News dump
A quick digest
Sagnol tells the oldies to sit down, chill out and, above all, to shut the kfuc up ..
No news if filtering out about the french footy teams' preparations for tonights crucial match against South Corea ... notice how the big teams are having trouble against the 'minnows' ;o/ ... the papers here, therefore, been filling their back pages with no-news : Malouda's been out witha dose of the old Patrick st Giles, Dhorasso lives like a hermit and Willy Sagnol has invited the retired players to ... in the current vernacular * ahem* "shut their gobs".
The current grab for the handbags started earlier in the week when Little Willy got the hump, as it were, from what he deemed to be disobliging comments from retired players from the '98 team.
"Their way of playing is decieving" (Laurent Blanc), "A slow team" (Didier Deschamps) "Like a flat brainscan" (Bernard Lama) "Missing the determination"(Christophe Dugarry).
To which, never one to be known to hold his tongue, Sagnol suggested that they should "fermer leur gueule " and that the remarks were "hors contexte".
All of this hullabaloo is hiding the real story of the week : Ségolène Royal got agressed .. her terms not mine .. by a custard tart waving bad person. The Nouvel Obs even gives us the juicy detail that there was even one solitary cherry on top.
On an even moooore seriouser note; the Last king of Italy's son has been arrested under corruption and prostitution ring charges ... it's a special, summer 'buy one get one free', kinda deal ... apparently he was involved with a suspected mafia network which has been busy installing gambling machines and prozzies all around the Italian / Suisse border.
Meanwhile, back to this side of La Manche; whilst attention is being diverted by the world cup, the Chirac government (for all its unpopularity) is still busy trying to come up with its next screw up.
According to the Journal Du Dimanche, the président receives a positive rating from 27% and the Prime minister recieves 23% in a sample of 1854 people.
Under the cover of darkness, Sarkozy ... *booo* hisssss*booooo* ... has had his new chosen immigration law passed through the senate : from now on, if you're from a special status country that France wants to business with, you can have a special visa, linked to your job-skills .... hmmmmm
Foochabôl
Rooonéhh Rooonéhh clicky ;o)
Be carefull about what you wearing for matches; one bunch of dutch supporters were barred (and bared) because their clothes just happened to resemble the colours of an alternative alcoholic beverage ....
What a bunch of pessimists we all are ho-hum; Football's not coming home apparently... especially if Svenson doesn't drop footy spice and keeps the same playing style.
A part from the footy news, both the Observer and the Indy have at their top page : "US military honoured in secret by Britian " which tells us about a highly unusual tale about kickbacks for business between big businesses who deal with the Ü.S army ... all very sain and healthy
The indy highlights that the archbishop of Canterbury has decided that tory leader (David Cameron) is a role model for fathers .. i don't know why, but it bothers me a bit, just some where ..
The times, meanwhile has finally started getting worried about squaddies staying in the line of fire with a bridge to far story about Afghanistan.
A micro news dump today - it's too nice to stay in
