is football intune with nature!?

there is an advert on the tv just now basically talking about the butterfly effect....you know the one if a butterfly flaps its wings on one side of the planet then there is a tidal wave on the other...the balance of life type of thing...

well I never really thought much about it until tonight. I have to say that i can see some truth in the point and would even dare to say that I have evidence to back it up.....


there I was sat in the highest point of old trafford stadium (any higher and God would be sitting next to me...oh yes He was - well high enough to be mindful of nose bleeds!!!) watching what has got to be said was one of the most boring games of international football I have ever seen. The final score never reflects the play but neither side really deserved to win so I suppose the result stands.....and as by contrast there as the complete underdogs was Scotland. Faced by no less than the 'auld alliance' who when they last played scotland hammered them 5-0. So what a great delight, nay pleasure, nay overwhelming sense of achievement when the text message came from Scotland telling me that the 'auld allince' had played, dived, objected and been denied all efforts and Scotland were victors to make them the top of their league without question.

So you see perhaps the butterfly theory works, not only restoring the balance of mankind but restoring the Scottish team to the rightful place....at the top of the country!!!

My condolances to Rich...it was unlucky to let in 5 right enough.....

Not really that bothered about the 5-1 scoreline to be honest, football isnt really a welsh thing!
