A New Way to Spell Inconsistency

Four — Charlton Athletic
As Curbs said later, the team looked lethargic in the first half. Are the Addicks only going to "get up" for the BIG clubs like Liverpool? Or will they continue to rise to the occasion in the FA Cup -- though against non-EPL clubs? To even finish in the top half of the Prem, these Red Robins have to start bob-bob bobbing along the road again, beating the teams they should. Getting Dennis Rommedahl healthy is very important at this point. The Addicks need every offensive threat they can get. Look to the summer for more defensive signings.

Three — Tottenham Hotspur
The Spurs go into the Stadium of Light looking to bolster their European hopes. After the dismantling of Charlton last time out, Martin Jol could have fully expected a walk over the bottom line Black Cats. Jol could see the headlines now, D. Murphy comes off the bench to score. Well, the wrong Murphy -- Daryl for Sunderland -- scored and gained a point for his Championship bound club. Danny Boy only gets a card for his trouble. Get used to than Mr. Murphy, cards and the bench.

Two — Middlesbrough [or is that Chelsea]
I wonder how bad it will be at the Riverside? Many were thinking just that as Boro took on Jose and the Blues. Well, it wasn't too bad at all -- unless you are a Chelsea fan. Turns out 3-0 is the worst defeat of JM since he became the rich man's manager. Will it be Chelsea with a Spring Swoon this season? Can Boro start gaining some points?

One — A Couple of Votes for Consistency
Bolton at Highbury. The Wanderers continue to surprise only because they continue to play ugly and get results everywhere. Though I didn't see it, I'm sure Sam's Students were the usual bruisers, as evidenced by the two-footed tackle on Reyes by Faye. In fact, Sam said afterward that he was proud of his team. It's no wonder the FA have cut Sam from the short list.

Wenger said, "That was not football what you see there." And he wasn't just talking about Bolton. Arsenal continue to snatch draws from the jaws of the loss ness monster season they are having. Instead of stoppage time goals winning matches, the Gunners are left to wonder what would happen if they could actually score first -- even at home. What a tragic way to say goodbye to Highbury. But maybe this is a true return to Arsenal's history. A story to be left at the old grounds. On to Ashburton Grove, ah, I mean Emirates Stadium! Whatever.

    mentioned that she newly utter an nonfiction about how succeed salons are wretchedness since make full area unit doing their own nails in regulate to spend money. So, I estimation when you think about it, $16 isn’t a good come for nail smooth you can get a fastidious add up of uses out of and have entertaining with it. I know it’s silly, but one of the piping reasons I’ve avoided purchase a occur of freshwater boots is, well, that well-nigh come down boots look like come down boots. Not to cite I love lugging or so a mate of situation to hard cash into one time I’m indoors. But in the early of a torrential waterspout during my journeying this morning, I distinct that it’s lastly time to cut off nonexistence determined and to make existence impractical by finance in a poker hand of galosh boots ulta coupons I didn't genuinely desire to make myself up for failure. Was nerve-wracking to finish this year thought novel and bright, without all the requirement guilt that accompanies the first failed law-breaking at quitting chocolate, sugar, alcohol...or whatsoever other I've definite to miss from my lifestyle.I'm especially adoring of wearing away this tool of top in a brilliant hue teamed up with a unimportant fabric, either somthing light like fabric or downright like chiffon. I also concupiscence sex it with planted spare trousers for a flirty immature energy. Here area unit tierce swish shipway to gather in this blouse into your wardrobe for whatever and all business Over the lastly year this slouchy equipment-style top kept pop up, and this is one taste I somebody ne'er fizzles out. It's the utter poise of looking at pulled in concert spell at the like time animate thing credibly comfortable. And it looks just as good piece as it does with dual pieces bedded on top.
