Yes well done Leeds! keep it up


Ian Porterfield managed Sheffield United for a couple of seasons, tkaing them up 2 divisions. Then when it did not look like he was going to get them promoted instantly to the top level in one season the Board sacked him....Who'd be a manager?!

What is this man on? (?) One minute its melons, the next omelettes....


"The style of how we play is very important. But it is omelettes and eggs. No eggs - no omelettes! It depends on the quality of the eggs. In the supermarket you have class one, two or class three eggs and some are more expensive than others and some give you better omelettes. So when the class one eggs are in Waitrose and you cannot go there, you have a problem."


Jose Mourinho is desperate for Chelsea to scramble a win from somewhere. ::o


This is eggs-actly why I think this bloke is a prize wally! :-S

I laughed during the pre season when all of those silly reporters were once again pulling predictions out of their backsides.

One prediction in particulaar was the "Spurs will finish above Arsenal" line.


I am an Arsenal fan and I quite like Martin Jol but you could also see that Spurs didn't have the necessary players in midfield or defence for the so called experts to come out with such unfounded rubbish.


It is easier when you make up your own mind instead of listening to reporters who really hink Rio Ferdinand is a world class player (he couldn't lace Thuram's boots).

I agree with you Fonson and I'm a Spurs fan. Certainly with all the injuries we had at the beginnning of the season it was always going to be tough for Spurs to make a good start and all the speculation in the press added even more pressure onto Martin Jol. Then the board go and shoot themselves in the foot with their approach to Seville's Juande Ramos and it doesn't look good for Jol's future prospects and adds more pressure onto his shoulders. But, we had a poor start last season too and were in the same position we were this time last year and still ended up fifth.

As for Ferdinand. I've mentioned it before on this thread he's got to be the most over rated centre-half in recent memory. He makes far too many mistakes. Once Jonathan Woodgate and Ledley King are back to full fitness I think they'll be some real healthy competition for his place in England's back four.

Jah Lush, I have watched England on a regular basis since about 1978 when I was 9 years young and it is always the press who seem to pick the England team. People wonder why we didn't qualify for the world cups in '74 and '78.......I know why....We had people like Mick Channon and Mick Mills playing for us whilst others had the likes of Gerd Muller, Johann Cruijff and Michel Platini playing for them. Ferdinand will sadly keep his place.

The press complain about Mclaren but it is they who demanded an English manager and we bloody well got one!!

Yes Gerrard and Lampard should work but it doesn't, be bold and drop Lamps!


We complain about too many foreign players in the pemier league but they have raised our standards. This is probably the best bunch of English players I have known in my time.


How can we expect the great Wenger to buy British when people are asking 30 Million for the likes of Rio.

Look at the Ashley Cole situation....We sell him to Chelsea and get 5 Million plus Gallas and clichey ( a better player) gets his chance.


Do you remember our old FA head of coaching....."Brazil have got it all wrong"......Let's crack on and get it wrong like them.


God help us!!

Agree that Rio will keep his place. I know I may be a biased Liverpool fan, but Rio should have lost his place to a much more reliable (if not quite as "exciting" Carragher! Woodgate is a great player, but can't stay fit, King may have the same curse as Carragher in that he's viewed as versatile, so will never stamp a claim on his obvious best position... He is a good player though, and oh how spurs have missed him!


RE Lamps, yes yes yes drop him!


And a quick word for poor Heskey, I would have LOVED him to have kept his place above Rooney just for one game! Rooney needs to be dropped once, then he might get over himself, get his head down, and be the player we could be if he wasn't such a knob!

      Cllr Williams to stand down

      By HeadNun · Posted

      I never said that. Saying I don’t like some of the rhetoric coming from the left doesn’t mean I approve of Farage et al saying that Afghans being brought here to protect their lives and thank them for their service means there is an incalculable threat to women.    Anything to score a cheap point. It’s pretty pathetic.

      Is Rachel Reeves becoming the new Liz Truss?

      By Rockets · Posted

      To be fair we are as hosed as the majority of other countries post-Covid. The problem is Labour promised way too much and leant in on the we need change and we will deliver it and it was clear to anyone with a modicum of sense that no change was going to happen quickly and actually taking the reigns may have been a massive poison- chalice. As Labour are finding to their cost - there are no easy answers.  A wealth tax seems straightforward but look how Labour have U-turned on elements of non-dom - why? Because the super rich started leaving the country in their droves and whilst we all may want them to pay more tax they already pay a big chunk already and the government saw there was a problem.

      You don’t think there are right-wing politicians fanning this with rhetoric? Really?

      No party is willing to tackle the "elephant in the room" which is the national debt. It is costing the country circa £100 Billion ANNUALLY to service that debt. That is more than the defence and education budgets. That debt burden has to be reduced which in reality means cost cuts. That means cutting back state pensions, index-linked pensions for civil servants and others such as police, NHS etc. It means cutting back on universal credit and cutting the number of people who are claiming benefits.
