Here's a recap of the happenings in the month of January. It was a busy, busy month filled with magical things. Magical? What, you don't believe me? You can't remember any magic you say? Just take another look at the picture above. Now that's just pure magic!!!

January 04 2010: Pandev signs on till 2014

A little lost sheep found his way back home and I'm sure he couldn't be happier. Heck, I'm sure all of us couldn't be happier that one of our Primavera youths came back! Grande Goran!!!


Jan 6 2010: Chievo - Inter 0 - 1

This was an absolutely atrocious match. The pitch was the worst I've ever seen in my life! This game came down to a swift counter attack. Sneijder started it, Pandev continued it and Balotelli finished it. Took Balo 2 attempts to finish it but hey, whose counting?


Jan 8 2010: Vieira signs for Manchester City

Happiest day of my life! Vieira in another blue.

Jesus in Heaven sent Roberto Mancini to City just for me. Jesus in Heaven made Mancini decide that he wanted Patty. Jesus in Heaven made sure the transfer happened. Jesus in Heaven, guess what? I LOVE YOU!!!


Jan 9 2010: Inter - Siena 4 - 3

Talk about crazy. And no, I'm not talking about myself. I'm talking about the chain of events that occurred in this match. First, Maccarone in the 18th minute decides he wants to unleash all his frustration on the ball from 30 years out. Milito then pulls one back before Sneijder puts one of his specialties. Ekdal for Siena later on put the visitors on level terms once again before Maccarone decided he had enough of the draw. At this point I'm on the verge of tears thinking that we may lose our first home game in FOREVER, then, out of no where, Wesley the Sniper put a freekick in from about 30 yards out. All square at this point. right. Samuel then took matters into his own hands. No, not Samuel Eto'o. WALTER SAMUEL, playing as an emergency CF did his best impersonation of Milito and slotted that ball into the net like if it were nothing. Pandev has to be credited for his assist. Awesome Vison. Pure Euphoria!!!

Jan 16 2010: Bari - Inter 2 - 2

Bari decided to continue the trend of upsetting big teams in this fixture. Pandev was yet again instrumental in this fixture scoring the first goal and winning the penalty that Milito converted

Jan 19 2010: Ibrahimovic named player of year at Italy’s “Oscars”

Hate him or love him, Zlatan is one of the best. This award was awarded to him for his work last season with us. Congrats Ibra

Jan 24 2010: Inter - Milan 2 - 0

I'll let this pitcure do all the talking here...

Jan 27 2010: Sneijder receives a 2 match ban for clapping

"uhhhhhhh what?" yeah... That's what i said too... Totally ludicrous

Jan 28 2010: Inter - Juventus 2-1

Happy Birthday Gigi Buffon. Inter's present to you? A clean sheet for a WHOLE 70 minutes! =D

Jan 31 201: Amantino Mancini joins AC Milan on loan

This man has been totally useless. Biggest waste of money in recent years. I'm happy he's gone.

Jan 31 2010: Mariga signs for Inter

I have no clue who is boy is. I'm waiting to see him play before I pass judgment.

Posted by MAD on 02/06/2010

February is going to be tough for us to get through in one piece.

The schedule is not kind considering the Champions League dates.

Awesome blog Kirby!

Bleh, inter = LAL
That being said, I think they are reaping the rewards of hard work... from the Calciopoli Setup.
Bunch of Frauds that inter side!

We're never complete without the trolls, are we? :)

Posted by Kirby Michael on 02/06/2010

Troll just make it oh so sweeter. They always hate on whats better than them. Not their fault really. Its really the fault of their side inability. Poor them.
