The only glimmer I can see is that Israel will want to beat Russia and will give them a game. However, even then we'd need to beat Croatia.


I think I'd rather just start building properly for the next wold cup than go to another tournament, scrape through the groups and go out in the quarters.

Now, Now Jah, we are doing what any other fan would do in our position, and please don't say you wouldn't, because I know you would be fibbing!! >:D<

I dunno about you but unless your team has been through some bad times, and we certainly had some in the early and mid 80's with rubbish players, you can't really savour success when it comes. Also it makes, well in my case anyway, for a greater love for your club, don't you think?

>>SimonM - hope you are not too upset after your defeat last night.............<<


How kind of you not to gloat (well not too much anyway!)


Actually not that upset, because we lost to a fantastically talented team. Eduardo's first goal was astonishing; his second goal illustrated why United have shipped so many this season. To be only 1-0 nil down at halftime was something of a triumph/travesty. I think your "toddlers" would defeat 80% of the current premier teams and we'd probably have had a better chance against the "real" Arsenal first squad, ironically enough.


It would be a major, and deserved, achievement I think if Wenger now wins his first Carling Cup with a side totally different to the one that currently looks best equipped to win the Premiership..

Sean (and Anna for that matter), watching footy at home is sh!t. I have sat there before watching matches, and you have no one to argue with about decisions, or to slag off the ref with, or to hug when your team score in the last minute (and surely every Arsenal fan needs that).


If you can't be at the game, football should be watched in the boozer! In fact, in a lot of ways I'd rather watch it at the boozer than see it live.

You know it Jah, what's the point of following a team if you are about as passionate as a wooden rocking horse??

      Councillor McAsh defects to the Greens

      By Blah Blah · Posted

      Morally they should, but we don't actually vote for parties in our electoral system. We vote for a parliamentary (or council) representative. That candidates group together under party unbrellas is irrelevant. We have a 'representative' democracy, not a party political one (if that makes sense). That's where I am on things at the moment. Reform are knocking on the door of the BNP, and using wedge issues to bait emotional rage. The Greens are knocking on the door of the hard left, sweeping up the Corbynista idealists. But it's worth saying that both are only ascending because of the failures of the two main parties and the successive governments they have led. Large parts of the country have been left in economic decline for decades, while city fat cats became uber wealthy. Young people have been screwed over by student loans. Housing is 40 years of commoditisation, removing affordabilty beyond the reach of too many. Decently paid, secure jobs, seem to be a thing of the past. Which of the main parties can people turn to, to fix any of these things, when the main parties are the reason for the mess that has been allowed to evolve? Reform certainly aren't the answer to those things. The Greens may aspire to do something meaningful about some of them, but where will they find the money to pay for it? None of it's easy.

      Yes, but the context is important and the reason.

      That messes up Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland - democracy being based on citizenship not literacy. There's intentionally no one language that campaign materials have to be in.

      TBH if people don't see what is sectarian in the materials linked to above when they read about them, then I don't think me going on about it will help. They speak for themselves.  I don't know how the Greens can justify promising to be a strong voice for one particular religion. Will that pledge hold when it comes to campaigning in East Dulwich (which is majority atheist)? https://censusdata.uk/e02000836-east-dulwich/ts030-religion
