United Stroll the Community Shield

The season has now started for all the lower league teams and Manchester United and Chelsea enjoyed a run out at Wembley with the Chelsea team looking a shadow of their former selves from last year. The World Cup has left several players with a footballing hangover that from the looks of it will take at least a month to shift.
The game was controlled by United from start to finish and when Chelsea did manage to score United were simply stung into action and scored again to ensure they won by two in a game they never looked likely to lose. There have been many stating that United aren’t strong enough and don’t have the depth in midfield but with a young squad partnered with the experience of players like Scholes and Giggs they look to be maturing into a very strong title challenging team.
Chelsea have some problems to overcome this year with players like Lampard, terry and Cole all struggling for fitness after their dismal World Cup showing. The marquee signings haven’t materialised and this has left the Chelsea squad looking weak in comparison to their closest rivals. It will be a big season for Chelsea with Manchester City now in possession of the biggest cheque book.
My weekend was spent watching my team lose at home and then a day and a half on the poker tables. I am currently looking to book a holiday to Vegas and need to earn some serious money. I’m multi-tabling my heart out trying to boost my rakeback from www.rakeback.co.uk and hopefully earn enough to pay for my holiday and a good sized bankroll for when I am out there.
I have enough saved at the moment from online rakeback poker to lose several buy ins at $1/$2 but would prefer to warm up at these and then move up to higher limits where the rake is less painful. If things go well over the next month at the online rake back poker tables and with a good rakeback payment I should get to my target and be ready for Vegas in September. Fingers crossed!
