And. on the subject of televised games, the game to watch tomorrow on Sky is of course Sheffield United v Crystal Palace (now managed by N. Warnock Esq and undefeated in 10 games...). As tomorrow is also my birthday I hope United for once get their act together properly and give Colin a nasty "welcome back!". Shame James Beattie is out for 4-6 weeks but at least Rob Hulse appears to be match-fit again.

Last year the Lads have me a delightful birthday present (admittedly on the day following) when they deservedly beat Arsenal 1-0 - unfortunately the season went somewhat downhill after that....:))

Happy Birthday Simon M:)-D

I hope your Liverpool prediction is wrong :)

[Annasfield]

Keef - I'm confused.... The Inter game is 9 days after the Chelsea game.

"And the mother was breast feeding the baby in full view of the whole bar. Now, I,m not a prude and I understand it may be totally natural, but so is urinating and crapping, and you don't see people doing that in full view of punters drinking in a boozer"

Have you ever eaten in a pub? personally I can't stand seeing people eating in pubs whilst i'm drinking I know it's natural burt so is crapping and pissing etc etc etc

Happy Birthday Simon M. Hope your blades are sharp-shooting today. At least you have our lot down for a draw at Everton. I fear the worst and would be happy to take 1-1. BUT my prediction has to be outrageously hopeful! It is Christmas after all.

A little too optimistic there LG, we won't do them 3 times in a row!!

Happy Bithday Simon, best of luck.

I for one will be at the biggest game of the day, Dulwich Hamlets vs Cray Wanderers promotion spot clash!!

Lets see if we can make it 6 league wins in a row.

Forgive me, but there is huge gulf between pissing, crapping and eating (mind you the way some people eat in public I sometimes wonder). From the tone of your post, I take it you have no problem with breast feeding in public. Well that's ok, but I do. Pubs have never ever been places where kids under drinking age have been taken in my expereince. I've no idea where the daft idea of a" traditional family" pub comes from. This is a poncey modern concept. Pubs are places for adults to have a drink and get away from kids ( I have two, and never took them into pubs, when they are old enough they can go and discover the delights of the pub if they want to).

[Keef]

Okay, this a footy thread, and there is no place for breast feeding on here!!!

Anna, you're right, my mistake :-$

[Peckhamgatecrasher]

I don't know keef - there are some right tits in football.

[Keef]

:)) Very fair point.

[Annasfield]

Did you see the time I posted that?! Far too much beer yesterday me thinks, I don't even remember posting it. ::o

What on earth is going on at White Hart Lane today?

[Peckhamgatecrasher]

Two wins in a row - wonders will never cease. P'raps that Jacket bloke knows what he's doing.

[Keef]

Come on West Ham!!!! Shame Newcastle let the draw go towards the end...

Everton V Arsenal suddenly seems a very important game in the title race....

Ahem! It looks like I wasn't too optimistic! How did the Hamlets do? Come on Arsenal!

[Peckhamgatecrasher]

Wash your mouth out Keef or it's pistols at dawn. You won't hear this very often from me: come on Man U.

[Annasfield]

Yipppeeeee!!!!

Never thought I'd say this, but COME ON EVERTON >:D<

[Peckhamgatecrasher]

May I just point out, we taught Mr Cahill everything he knows!

Had the extreme pleasure of watching him remove his shirt just yards in front of where I was sitting - crass I know, but somewhat delicious.

Bloody Hell, Motherwell captain O'Donnell dies whilst walking off the pitch. Poor poor guy! :(

[East Dulwich Angst]

A very sad day today as Motherwell's captain Phil O'Donnell collapsed & died [bBC link]

[Keef]

Looks like Arsenal have put on a hell of a display in the second half. Surprised Everton have given 4 away, was 4 - 1 a fair scoreline or does it flatter? (I haven't seen it).

[Ladygooner]

Well listening to the commentators at half time we were dead and buried then two superb goals by Eduardo. Then Bendtner got sent off and Adebayor came on - Everton gave away the third goal so easily. 4th by Rosicky after sending off of Arteta. It was entertaining to say the least!

[SimonM]

I just watched the BBC's remake of "The Comedy of Errors" on "Match of the Day" - or Spurs v Reading as they preferred to call it! What amazing entertainment :))

[mockney piers]

hurrah!!!

1-1 at champion hill. terrible terrible football :(
