No apologies necessary. Tottenham are crap at the moment and Blackburn are playing really well with both of their strikers really firing on all cylinders. So even I don't hold out much hope on this one.


Birmingham 1 Wigan 1

Chelsea 2 Man City 1

Man U 3 Boro 0

Portsmouth 2 West Ham 0

Reading 2 Newcastle 2

Sunderland 2 Fulham 0

Bolton 0 Villa 3

Derby 0 Everton 2

Liverpool 2 Arsenal 2

Spurs 1 Blackburn 2 (doom and gloom)

I am just hoping that after last night's amazing dispay at the Emirates, and a hard game on Sunday at Anfield, Arsenal will be feeling deflated and out-of-sorts for a mere Carling Cup clash in Sheffield on Wednesday....


Well I can hope can't I? :))

Gooners rejoice, there is no other team on the planet playing football on our level. Once again Arsey shows the world just what he can do with a blend of youth, skill, and maturity. Long may his reign contintune at Ashburton Grove. The man is a gem, a well educated and erudite gem ( eat your heart out Alex Fergusmoan!!!)

But Simon we will be playing our second team of toddlers so they will be very fresh!

he is probably good enough to stabilise them and avoid relegation. Just. And even then only maybe


Not sure who else is around who would take the job and do better anyway


There must be some unknowns in the background who are better then the usual suspects when a managerial vacancy came up. Imagine when Graham went from Arsenal if we chose only from the available crop of British Managers.. heaven help us


Then again, the FAI tried to be bold with Stan and look where that got them,...

Obviously I'm feeling rather gutted today with the way things have been going on at Tottenham Hotspur but Martin Jol's sacking was always going to happen once the board started courting Juande Ramos back in August. I also feel very sorry for Chris Houghton who has been at the club man and boy since 1977. I'm certain that Martin Jol will have success elsewhere and he will be in great demand. He's an excellent coach and a very decent man. I wish them both the very best of luck.

In spite of the fact that I'm a gooner, I think Jol has been treated disgracefully, but as this is the Spuds Board we are talking about, I'm not surprised. I hope the guy gets a good job and comes back to haunt the morons that make up the Spuds board of directors, he deserves it. He has managed to maintain his dignity throughout this whole shambolic episode, which is more than can be said of the idiots on the board.

    • It's even worse than it used to be. The only vaguely good thing about the garden is that at least you can see some real foliage from trees in the neighbouring gardens.
    • "The Wood House is a sad apology for a pub" - sad to hear that hasn't changed. Youngs strike again
    • There used to be a flock of long tailed tits in the area up East Dulwich Grove past the health centre (going from ED) . No idea if they are still around there. Herons in Peckham Rye Park near the pond (and various ducks and geese) . I agree Merlin is a great app, better than other bird identification apps I have tried . You could join the RSPB? They have a good and informative quarterly magazine.  If you have a garden or a balcony, deffo put out feeders if you can. Different kinds of  feeders and food suit different birds. Vine House Farm is a great source of bird food (and feeders),  particularly if you have space to store it (guarded from mice!) in bulk. Good quality,  and speedy free delivery with no minimum order requirement. I don't have any connection with them, in case I sound like an ad! https://www.vinehousefarm.co.uk/  
    • Indeed. But from ED, you can more easily get to Sydenham Woods from Cox's Walk (unless you have mobility problems, as it's a fairly long steepish walk from the road to that entrance). And unfortunately (given its excellent position very near one of the entrances to  the woods, where you can also easily  park)  The Wood House is a sad apology for a pub, with AstroTurf and plastic shrubs in the "garden" 😭 I always liked  Crystal Palace, even before it became gentrified. It   used to be considered so down market it took to calling itself Upper Norwood, with the emphasis on the "Upper", in a bid to improve its image. Or maybe that was just the estate agents.   How things change.
