That particular manager didn't last five minutes did he. Was out of his depth. I'll also be reserving judgement until things are up and running. I'd certainly welcome the toilets being given a complete refurb.

1. Spurs win the League and FA Cup double. 2. Pigs will fly. Hope I'm right about the first one.

As a regular myself I know it can do with few slight adjustments here and there but if they can keep it to what it is - a proper friendly back street boozer then I'll be very happy. It could be a lot worse. Someone could have bought it, closed it down and turned it into flats. As long as it keeps going and isn't completely unrecognisable as to what it was before then I'm happy.

I was at White Hart Lane tonight and the Baggies parked the proverbial bus in front of our goal. I knew wouldn't be easy and was nervous as hell before the game and would have settled for the one-nil. Three more points in the bag though. Anyway, we play our game in hand against Everton next week. Win that and I think we can safely assume we won't be relegated this season.

Oh ye Gods! Not this again. No no no no no no! Haven't we got enough supermarkets in East Dulwich already. Jeez! If that's what you want, move somewhere that has them.

It's a very old joke at that. I mean Chris Rea FFS.

Many years ago when I was off the sauce I'd drink Sparkling water and lime with ice and a slice when I was in the pub. Hated the fact that I had to do it but it needed to be done or I was probably going to end up dead. Other than that I love ginger beer. Mango juice is another favourite too. Good luck Otta.

All said and done though. I bet he can still do the business. Watching MOTD last night Arsenal's finishing was woeful. They could have had a hatful in the first half and it would have been game over. I think it's very astute of Wenger to bring him back even if it's only for a few months. I remember when Jurgen Klinsman came back to Spurs and he saved us from relegation with his goals and his vast experience. It can only rub off on the younger players and they can learn from him.

Reggie. 1. A lot. Especially with a drink. They go together like bacon and eggs. 2. Apart from getting rid of my hacking cough in the mornings I wouldn't. Never deprive yourself of the things you enjoy in life. That's my motto.

Sorry to hear about your Dad Mick Mac. Was the cancer related to smoking? I have a similar story. When my dad got cancer and had one of his kidneys removed he was told to stop immediately. He said: "It's a bit late now," and carried on. Miraculously, he beat cancer, heart disease too. Strokes got him in the end (aged 80) after a two year struggle after his first one. I should probably stop smoking too. I'm hopelessly addicted (over 30 a day) but enjoy it and quite frankly couldn't give a toss if it kills me. If I stop enjoying it. I'll quit. So, good luck to anyone who tries. I hope you're successful.

I can't help sniggering at that one. I'm off to White Hart Lane tomorrow for game against the Baggies. Another three points for Spurs and I'll be elated. COYS!

Spurs 1-1. Next four games at home though.

Forget the postcode snobbery (inverted or not). It's a very nice road with smart houses. Had a relative live there for a little while a couple of years back and they were very happy there and very sad when they had to move. You've got very good links via East Dulwich & Peckham. Plus you've got a smashing pub around the corner on Ivanhoe Road called Hoopers.

No but thanks for the update.

Fantastic result. That'll go a long way to taking some of the pressure off Steve Kean.

Thanks Jonny. Doesn't sound like my mate.

Thanks Jonny. You're a kind hearted soul. I've been a bit worried about my mate as I know he has already slept rough in Crystal Palace and Peckham Rye parks. You could always PM me if you get to see him tomorrow.

Hope he's OK. He obviously needs help. I have a friend who's been homeless for a while now and been sleeping rough but has been too proud/polite to some offers of help and is now not responding to calls on his mobile phone. Could you give us a description at all please?

Ruth, Having never met Simon I can only echo the above sentiments. He was obviously devoted to his beloved Sheffield United as the many of his posts on the football thread will testify. He was a fine and at times witty contributor to this forum and will be sorely missed. All I can offer are my sincerest condolences and deepest sympathy to you and your family's very sad loss. RIP SimonM.

Err... midnight?

Arsenal have just announced that they are very close to re-signing their former player and record goal scorer Thierry Henry. Not to be outdone in a similar bid local rivals Tottenham Hotspur have just announced that they will be re-signing their own goal scoring legend Jimmy Greaves.

SE22 Bob. Xmas Eve. From what I've heard it was a big punch up between drinkers from Boho and The Bishop.

Very nice thank you Parkdrive and I'm hoping you and your family did too. Now, does anyone think it's possible for a team in Scotland to emerge and break up the stranglehold that Celtic and Rangers have on SPL? No team since Aberdeen managed by Alex Ferguson have been able to do so since the early 80s. Anyone? Edited to say early 80s instead of late 70s. Any takers? Thought not.
