The Bonetti Diaries

Mamma Mia, Here I Go Again. My Godness Graciousness, Wot a last 2 weeks. Half of Rayne Farrell given the Plastic Mac and the other 45 % will surely be on his Milky before November is done. Team DFC have gone from title favourites to regulation candidates in the blink of an eye. But how are the Borassic Dee going to afford a replacement ? Stop the search for funds immediately, I Say, if not sooner. Give George Osborne a bell and get the phone number of his Russian Oligarchial mate, he surely wouldn't notice a couple of million if it found its way into the Dens coffers. That might be enough to tempt Juan Day At A Time to forget his disastrous spell with Alec Totten Ham Hotspurs and come up to help our lads. And wot's the big deal about Mickel Antoine Telegraph falling asleep during the rerun of the Ross Country game - the whole defence did for 90 minutes, why shouldn't one of the forwards ?

Anyways, bad night in Madcaster for the cream of Scottish football, Glasgow Celtic. It was like men against fetuses. 3-0 for Sir Alec's men , one from Rooney and 2 from the Assistant Referee. Isn't it amazing how its only match officials outside Scotland that the Old Infirm complain about. Its about time that the Big 2 got a dose of their own medication.

Anyways the Dee's injury problems continue - Ying Yang Young's first appearance in a Dark Blue strip still seems as far off as ever - he's even brought out his own mail order catalogue of injuries. Colin Cameronese, Gary McKenzie from Lenzie and Kaiser Jim Lauchlan may just be back in time for the regulation battle. At least the crisis has given fringe players a chance to shine - unfortunately, none of them have. Even our lone signing from the Huns, Be Marcus Deasley has done nothing to convince.

Mind you , its not just the Dees that are off form. Rio Speedwagon made a couple of Robbie Fowlers against Everton on Saturday and Wayne Rooney was subbied during the second half after having a mare. Ronaldo doesn't look interested either.

Why does none of this make me feel any better ?

Ciao, Benny and Javier Nice Week.
