Histon are no pushover - top of the conference, managed by Steve Fallon and John Beck, ex Cambridge United captain and manager respectively. Beck took Cambridge to within spitting distance of the old First Division, and I seem to remember a cup tie against Arsenal when a certain D Dublin put Cambridge one up before they eventually lost. Look out, Leeds!

I wonder whether Scolari will still be at the Bridge next season. The results are a bit shoddy and he doesn't have a Plan B.


Liverpool are up there but the brand of football is painful. The main problem is the stopper Jamie Carragher. Carragher plays so deep because of his lack of pace and then demands the rest of the defence and midfield drop back so he is protected. The knock on effect is not enough going forward to pin down the opposition and create strikes on goal.


United have their problems too since Carlos Querez left for Portugal - now without any tactical sense United are finding it extremely tough playing any half decent teams, such as Villa and Everton.


With the Big 3 all having issues, this season will continue to be very tight. I'd say Villa will complete the top 4 for CL qualification as Arsenal are pretty much finished and Wenger has only himself to blame with this crazy policy of nuturing kids rather than building any more titles winning teams.

My Hull mate sent me this from their forum:

Easy way to solve Rory Delap`s throw in threat.... go in hard on him 1st tackle and get him stretchered off.... just kidding really, but would work.


I lve the "just kidding, but" for as we all know, everything before the but in a sentence is bullshit!

    • 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.
