No, no, no Ruffers! You've got it all wrong we just LAUGH at City.


Anna, Merde not demeaning but 'bin dippers' is? Seems like double standards to me...


Oh and before you all jump on Ronaldo for diving (not an uncommon occurence and I'm not defending it also see Torres, Drogba et al) I was following the games on the BBC text service and they were saying that noone from United appealed for a penalty, not even Ronaldo.

Sandperson, I remember being at a derby match at Anfield some years back, and there were 2 Everton fans in the kop sticking out like a sore thumb. Everton won 1-0, and they stood and cheered the goal, and I remember being really suprised how friendly the banter was. You wouldn't get that at a Glasgow derby! ;-)

The Merseyside derby is one that's often talked about. Some people say it's dead friendly and others will tell you it's the most hostile derby played.


The thing is, up there is half the family can be blue and the other half red, which is why I guess you'll see a red shirt amongst a sea of blue and not witness too many problems. That said - I wouldn't do it.

Not as much as we laugh at ourselves I suspect. While I was reassured by the loss at Brighton that we weren't going to become some kind of clinical professional organisation with our new found wealth I smiled less at the Wigan score.


For anyone who did see the game, or will see it on MOTD2, this quote from bbc text commentary re the penalty is brilliant


1646: "And people said building the JJB on an ancient trampoline burial ground wouldn't have any consequences."

Very happy with that result. 6 from 6 and Robbie off the mark.


WTF is that goal celebration all about? He reallys needs to bin that one off.


"Robbie Keane, Robbie Keane, Robbie Keane, Robbie Keane. His name's not f***** Keano!! Robbie Keane".

    • This is simply untrue. The area is not 2/3 storeys maximum. Hambledon Court is on the other side of tracks from the Jewson site on Burrow Rd, is 8 storeys, and is barely known (let alone bothersome) to most people in East Dulwich. Felbridge House, Petworth House etc on the opposite side of the station from the new development are all 5 storeys tall. East Dulwich Charter (which neighbours the new development) is itself 4-5 storeys (depending on which block you're talking about). What's more, Hambledon Court was finished in about 1978 iirc and no-one has built anything similar around here since then - so the "slippery slope" "genie in the bottle" argument doesn't work either. You can't simultaneously argue that Southwark is too slow in approving new construction but also suggest this will lead to a flood of new high-rise housing! At current rates of approval, we can expect our next 8 storey building to arrive in...2072!
    • I checked - the Hanway Street place was Mandeer - it moved to New Oxford Street I think and was replaced by Hakkasan - very different prices. 
    • Suppose it depends on how many Christmas cards from family and friends you’re waiting to receive. It’s been the Christmas period so surely give the post delivery service some leeway. Like Sue I’ve not posted off so many this year but some I still write letters to  e.g my late mum’s cousins and other family  but hey ho that’s something I do and enjoy.  I used to hand deliver Christmas cards to a lot of neighbours on my street but gave up this year as realised that most of them I don’t see or speak to and can only count on a few to call a true friend or neighbour.
