Keegan has a huge ego, but still feel he has a right to be a bit miffed at Newcastle this time round.


Man City - Yet to be seen, but I really like the look of this Jo, and with Robinho joining him up front I think they will be very dangerous. With the likes of Spurs and Villa not looking that amazing, I think City will be in 5th, and may even nick 4th... Or they may just have a mare!


If this take over all goes through smoothly, then I expect them to buy in January, and buy a mega squad in the summer and really compete next year. I don't like teams buying success, but at the same time, I'd love to see them beat United just for giggles! >:D<



This - althought I'm not sure I'm quite as supportive after his handling of Barton


It could also be argued that he needed to bring some of his methods up to date - although if it turned out that the person doing my scouting for me was Dennis f@@@ing Wise I might reconsider that as well....

I feel a bit sorry for Curbishley and Keegan. Both were managers with their hands tied behind their backs when it came to spending and when it comes football chairman most of them know f**k all about football. They are there to make money for themselves and the shareholders, so unless you have a rich benefactor these days who wants to use your club as he plaything you're pretty much f**ked.

Exactly right Jah! Mike Ashley tried to be the fan that bought the club, but unlike the Blackburn fella in the 90s (Walker? Memory not working), you just can't do it in this day and age! Alan Sugar wouldn't be able to compete financially in this game now, not at the top of the prem anyway.


Feel very sorry for Curbishly.

Sadly you're right. Quite surprised that the Muppets that own Liverpool didn't cash in on Torres on Monday night. Wouldn't surprise me if this happened in Feb. :(:(:(

Exactly! The new owners will want their own man in. I can see the same thing happening to Mark Hughes as what happened to Keegan and Curbishley. They'll bring in players they don't want and get rid of players the manager does want. Hughes will probably have little say in the transfer market and he'll be on his bike whether they sack him or not. I can imagine he had little say in the transfer of Robinho, for instance. You've got to let the manager manage otherwise it's just chaos.

    • Simply, give us a snap election now as the last 12 months in office honestly have not been great in any sense. Let someone else have a go at turning around UK plc before it's too late. At least the last administration had the inflation and unemployment going in the right direction at the END. 
    • Yes but what's the answer, Jazzer? No government can simply walk in and fix the economy - get the bills down, grow it and reduce debt. There is no silver bullet. The public (and the press) wants everything now, everything cheaper, but with better public services and lower taxes.  In the radio and paper, all you ever hear is pundits, MPs, think tanks and economists saying what won't work, but no one seems to know what will work.  I'm genuinely interested to hear what other views people have on here, and what they think will help, or make things worse. 
    • While they struggle with economics of UK plc, collectively we all suffer as a result of their ineptitude. 
    • I’ve tried to find details of surgeries being held before but not found any. The section of the Southwark website that details councillors’ surgeries says that: Your locally elected Councillors will be holding a roving surgery programme in the Dulwich Hill area to enable residents to raise any local issues. Residents will be notified by letter in advance of the date, time and specific streets/roads where the surgery will take place.  Surgeries are not held in August, on Bank Holidays, Easter or in Christmas Week.  Dulwich Hill Ward Councillors I’ve never seen any notification of surgeries being held, including on the DH councillors’ social media accounts. I don’t know if any other residents of Dulwich Hill have? Neighbouring wards all seem to have times and places posted for surgeries.
