I'm not convinced Liverpool will be fighting for top spot, hope I'm wrong, but unless Torres strikes up an amazing partnership with Kuyt very quickly, it's just not going to happen.... Yet!


I think Man U will be better than last season, and will win again. I think it will be close between Liverpool and Chelsea for 2nd and third, and equally close between Spurs and Arsenal for 4th....


Man U

Liverpool

Chelsea

Arsenal...


Of course on the last day of the season we'll all be amazed that we lost out to Everton *shudder*, Villa and Blackburn for the champs league spots! :-S

Enough of this Premiership malarky.


We all know the real football is played in the lower divisions. As a Leeds fan (*stop laughing at the back*) I am very mcuh looking forward to watching the likes of Heath, Prutton and Beckford on away trips to Leyton Orient, Millwall and Southend. The skill, the passion, the blood, sweat and.....


....oh god just shoot me now and get it over with. I've had enough pain as a Leeds fan over the past five years without this crap!

Leeds United! Oh you poor man...you have my deepest sympathy. God! it must be tough. I have an ex-girlfriend who was a Leeds fan and it's very sad to see such a big club, although hated by so many in the Don Revie days, go into what would look like almost terminal decline.

>>Yes, that potential 15 point deficit is extremely harsh.<<


As a Sheffield United supporter I have always hated Leeds United with a deep passion, exceeded only that held for Sheffield W*dn*sd*y, but on the subject of this 15 point deduction I heartily agree - it is much too harsh. But the scale of the punishment was inevitable given that Leeds is a northern club - a London one would just have been given a derisioy fine of course...

Keef's CPT Allstars :-S


I always tend to forget about them and never make any changes, so doubt I'll do very well. The only one I get in to is the monthly chanel 4 game that a bunch of us have been doing for about 3 years now. Annoyngly the same bloke has won every yar, so we're all determined to beat him!

OK, I have joined as I had a team in a separate league anyway!


As for this coming season. It's Manure for the title, then Chelski, Liverpool and Arsenal in that order. That's a given almost. The more interesting competition is of course for 5th, 6th, 7th, and 8th!


Spurs will be there and I think they are the only definite. Man C have spent but this has been based on videos of players, for instance they bought Giovanni on the basis of a video of a game against Havant and Waterlooville or Bournemouth. Bolton will not be as triky as last year. Newcastle always under achieve and it will be fun to see them do the same this season.


Wet Sham? Maybe, maybe not. Blackburn - lets hope they cease to exist somehow this season. Boro? Going down I hope.


Everton will probably be there unless they get docked points for third party owenrship of Manuel Fernandes (A deal that even H Redknapp said he would not touch with a barge pole). Reading will fade away to nothing this season as will Fulham and the three that come up will go back down (probably by September!)


My bet for the 5-8 places are Tottenham, Everton, Portsmouth and Blackburn (sadly). This is the real competition in the premiership.


Anyone else care to speculate?


Oh yeah, and Southampton will get relegated from the Championship!

      New Empanada Place on LL

      By beansprout · Posted

      Totally agree regarding not supporting chains. Gail’s was fine but last time I went in Feb this year, actually walked out Fayetteville looking at menu and waiting 15 minutes to even get glass of water and not busy at all. Staff gone down hill - sooner it goes the better… Always prefer to support non chains - so many lovely places with good food to choose from with pleasant staff who know about customer service and sadly, non English which says a lot for our culture, pubs are also becoming abit of a hit and miss affair but maybe just unlucky. At the end of the day all about the chef. Still abit unclear where new place is located - is it down the road from Goose Green where parade of shops are before Peckham Rye?

      Surely only where the local businesses offer clear advantages, otherwise you are rewarding what should be failure. I want to be served by a better bakery than Gail's, not a worse but local independent one. Certainly give a local independent some time to get the offer right, but don't buy goods which are worse and or more expensive just because the outlet isn't a chain.

      Let’s just boycott all chains in favour of local businesses.  Places like Gail’s popping up everywhere has a very damaging impact on small businesses. It’s just the same as the new empanadas place but on a bigger scale. I’ll say it a million times more, we hold the power with our choices. Let’s use our power to look after ourselves and our environment (which includes small local family businesses). And yes, I also love Chacarero.
