I'd rather see a rebuild with passion and imagination than hang on by the fingernails season after season.

I'm not sayin nuffink but stay away from the cheap burgers, they aint 'orse no more, you got me?

You could try "Cantons! Coo! You lot Chinese eh!? are ya? eh!? Hahahaaaahahahaha!" That will have them rolling in the Milch Bar.

DoDos? ProPlus? How long before someone mentions grilled banana skins or Greek asthma cigarettes mashed up and eaten in yoghurt. *sighs nostalgically*

The old enclosed 'tat' market that used to be near the southern end of East Street on a Sunday back in the mid 80s - guy in a big van selling bacon and onion sarnies on bloomer - thick sliced back bacon with a charcoal-y finish. Not a combo I would have come up with but they were the best I've ever tasted*. Since then - well-done (just before crispy) grilled green streaky (dry cure) on Italian white (no butter - bread dipped lightly in the bacon grease) with HP sauce or English mustard. *Hangovers were often a factor

Pah! If it don't and pretty bloody soon then I hope he waves bye-bye smartish.

...and great yolks from little eggcorns grow. A friend of mine was notorious for mangling his idioms when teaching his students; they were "Green behind the ears" or might "open a barrel of worms" but would put "all hands behind the pump". Any promise of excellence would be met with a knowing wink and "Ah, that'd be cake on top!"

Roeder caused the exodus but be fair - he did bring cultured players like Bowyer and Repka and Brevett to the club - all that 'yeah but he's a lovely bloke' cobblers... Lou Macari for me. Just wrong, wrong, wrong.

As I said TED - that's up to 08.30, the crowds thin out after that as people have to get to work so it's v busy early but less so immediately afterwards and therefore quite quick if you can be a bit late for work. It's probably the same at ED but that is more of a diversion if you're relying on buses. ETA: @Sue - you're quite right - I should have said Kings can be quicker if you have to do the test on your way to work. If you are staying in ED then Dulwich Hospital is a better bet and if you go later in the day the waiting is minimal.

Best to go to Kings if the timing is workable (last test I had there was quick, clean, painless and didn't even leave a bruise) - "GP patients may attend the Phlebotomy Department, King?s College Hospital for tests only on Tuesdays, 12.30 to 4.45pm, and Fridays, 7.30am to 12.30pm. GP patients attending King's Phlebotomy Department outside these hours will not be seen" The Friday am slot is VERY busy up to about 08.30 (a nurse there told me they often have people queuing from 06.30) so if you can be a little late for work this might be the best option.

The reason, as has been stated, that some places, like GBK, have a high rating is that all their stuff arrives in sealed boxes and only has to be either heated/cooked/microwaved/unpacked or rehydrated. No guarantee that the factories and warehouses that supply this grub are places of impeccable hygiene though. #outofsightoutofmind

Who was on the panel? Nicolas Soames, Eric Pickles, Diane Abbot, Dr Therese Coffey (MP), Baron Martin of Springburn, and Fat boy Prescott?

Perhaps it just means there are more people in ED making fraudulent claims...? *hurries off to make claim before ins. companies cotton on

Worse things about it was - (I was sat in a gooner section and yes I sat on my hands when we went one up) - all the Arsenal fans around me were moaning about how the first half was often like this and how badly they were playing and how a better team would be two or three up by half time. That really bites - that we could have had a real go. I could just about deal with his giving up for the Man U visit but not this. The fact that it took them nearly 45 minutes to realise there was no Irons threat at all and we were there for the taking if they just stepped it up - we looked like a joke in those 10-12 minutes.

I trust you told him that stuff would rot his guts and gave him a four pack of micro-brewery lager and some low-sodium crisps? ETA; Or nachos and a dip would be nice too.

'Pratfall' - means to fall on one's arse so I think prat also means arse.

Sam? Oi, Sam! "What?" You do know Demel is fucking useless? "He's a big lad" Yeah but he's fucking useless Sam! "He's a big strong lad" But Sam he spent the whole game hiding behind Arsenal players and dodging the ball! He plays like an elbow. "I like him" And Sam? "What now?" About Vaz Te, I know he was okay in the Championship but he's become a fucking embarrassment! "He's a foreign lad. They're good" But Sam tonight he was like Bambi on fucking Ice! "Portuguese - that's nearly Spanish" He kept falling over. "I like him" A freezing nightmare. First half Arsenal were shit - I mean really poor. Second half they decided to play and we were shafted. No plan B, no imagination, no pace, no grit, no fuck all. Big Sam's football revolution goes tits up big style. Then the agony of watching little Danny Potts lying motionless on the turf for 10 minutes. The one plus? I understand why there's no atmosphere at The Emirates - because Arsenal fans don't start chanting until they're 3-up. And when they've scored 4 they really let themselves go, you could actually hear them in surrounding streets I'm sure! Five was too many and they went back to their iphones. Bollocks. It's been a bad night. Sometimes I really hate football.
