TODAY’S OPPOSITES

 

Celebrity Big Brother star Chantelle Houghton was so unhappy during her 10-month marriage to 2nd Division football club Preston North End she became intelligent, it has been claimed. Blonde Chantelle, 24, reportedly started "reading books" and researching British history soon after she tied the knot.

 

"I stopped caring about leading a vacuous and shallow life of celeb parties and buying £12,000 shoes and started to want to better myself. I even started to read Tolstoy's "War & Peace". It was a terrible time for me.”

The former professional Paris Hilton lookalike became very knowledgeable about English Literature, taking a particular interest in Robert Tressel's novel about the struggles of the early 20th century working class, "The Ragged Trousered Philanthropists". As she became more distant from her air-headed ways it became increasingly clear her relationship with Preston North End was doomed to fail. As Preston went out trying to win promotion to the Premiership and the prospect of European glory, Chantelle stayed at home alone and began reading volumes and volumes of the Encyclopedia Brittanica. "I even started to learn Japanese!," she admitted.

But thankfully, Chantelle had the courage to make the break and the couple split up in June. Chantelle herself is so pleased that she is back to her old, self absorbed, shallow headed self. After weeks of drug and booze binges her temporary intelligence has now left her. "It's great, don't ask me where Scotland is, or even Preston for that matter as I haven't a clue!” Chantelle said last night shortly after "powdering" her nose.

 

As for poor old Preston, hopefully, relegation to Division 3 beckons.

KING CARLOS’ PEARLS OF WISDOM

 

“The Preston drew at Brighton, they won at Norwich, they are doing very well in the Championship and especially in the away games. We know the opponent, we know what they can do and we are preparing the team. We have confidence to the game, our confidence now is higher, we are playing like a team and we wish to continue to play good football and to fight for the three points against a very tough opponent.”

I think it is very clear to understand. We reacted very strong after the defeat against Ipswich, we did a fantastic game against Fulham. Last game we performed well, won the three points at the Wolves and that was important. We did a very solid game but this is a good time to come back here in front of our fans. We want them to make a big presence because nobody can beat us at Hillsborough with our fans at 100%, absolutely sure.”

Great work Pauli but have you unearthed some strange Preston mass sex act in progress?

 

In the photo:-

 

Top centre - player is cupping beardy's balls.

 

Top right- clear case of pocket billiards

 

Botton centre - loveheart crotch framing going on

 

But onto purer thoughts...

 

4-1 FF, Joao, Fletch, Lee

Morning all,

 

Nice one Pauli.  

 

Momentum has clearly been picking up lately, so I think we will run riot in this one.  About time we give someone a proper smashing.  

 

5 nil Wednesday, a brace from Fernando with Lee, Joao and Wallace the other scorers.  

 

LETS DO THIS!!

 

COME ON WEDNESDAY!!!

We need form, Can't remember the last time we had real form, draws and wins with plenty of goals.

 

Please please please carry over the momentum lads, 2nd is well within reach and if we miss out then 3rd or 4th will really help get us to Wembley again.

Preston. "The fourth most successful club of all time" in the Football League don't you know. Last major honour... almost 80 years ago.

 

Is Vermicelli still at the sheep botherers?

Sorry Flying Owl ; Pauli says "no crumpet"  why don't we have a sobbing emote ?? Mebbe stunned brummie might do lol 

PLAY UP , THE WEDNESDAY

 

It says, "No crumpets", my friend.

 

A debate is raging in the Dressing Room section.

Dressing Room is a bit of owlstalk where only lunatics, mardy arses or supporters of witchcraft, homosexuality and communism are condemned to post.

 

But!

Southern fannies are insististing that our beloved Yorkshire PIKELETS should be re-named to crumpets. This will not stand.

 

Crumpet is what you get in bed and while you can also sit in your bed eating crumpets, it's not the same thing.

Crumpet is what you get in bed and while you can also sit in your bed eating crumpets, it's not the same thing.

But sometimes I gets crumpets in bed and we all eat hot buttered pikelets together just to get all dirty and greasy before the main event. ( usually sleeping at my age, pmsl )

 

However, my intrigue has been piqued by mention of this Dressing room place of which you wax lyrically and I may just pay a visit when I finally get some time off work to see if I can put my wooden spoon to some good use there.

 

Anyways, I would have made a special trip over just to smuggle Flying Owl in if There had been a proper moratorium on crumpet being allowed today.

 

Nice work anyway Pauli. Keep it up old chap. lol
