Football Today

Some interesting games today. I personally am an Arsenal fan hoping that we can win something this year.

Sunderland 1-1 Newcastle
Asamoah Gyan scored deep into injury time to earn Sunderland a hard fought draw against rivals Newcastle

Birmingham 1-1 Aston Villa
A draw was just about the right result in a tight game in which Birmingham took the lead, only to be denied by a Collins goal in the 73rd minute

Liverpool 2-2 Everton
Kenny Daglish's return to Anfield was an eventful one. Liverpool took the lead through Merieles but Everton went 2-1 up early in the second half. A pentaly kick taken by Dirk Kuyt sealed the draw.

Tottenham 0-0 Manchester United
Tottenham could not capitalise on Rafael being sent off and the game finished 0-0, extending Man United's unbeaten run.

2011 - Something to look out for

Hi there, just thought that I would start the blog with something to look forward to.

Tap-to-pay
Something that everyone should look out for is the new 'tap-to-pay' idea. What this will mean is that people could be using digital wallets everyday to pay for anything. For example, if you went to the supermarket to buy some food, all you would have to do was swipe your wallet against a machine that would automatically deduct the money you needed to pay. This will probably lead to oyster cards becoming unessential when travelling by train. Also, this will mean that people can just bump their phones or wallets together to exchange money. Life will become a lot quicker and cash will slowly become dated and unneeded. Below is a picture of a phone that can pass as an oyster card.
