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!

    • I don't want to name a shop, but I have twice at this busy time of year had an issue, and yesterday was overcharged when buying a number of small things. If you are using a shop which doesn't give an itemised receipt, or doesn't give a receipt at all, just be aware that it might be a good idea to check that you are not paying over the odds (and if using cash, that you are given the right change for what you handed over). When staff are busy they might make mistakes.
    • As I had a moan on here about the truly abysmal Christmas meal we had at The Cherry Tree last year, I am redressing the balance by saying we had a really excellent Christmas meal at Franklins last night. Every course was absolutely delicious and  really well cooked. The staff were lovely despite being exhausted and run off their feet. In particular, my sea bass was a large portion and cooked to perfection, in stark contrast to the small dried up portion The Cherry Tree provided, from which I was barely able to scrape a teaspoonful of flesh (that is not an exaggeration). And our Franklins meal cost less than half what we paid at The Cherry Tree (to be fair, that was on Christmas Day so the Cherry Tree costs would have been higher, but that doesn't excuse the appalling quality meal). Thank you again to Franklins for restoring our faith in eating out at Christmas!
