Thank Goodness its Saturday!
After a long week, I feel as if someone has kicked me in the face, but I'm hoping to bounce back this weekend with some rest and lashings of Premiership and Championship footer. I slept in through most of the early one, which saw the Hammers shock Citeh with a 2-1 win. I'm now setting up to watch the 10am match-up between Sunderland and Arsenal while following the rest of the matches on Soccer Saturday. Join me if you're around.
