I'm just so gutted, not just because we drew, but Man ure manage to piss down my back and tell me it's raining. It's all part of being a supporter no matter who you follow I suppose.

I have to say the Arsenal result clouded my day and whilst I new Man Utd would win and go top, I didn't need them to increas their goal difference by THAT much


If only we could have played Newcastle when they are going through such a bad phase... oh now wait - we did and only drew! Which is our problem at the moment - we should have annihilated at least 3 teams this season but we seem to be very content with missing 20 chances, safe in the knowledge that another one will come along and we'll score from that


Great when it works - not so good in the last 4-5 weeks

Although the team weren't booed off the pitch, there were an awful lot of unhappy fans where I was sitting, I was one of them. Although having said that, I did think there was one positive from the game and that was the performance of Eduardo, who is getting better every time I've seen him play.
I rate that Eduardo very highly. He's a natural finisher. Reminds me of Robbie Fowler before the injuries took their toll. Spurs were crap again. We can't seem to beat anyone in the top four. Haven't beaten Chelsea at Stamford Bridge since 1990. When is this hoodoo going to end? And what the hell did that useless piece of shit Kevin Prince Boeteng think he was doing rugby tackling Joe Cole. Another one of Damien Commolli's crap signings. Bloody useless.
Jah: pretty dismal on saturday eh? How many more f***ing outside the box shots are we going to concede? Boateng is useless he really is. Our midfield looked totally brittle and This was one of those days when I questioned why we don't let Berbatov go. he was just wandering around like a big girls blouse who was making it plainly obvious he doesn't want to be at Spurs whilst at the same time Robbie was running himself into the ground. In my opinion I think Ramos needs to cash in on berbatov and bring in players who want to be at spurs and win.

And me and Atila too. What are those people on ffs?


Sounds like you went to the match Rifleman. I only saw the highlights on MOTD. When is Ramos going to spend some money in the transfer market? Berbatov's body language isn't that good sometimes but while he is an obvious asset to us when he wants to play we should at least hang onto him until the end of the season but I don't think he was helped much in his supply from a very ordinary midfield on Saturday.

Yes i did. Went with my two sons; one a chelsea fan the other a spurs fan. It was boys against men literally in midfield. They had Boateng and O'hara in the centre. O'Hara is a great little prospect; Boateng is a useless ?$&%.

Im afraid Berbatov just didn't look interested. I really feel that he used Spurs as a stepping stone to United and he's showing it. When the ball isn't delivered directly to his feet he doesn't want to know. I think if I was Keane i would want to give him a bloody good beating in the dressing room afterwards cos Keane really does work hard for the cause. I just feel that we will be lucky to finish in the top half this season let alone top 6.

What NUFC did sacking Allardyce was a total nonsense. He inherited a shit team, he couldn't do anything with without spending money and then they sack him just as the transfer window opens. Brilliant. Keegan is a joke. When the going gets tough he'll do what he usually does: resigns. By the sounds of it Ant and Dec are in control of the club.

It's a weird one, are toon fans really so silly as to believe he's the man just because he did well there 11 years ago? The only impresive looking thing he's done since was the progress of Fulham, but that was down to AlFayed's money.


That said, sometimes a man just belongs to a certain club, and at least it'll shut the fans up for a while... What the chairman needs to do is say to the fans "you've got the man you wanted, now shut up and give us time to sort it". Those fans will probably be expecting to storm up and get in the champs league as well as winning the FA Cup now.

So the fans choice, King Kev is back at the Toon and they Love It!!! Well the quality of football can't get any worse that the brand the Toon were producing under Sam "foreigner players are the reason why the English team is so crap" Allardyce. I like Kev, good player, not sure about his management performance but at least he displays passion. I know that's is not a pre-requisite for success but at least it shows you care. Good luck to the Toon (but not against the Arse)

They say never go back but when Kevin Keegan first went back as a manager he did pretty well. Got them playing decent football. Promotion from what was then Division One and into the top four of the Premiership and playing in Europe. But what did he win? F**k all.

This is a man who claims he hasn't watched a football match in four years since he left Man City! One thing Keegan is good at though is extracting money from his Chairman. There's no doubt he'll be given plenty of money to spend in the transfer market otherwise he'll have one of his hissy fits and threaten to quit.

The fans on Tyneside are living cloud cuckoo land. They think they're a big club but they are only through attendances. I can't see this being long-term. If things don't go right for him he'll either walk away or be sacked. I wish their fans luck but can't help thinking it'll all end in tears.

Convened by The Hague Group and co-chaired by the governments of Colombia and South Africa, the Emergency Conference on Palestine brought together 30 states for two days of intensive deliberation — and emerged with a concrete, coordinated six-point plan to restrain Israel’s war machine and uphold international law. States took up the call from their host, Colombian President and Progressive International Council Member Gustavo Petro, who had urged them to be “protagonists together.” Twelve governments signed onto the measures immediately. The rest now have a deadline: 20 September 2025, on the eve of the United Nations General Assembly. The unprecedented six measures commit states to:     Prevent military and dual use exports to Israel.     Refuse Israeli weapons transfers at their ports.     Prevent vessels carrying weapons to Israel under their national flags.     Review all public contracts to prevent public institutions and funds from supporting Israel’s illegal occupation.     Pursue justice for international crimes.     Support universal jurisdiction to hold perpetrators accountable. “We came to Bogotá to make history — and we did,” said Colombian President Gustavo Petro. “Together, we have begun the work of ending the era of impunity. These measures show that we will no longer allow international law to be treated as optional, or Palestinian life as disposable.” The measures are not symbolic. They are grounded in binding obligations under international law — including the International Court of Justice’s July 2024 advisory opinion declaring Israel’s occupation unlawful, and September 2024’s UN General Assembly Resolution ES-10/24, which gave states a 12-month deadline to act. UN Special Rapporteur on the situation of human rights in the occupied Palestinian territory Francesca Albanese called them “a momentous step forward.” “The Hague Group was born to advance international law in an era of impunity,” said South Africa’s Foreign Minister, Ronald Lamola. “The measures adopted in Bogotá show that we are serious — and that coordinated state action is possible.” The response from Washington was swift — and revealing. In a threatening statement to journalists, a US State Department spokesperson accused The Hague Group of “seeking to isolate Israel” and warned that the US would “aggressively defend our interests, our military, and our allies, including Israel, from such coordinated legal and diplomatic” actions. But instead of deterring action, the threats have only clarified the stakes. In Bogotá, states did not flinch. They acted — and they invite the world to join them. The deadline for further states to take up the measures is now two months away. And with it, the pressure is mounting for governments across the world — from Brazil to Ireland, Chile to Spain — to match words with action. As Albanese said, “the clock is now ticking for states — from Europe to the Arab world and beyond — to join them.” This is not a moment to observe. It is a moment to act. Share the Joint Statement from Bogotá and popularise the six measures. Write to your elected representative and your government and demand they sign on before 20 September. History was made in Bogotá. Now, it’s up to all of us to ensure it becomes reality, that Palestinian life is not disposable and international law is not optional. The era of impunity is coming to an end. Palestine is not alone. In solidarity, The Progressive International Secretariat  
    • Most countries charge for entry to museums and galleries, often a different rate for locals (tax payers) and foreign nationals. The National Gallery could do this, also places like the Museums in South Kensington, the British Library and other tax-funded institutions. Many cities abroad add a tourist tax to hotel bills. It means tourists help pay for public services.
    • Having just been to Co-op to redeem a 50p off Co-op members' card voucher on an item that is now 50p more than it was last week, Tesco can't come soon enough
    • Surely that depends on the amount.  It can be quite piffling.
