Sunday Sermon

Good result yesterday, not just for the Welsh but also rugby. The 6 nations still wide open, and knowing the French mindset who says they won't beat England at Twickenham in 2 weeks? And what the hell was the score with the pitch, I've seen ploughed fields in better shape. Anyway well done Ryan Jones & Leigh Halfpenny. Kept the side moving and the scoreboard ticking over, still not sold on Dan Biggar & can't decide if its lack of confidence or talent.

I've come to the conclusion that Italy were poor rather than Scotland being impressive, but decent result much needed by the Scots. Today's game in Ireland has the potential to be a cracker, if Ireland can recycle the ball quickly they may get their just rewards. Will look at the Irish hotshots on the spreads again, another profitable day from them yesterday.

Couple of shock results in the footy yesterday, not least Mancini's outburst following their defeat. Surely things like criticising players should stay behind closed doors. His team have effectively handed the title to United, and his public comments have surely just sealed it. Remember seeing a interview with Peter Schmiechel were he said when he got cocky he made too many mistakes, 'somebody' had a word he sorted his head & self discipline out and went went forward from there. Joe Hart take note!! Just watching the Barca game, there is a club that seems to have got it right, owned by the fans, great talent, ethos around family, just watching and I've got pangs of jealously wishing i was there.

I see that F1 season is fast approaching again, for what its worth my money will be on Alonso this year, Vettell will be hard to beat but I have a feeling the FIA may be out to handicap the Red Bull team, allowing the other teams to catch up.

Racing very iffy today, with only Exeter going ahead (+ AW if you really want!!) but going is heavy with more rain forecast. Yesterdays footy trade done OK, so a couple more to look at today.
