Yeah.......you are delirious........what league are Leeds in this year? What was the score in the other 5 minutes! Maybe you only play 85 mins in the lower leagues and I presume you can't afford 11 players.

Wo-there. I was only poking fun at SimonM - something I do often and he does back in good spirits. I have no idea what your problem is but to answer your questions:


League One. Why? Do we have to play my team's better than yours again? I'll probably lose.


0-0 then we had a man sent off in the 9th minute before going on to win. Do you see why that's a good result?


The rest of your sentence makes little sense - are you a Man Utd fan by any chance? In which case I now realise why.

You forgot that (1) Derby's 1st goal was an own goal "scored" by Matt Kilgallon & (2) their second,winning goal was scored by Rob Hulse! (his first for Derby, first since coming back from that dreadful injury he suffered at Chelsea). I watched the game on Sky and we were pretty awful - thank goodness Beatty is back ...So enjoy your *good* weekend >:D

David: I don't think I'll be alone whrn I say that I realise that your comments were said tongue-in-cheek(like the ones you made to me,in fact:X) but some others just don't "get it".

Oh dear..........I don't 'get it'. I get it enough to know 'scum' is a word that implies ignorence. 'People eh'........is that the best defence you can come up with for someone who thinks it's okay to refer to certain other people as scum.............aren't you a person? If so 'tongue in cheek' deserves better than the use of such a crass word. Still if you are happy in your club of those who do 'get it' have fun and enjoy your blinkered vision!


Man U fan who also supports Longford Town, Longford RFC, Leinster, Munster, Ireland, The Lions and Dulwich Hamlet!

Erm...if you support a football club then you kind of expect insults to be thrown at you from supporters of other clubs. It's all part of the fun at most levels.... And he was calling Merde Utd "scum" not their supporters, which to any right-thinking football fan is no more than restrained fair comment...


And heaven knows Leeds supporters get little enough pleasure in life these days....B)

Quite correct on all counts. Ta, Simon.

Long time, no sparring. David really is a lovely chap, you just haven't been introduced properly:


Declan, may I present David who has an interesting line in tweeds.


David, this is Declan who as a Lions supporter, is a man of unparalleled taste.

Come on, David's dirty Leeds and he can't help that! (This is tongue in cheek but I also do think Leeds are dirty).


I notice Anna didn't come to your defense Declan despite being offended by a 'tongue in cheek' bin dippers reference only a few weeks ago. Liverpool fans have short memories (except when it comes to European cup wins.)


Shame about the result on saturday, we were poor but you have to let them one in every five or six just give them hope. ;-)

My goodness that was a game and a half on Saturday. I have never known Anfield like it. Was a fantastic game to be at and I was thoroughly impressed with our performance. Can't wait to get back up there for the Stoke game.


Sunday's Chelsea v United game will be interesting. No Vidic, no Terry. Will Ronaldo be back?


On a separate note, I see that AIG are struggling financially. What's the likelihood of Man United playing with a patch on the front of their shirts in the coming weeks?

Thank you PGC but you may have got the wrong end of the stick regarding my affection for the Lions. The one's I like only play every 4 years, almost always abroad and they rarely win!

      But all those examples sell a wide variety of things,  and mostly they are well spread out along Lordship Lane. These two shops both sell one very specific thing, albeit in different flavours, and are just across the road from each other. I don't think you can compare the distribution of shops in Roman times to the distribution of shops in Lordship Lane in the twenty first century. Well, you can, but it doesn't feel very appropriate. Haa anybody asked the first shop how they feel? Are they happy about the "healthy competition" ?

      ED is included in the 17 August closure set (or just possibly 15 August, depending on which part of the page you trust more) listed at https://metro.co.uk/2025/07/25/full-list-25-poundland-stores-confirmed-close-august-23753048/. Here incidentally are some snippets from their annual reports, at https://find-and-update.company-information.service.gov.uk/company/02495645/filing-history. 2022: " during the period we opened 41 stores and closed 43 loss-making/under-performing stores.  At the period-end we were trading from 821 stores in the UK, IoM and ROI. ... "We renogotiated 82 leases in the year, saving on average 45% versus the prior lease agreement..." 2023: "We also continued to improve our market footprint through sourcing better store locations, opening 53 and closing 51 stores during the year." 2024:  "The ex-Wilco stores acquired in the prior year have formed a core part of this strategy to expand our store network.  We favour quality over quantity and during the period we opened 84 stores and closed 71 loss-making/under-performing ones."
