Anecdotally it looks to me like The pubs and bars in LL have *suffered* a decline in people/footfall though *Bob* as any drinkers under 30 - and the more desperate clinging to their youth 30- 40 years old (and a few even older) - have decamped to Peckham/Bellenden. I don't think SE22 is much of a drinking destination nowadays (compered to a whilst back) it's just locals.

In other news Archduke Ferdinand is assassinated....best to look first :)

Why don't you just admit you,re wrong eh? How's your boring manager going got you up to 5th you sure you want to risk a change careful what you wish for eh blah, blah, blah. All of us Hammers on here called it right because it was obvious, whilst you lot patronised us with a load of cliches.

Careful what we wish for eh? Replacing a Man certain to keep us up With his dogshit football, %ages, and lack of respect for our traditions has sure been a disaster as you all predicted...... Slaven, you fooking beauty

Kingsley Amis suggested "Rigorous Sex"

Plus a few tried to leave the Union resulting in a very bitter and horrific civil war, so it wasn't a painless unuin was it....

Spurs bottled it - night time at the Boleyn a bit too much for their young players. I am gonna miss that place but no tears last nigh but can't see the OS being like that :(

I am still in. But mainly because I keep looking at those representing out, with friends like that etc

London Mix - on the UK betting markets Clinton is now 1/2 on for the Presidency, Trump 2/1 and Sanders 12/1...the latter 's odds demonstrates just how deluded the liberal 'intelligensia' of Social Media are if my news feed is anything to go by. I am going to lump on a reasonable sum on Clinton.

Here steveo http://www.spectator.co.uk/2016/02/i-want-to-see-president-trump-if-only-because-of-who-hed-annoy/

Off to UP for probably my last time tonight - a place that I,ve been going to for 44 years and probably been to 500 times or so; possibly a tear in an old cynics eye. Hoping for some rousing choruses of "you lost the league at West Ham" after 90 minutes COYI.

Did your mum tell that story but the other way round Steveo?

Come on Otta, Seabag's always had a bit of that and I like it, he's one of my favourites. Besides, Louisa's is just as unpleasant, much more frequently but you're a self-confessed fan so maybe a bit of inverse snobbery here?

Anyway. Back to BFS. My sources tell me he was widely ignored and then we went and ground out a BFSesque 1-0 result, both must have ruined his day which is good enough for me.

No. Most northerners I meet in London are accountanr's daughters from Harrogate or solicitors sons from nice villages in the Peak District all pretending to be of mining stock.

Wetherspoons burgers aren't great either
