ENGRRLAND


Well, where do I start my rant about our so-called World Cup team?


I know a few of you may well defend them, but in all honesty their hearts and souls were not in that tournament what-so-ever. If it was, we would have seen matches like we saw in the qualifiers but we didn't.

Yesterday's defeat against Germany could have been a spectacular match, but it wasn't. In fact, the England squad should have taken notes on how to play quality football just like the Germans displayed.
Our team were a complete joke. The players are no longer in it for the game or the love of football, but for the "stunning" wags, the overpaid paycheck, sponsorship deals and publicity and its all this crap that is ruining the game so many of us love.

Something else I don't understand is why are we playing the same crap players in these tournaments, when they've never managed to win anything in the past? Nevermind sacking the manager, get rid of these numpties who can't play. Bring in a fresh pair of legs, some younger talent who would put the effort in and not roll around on the floor or try pot luck shots at goal to make attempts at getting their faces on the front page as heroes when they're simply not.

Anyway, kudos to the Germans. You played far superior to us and you deserve to go through.
As for England, hang your heads in shame. You're not worth the press coverage, the paycheck or to wear an England shirt. You best go now and think about what you've done. Now go on, bugger off down your own end before I tell your father!

Christian - Production Update













Filming began on the new Dracula film 'Christian' in Whitby, North Yorkshire.

The Monk's Haven Cafe was the setting for the first three scenes filmed on Monday and Tuesday night with Carl Isherwood (above), David Brown and Sarah Robinson all giving great performances.

The first day's shoot always is the 'bum squeaker' for me as you never know what could happen.
But thankfully all went well. There were a few funny moments during the shoot and the odd joke being played on David (Det. Richards) as an ice-breaker to relax everyone which seemed to have done the trick.

The only one problem we've had so far is the damn British Summer weather being a pain again.
Its done nothing but rain, and rain hard in Whitby since Sunday, which has forced us to reschedule a couple of days filming until the weather improves allegedly next week.


But if all goes well (weather wise) we should be filming the vampire scenes, where the actors get to don the old prosthetics and teeth. A moment I'm excited to see, especially seeing Carl (Christian) in his full vampire slaying wardrobe and Dracula on set marking his return to Whitby, which will no doubt excite the crowds.

I'll be posting more on here plus you can keep upto date with things on the official movie site and facebook page.
