infinitum'. Watched the last bit of 'Arsenal v Leeds' on 'ITV' in the 'FA Cup'. This once great competition is now seen as Third best behind the 'Champions League' and the 'Premiership', so some of the so called 'Shock' results dont have the same meaning as in past times. This is because the bigger clubs play 'fringe' players, so one of the shocks should have said 'Southampton 2 Blackpool reserves 0' for example. I also see that the caption in the left hand corner of live games sees the abbreviation of 'Arsenal' as 'Asl' where it used to read 'Ars' in the past. The latter probobly offended some 'Old Farts Knitting Circle' so it has been altered.
Watched most of the 'Darts' semi finals. That 'Dean Winstanley' looks a bit older than 29, but should give 'Adams' a good run in the final.
Watched 'Iron Man' on 'Channel 4'. This must be the 5th time I have seen it, but there was'nt much on other channels. Also saw the last 30 mins of ' The Secret Life of Bob Monkhouse' on 'BBC 4'. Looked like an interesting piece. I shall look out on 'I Player' or a repeat.
