Didier Drogba,Tooting & lack of birds

Todays (or the first of todays) blog entry pays tribute to the man that is Didier Drogba and his amazing recovery skills,not since the days of Jesus has anyone witnessed such powers of recovery as we witnessed last night at Stamford Bridge in the first leg of Chelseas champions league semi final.Chelsea won the match 1-0 from a goal by the man in question,Sir Didier Drogba who minutes before and minutes before that and minutes before that and minutes before that and minutes before that and minutes before that and minutes before that (you get my point) had been writhing around on the floor in complete agony after terrible challenge after challenge rained in on the poor little weak african.how he got up and dusted himself down to score the winner last night is nothing short of miraculous,what a man.............

Now for my next subject,Tooting & fucking Mitcham United,this is the club who back in December announced a 7 year plan to get them from the Ryman Premier League (hornchurch's league) to the Football League,well last week they got out of the league at the first attempt,well done Tooting,step one of the plan going accordingly,only except,them getting out of the league culminated in them getting relegated.I love these teams with Plans.
Well Tuesday night,with their relegation already confirmed,they welcomed Wealdstone to their ground for a Ryman Premier League match,Wealdstone are going for the Play offs so it was an important game for them and the teams around them (not us,we are already confirmed as a play off spot if we dont win the league),So Tooting adhering to the good nature of Non League Football don't play a keeper,having got rid of theirs a week or so ago.What kind of club enters into a game without a keeper,surely the league should do something about this and maybe think about relegating the club 2 leagues instead of one.This is a joke and shows what a shambles the club has become.They lost the game 6-0 and the other play off hopefulls are furious as are many non league football fans,its just not on,i hope they are punished accordingly.

Next to birds,i have not been proper Birdwatching since i broke my ankle,this is depressing me,however the weather being shit as it has been has meant some of that depression has been lifted.I have made two forrays over to Thames chase,culminating in two hours of "birding" by the feeders,neither time seeing much of any substance,the odd tit and finch,kestrel but nothing really i couldn't see at home.On my mums feeders in the last week i have had Great Spotted Woodpecker,Coal tit,Blackcap and all the usual garden stuff along with a nice Mistle Thrush.Since i came home on tuesday i have added Coal tit to my garden list,along with chiffchaff which flew over.Today the weather is crap so i will keep an eye out the window for as long as i can and see what i can find.........may speak to you later,rob


So think of me while you are out finding your Wheatears,Willow warblers,hirundines and any other migrant that decides to drop down when your out birding.....
