Yahoo! 360° is closing

RIP Yahoo 360°. Closing down 19th July 2009

I have recently received an email from "Yahoo! 360°" telling me that it is closing down, so yesterday, I spent several hours copying and pasting my old Yahoo! 360° blogs. I was never at home with 360° as it was slow and overcomplicated. With blogger, I am able to tweak the new posts so that they appear to have their original post dates on them. I did tart a few of them up with newly added photos. Check the sidebar for my blogspot previous posts in 2006, 2007 and 2008 to view these old posts.

We won one one nil....

Relief all around the region as Aston Villa win their first game since I cant remember when. A first half goal from Norwegian striker John Carew was enough to earn Aston Villa a narrow but deserved victory over struggling Hull. Carew found space in the box to divert in an Ashley Young left-wing cross with his instep to break the deadlock. Former Villa reserve keeper, Boaz Myhill spared Hull from a heavier scoreline with a number of good saves including a superb point-blank parry from Gabriel Agbonlahor.

Hot on the heels of Birmingham's win at Reading on Sunday, this success was long overdue.

BLUES WIN MARRED BY PHONE IN VILLA ABUSE

Mindless idiots on TOM ROSS's radio phone in yesterday were obviously drunk, as we got the endless barrage of 'back where we belong' and '$hit on The Villa' and the like. Now I've always wanted success for all our local teams, and will do so long after all my teeth have, like my hair, fallen out, but yesterday's sickening phone in tirade, reminded me of the Blues fan who ran onto the pitch when Peter Enkelman let Olof Mellbergs throw in under his foot into the net, and the distasteful Robbie Savage went down like a wet lettuce when Dion Dublin replied to Savages racist comments, resulting in Dublin's red card.
