Err, actually no they're not old chap. Acording ITV football stats the following is true:


Sheffield United - Average attendance 24763

Leeds United - Avergae attendance 25014

http://itv.stats.football365.com/dom/ENG/D2/attend.html


Oh well, I'm sure it'll be no consolation when we kick your arse next season. Hulse might even be fit by then. ;-)

after all of that, all I can say is....phew


I thought the ref in the Liverpool Man U game was pretty impressive. Less so in the case of Wile for the Arsenal Chelsea game


Neither game was much cop but that wasn't too much of a surprise as these things are inevitably close. I thought both could have been draws without too many complaints from any fans so commiserations to Liverpool/Chelsea fans


(all that said John Terry is the most enormous pain in the hole and should have been off the pitch long before that injury)

Terry is a knob, and I hope he loses the England captaincy.


Didn't see any footy yesterday as I was rehearsing... Glad I missed it all really.


The games must have been tight, as all MOTD2 could think of to talk about for Liverpool was Torres' defending... He's a bloody striker Alan!!!!


They did also say Gerrard was playing too deep, but I can't comment on that not having seen it.


Anyway, guess we're still in the race, but have a mountain to climb.

I'm happy with the Sundays result, but I thought Ade's goal was perfectly sound, but hey ho. I thought Eboue did the usual headless chicken impression (sort him out Arsene, for gods sake, he is the antithesis of everything we are trying to achieve. Her has a big heart, bit a small brain), and Terry was his usual brainless self. What else can you expect from a product of inbreeding?


Pool's performance was strange, almost as if they were scared to play. Kuyt was way under par, as was Torres ( and not because, as Hansen would have us believe, Ferdinand was so good). Babel should have started, but live and learn Rafa. Pool better keep an eye on the toffees as they seem to be making progress without anyone making too much of it.


Bring on Spuds for the early kick off next saturday.

Tottenham finally got their first away win of the season at the weekend at Portsmouth and blimey a clean sheet too! Now we're up against Man City tonight who haven't lost at home yet in the quarter-final of the League Cup and although we beat them a couple of weeks ago at White Hart Lane tonight could be a little more difficult. Oh! and we're away to the Gooners at the weekend...even more bloody difficult.

I watched the not so "Super Sunday" from the bar in the CPT with my Liverpool daft niece whose vocal encouragement of the Reds could probably be heard in the Castle up the road to the bemusement of a few others around us. At least it was more entertaining than the football on offer.

The funny thing is, people on here probably think you're exaggerating... He is not!


Sorry I missed you guys, will have to watch a match with you both soon, she is great value! >:D<

Good honest English Northern Club 2 - Soft Southern Foreign Fancy Dans 3. (This is how most pundits would love to describe the 2 teams)


Mark Hughes as is his way decided to focus on the fact that, according to him, we spend loads of money on our youth players. Surprisingly he chose to ignore that the fact that he had been beaten by our second string of 10 men. Gracious as always, I suppose I shouldn't expect anything else from someone who played for Fergusmoan for so long, some of his less endearing habits have clearly rubbed off.

Something tells me that if Liverpool win tonight, those balls might be heated to ensure that the semi finals are another "Grand Slam" night. Good old Mr Murdoch.......


Local derby anyone?


Everton v Liverpool and Arsenal v Tottenham. Or maybe it will be just one Northern team with three Southern.

      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
