I think he's a decent player to be clear but not absolutely convinced last season wasn't a bit of a flash in the pan? The kid needs a break. He's young and still got an awful lot to learn. I wouldn't say I was optimistic. At Spurs we can't afford to be. All depends on who we get in and out of the squad. We shipped in an awful lot of goals last season so the defence needs sorting out. If we can get a decent spine through side then our chances of winning something will improve vastly but I'm not holding my breath.

Me too so I shan't be looking at this thread anymore.

I'm so bored of it I'm not even going to bother to read the article

That's a bit rich coming Julie Burchill.

No. That was another pub 100 yards around the corner.

Bloody shame. I loved it in there. Used have plenty of lock-ins. I reckon it closed around the end of the 80s. Sadly, I can't find any old pix of it, only the refurb into flats.

I'm talking about 1980/81 when I was a regular. Lovely West Indian fella called Alvin used to run it. His missus, a white English woman, can't remember her name, used to make lovely homemade Jamaican patties and serve 'em behind the bar. Had a great jukebox, dart board and pool tables upstairs. There was always half a dozen good pumps of real ale too. Old Peculiar and Fullers ESB were what I used to drink in there then. Great pub. Sadly, long gone I fear.

Does anyone remember the Sailor Prince?

I shall be walking down to ASDA on Rye Lane for my bargains in future. The stroll down there will do me good anyway.

Had several pints of Timothy Taylor's Landlord earlier. I was going to hit the vino with dinner but I think I've had an elegant sufficiency already.

That's reet classy.

It's arrived.

One night I was in there, stuffed my face upstairs and then went downstairs for more drinks. I was already smashed and chatting to a couple of gorgeous girls I knew. A friend offered me a go on his bottle of amyl nitrate. So, inhaling a massive whiff, thinking I was a cool mofo, seconds later up came my dinner. Whoosh! Projectile kebabish. I can't say the girls were too impressed. ;-)

JW also good for a game of arras.

AQM, you seem to have got a bit of bee in your bonnet these past few days. Anyway, Man Of Kent. Went there once about eight years ago. I had an OK time. Didn't like it much though. Haven't been back.

Quick little bus ride DC. I've friends who've been regulars for years. Best pub in Beckenham by a country mile.

The Plough are starting up acoustic nights on Sundays. White Horse in Peckham has the excellent Easycome on Wednesdays.

DC.. Do you mean the Jolly Woodman? Lovely boozer.

Ahem...I guess so. Anyway, I've checked out a couple of Firmino's videos on You Tube and I have to say he looks impressive. Had me swooning in fact. Might be too late if Stirling has a change of heart now.

Rubbish.

Laudanum.

I agree Nigello. The sooner those places on FHR are done up and reopened the better. I reckon a butcher's would work well there.
