OK, he bought them, but they weren't successful. He could have picked up Owen when he came back from Real. He could have tried for Bent this summer - Andy Johnson? Don't get me wrong - I worship Wenger, but there is just that tiny little piece of the footballing jigsaw that he seems to overlook, a sniffer to thunk the ball it the net.

By the way, did anyone watch the Liverpool match (Anna)?


I couldn't believe it earlier when I got home from Reading and read that Carragher ended up with a collapsed lung, and Hypia a broken nose!!! Bloody Roy Keane, he's always been a thugish twat, and now it seems his team are playing like he did!

Hi Keef - yep saw the game. Hypia's broken nose didn't look pleasant, lots of claret. Can't remember what happened to Carra', think it was a knee in the ribs. At first it looked like he wasn't going to come off - can't believe he stayed on as long as he did.


Not wanting to get complacent, but at least we go in tomorrow nights game with an away goal and being at home to Derby on Saturday should mean we won't miss Carra and Stevie too much. I hope I've not jinxxed us now.... Mind you, no locals boys playing is not so good!


Assume you'll be watching the game tomorrow? Was supposed to go, but could only get one ticket and didn't fancy driving home on my own.


Quite glad I've got Voronin in my FFL team >:D<

Indeed we were. But how often does a visiting side get a penalty at Old Trafford? About once in a blue moon I should think. Anyway, I thought we were by far the better side and at least deserved to get a point out of the game. Cracking goal by Nani though.

    • At it's peak I recall 16 Furkin pubs, all brewing their own.    The first pub was the Goose, followed by the Ferret, the wonderful Pheonix, Fox and one other, not necessarily in that order, when I discovered them. I did all 16 on public transport in one day with a group many years ago, if Guinness had a record this would be one, as everyone else would hire a minibus. Reverting to Wiki, it maxed out with 19 home brew pubs, and many more not brewing before the end: chain was established in 1979 by David Bruce as Bruce's Brewery, the Firkin Brewery grew as a chain of mostly brewpubs offering cask ale. It was acquired by Midsummer Leisure in 1988, Stakis Leisure in 1990 and then by Allied Domecq in 1991; by 1995 the chain had 44 pubs, 19 of which brewed beer on site.[1] In 1999, Punch Taverns bought the entire chain and the rights to the Firkin brand,[2] and then sold 110 of the pubs to Bass, leaving 60 Firkin pubs under Punch ownership.[3] The brewery side of the chain was wound up, and in March 2001 Punch announced that the Firkin brand was to be discontinued.[4] 
    • Hello! I’m looking to collect some pallets and MDF boards from anyone in the area who has some and no longer needs them?   It would also be a huge bonus if anyone has a PA sound system I could rent/borrow/buy off them.   Thank you in advance!
    • That was the best "pound shop", a great selection of products, sadly it and the chain went to the wall as they say. 
    • I used to enjoy the 50p shop in Liverpool, it merged with it's sister pound shop in 1999 https://www.msn.com/en-gb/news/newsliverpool/lost-liverpool-shop-never-charged-more-than-50p-for-anything/ar-AA1rB1Z6 According to BoE inflation calculator it would be the £1.60 shop if still around now, although based on the increase in a pint of beer more like the £4 shop, or the reliable mars bar inflation indicator about £3. That of course is the issue with the premise that everything will remain at a certain price.  There were three pound stores in Peckham, one had a strange strap line that many products were a pound or less, so many were over a quid (pre Covid days).
