Toffs Day Out Ruined ...



Oh dear ... and then Cambridge win by default when one of the wheels fell off the Dark Blue boat ... strange isn't that the same two clubs always make it to the final ...

Classic quote from Oxford "President" ... "my team went through seven months of hell, this was the culmination of our careers and you took it from us" ... and there was me thinking they were at University to learn "stuff" - oops forgot ("stereotypical generalisation" mode on) - that's not really necessary as they're all guaranteed highly-paid jobs with Daddy's firm in the City ("stereotypical generalisation" mode off )... another 'classic' quote just heard on Radio 4 (seems to be a lack of "real news" this morning) regarding the Oxford cox Zoe de Toledo ... "Zoe is known for her aggressive coxing" - well I think that's what they said ...

Just had a peep at this guy's blog (here) - a right incoherent ramble which seems to lead nowhere slowly (probably a bit like this one !!) and to be honest isn't that clever (probably a bit like this one !) - some serious vitriol posted in the comments though (never realised there were so many people who enjoyed the Boat Race - you live and learn ...) - views from the "other side" can be found on this blog (far more coherent !)

Next stop - Henley Regatta at the end of June ??? Seriously though - it might focus a few minds on security what with the Olympics coming up ...

... so ... I wonder who's going to handcuff themselves to the goalposts at Old Trafford this afternoon ? No wait - that's already been done this season (unsure as to whether Ryanair can be classed as "elite" though) !!

(Hears noise from the back - "STICK TO FOOTBALL !")
