Nightmare November continues. The cold weather on Tuesday evening almost dissuaded me from a trip to the pub, but a lack of decent internet feeds tipped the balance. Wish I'd stayed at home in the warm. Another capitulation abroad. Wednesday, the OL match was on TV so this time I did stay in the warm. Another capitulation abroad. The European seasons of les gones and les gooners have matched each other this year. First three games, three wins, all hunky dory. Next two games, both away, two dire defeats apiece. The difference is that OL are through to the next round, thanks to Tel Aviv, the whipping boys in the group, beating Benfica. No such help from Partizan Belgrade for AFC.
Meanwhile, just to deepen the gloom, winter has arrived early. After 20C less than two weeks ago, today the maximum forecast is 2C. November can't end soon enough...
