Exactly right! I listened to it on the radio and it sounded like fantastic game. End to end stuff. Cashley Hole should have been sent off and Lampard should have been booked as well. The referee Mike Riley bottled it (again). I only wish I'd been there or at least seen it in the pub. I was so glad when they took Joe Cole off as he sounded like he was having a blinder scoring two and making another.

Ronaldo is continuing to do the business with Man Ushited and has passed the late great George Best's 40 year old goal scoring record for a season. Some of you may not like them much but they continue to play great football and you've got to hand it to the lad who already is looking like the Player of the Year again.

Lots of important games coming up and the Premiership is looking like it is going right to the wire. The Easter Bank Holiday weekend's results will prove crucial for the top four.

Walcott is sort of a new face, he's never really played for the senior squad properly, and is a far better player now. I am actually pleased to see that Owen is still called up, he doesn't deserve to lose his place just because Newcastle are rubbish... Wonder where if'll be next season...

Sounds like Darren Bent is starting to show his class, BBC say he came of the bench and turned te whole game scoring 1 and setting up the second. I hope his fortunes change, I rate him. Will be interesting to see if Spurs keep him as their number 3 striker, or if he'll end up somewhere else... Like at West Ham with Curbishly.

When we beat the arch enemy? Yes it is!


I'm wondering if "Ronaldoooooooo" is heard enough nowadays to go in TV catchphrase thread.


On the Darren Bent subject .... I've been sent a list of the top 50 highest paid players in the world ... and he's in it. He's on ?95k a bloody week ... DARREN BENT ..... can this be true?

He was a fool to lose it, especially as it seems to be the current trendy thing for the press and pundits to go on about. However, Torres never should have bloody been booked for asking why everyone was being allowed to foul him, and our boy Mascha wanted to know what the hell was going on... He never went mental til after he'd been booked, and frankly I don't really blame him. Despite all that, I thought we might grab an equaliser, but were always going to be left open whilst we went looking for it.

Big gob ran half the width of the pitch to have (another) go at the ref. Fair play I say. Let it continue. I wouldn't mind seeing a few more yellow cards for this sort of behaviour. Rooney and others at United should get the same treatment at times too. I also didn't think that Torres was fouled any more than say Ronaldo....

What a load of complete and utter bollocks!!! Did anyone actually watch the game or just the biased highlights shown on MOTD??


Yes Mascher should have kept his mouth shut, however Livepool have been used as a scapegoat for the discraceful behaviour of a certain Chelsea player during last week's game. Javier was given a yellow card for a similar tackle that 5 mins later Anderson was given a telling off for. Torres was repetedly hacked down and when he approached the ref for some protection (which the likes of Fergie etc have requested for their "star players") he was shown a yellow card. No wonder Mascherano was incensed. In the circumstances, I think most of us would have acted in the same manner - I know I was livid.


If the rule now is that you will be booked for dissent for simply trying to talk to the ref, there will be a lot of teams down to 9 or 10 men week in week out.


Steve Bennet was a joke and was trying to prove a point given the public slating he'd received following Chelsea's game last week.

Aaaanyway, have to take hats off to Chelsea, and not to have a poke at Arsenal, but credit where it's due, everyone has been talking about Man U and Arsenal in a 2 horse race, and Chelsea have quietly gone about their business and have now emerged as Man U's biggest title rivals, especially given Arsenal's seamaiming fixtures! Don't know who I'd rather see win it now, I'm bloody glad Everton dropped points this weekend though!

Boo


Hoo.


Sean, he was wittering on for the whole game (that he was on for). Surely you noticed all those teeth flashing away? Liverpool were beaten before he got sent off accept the fact that another season has gone by without a league win.

      Franklins is being sold

      By Loutwo · Posted

      I have to say, I too am upset about the passing of DulwichFox. He was a real local character, who unlike me, managed to stick with ED despite all of the nauseous yuppification of the last three decades. R.I.P to foxy    Louisa.

      Has anyone had the front of a terraced house painted?

      By malumbu · Posted

      How long is a piece of string? AI was a bit rubbish on this one, but Checatrade : average cost to paint a house exterior is around £30 per square metre So depends on the size, access, time to put up scaffolding and cost of hiring and building that, surface preparation, and quality of materials.   Checkatrade put it at £2.5 k for average semi, that sounds a little cheap.

      Be careful on the pavements...

      By malumbu · Posted

      Wow what a lot of reactionary stuff going on here.  Even by the high bar set by others on the EDF. So let's start with the title.  I thought wrong season for leaves on the pavement.  A bit late for ice, but it can still happen.  We all know about uneven pavements and tree roots.  Oh my word, perhaps Zombie apocalypse or sink holes.  Those damned Lime bikes?  But no, a four year old. The streets are rightly or wrongly full of kids scooting and cycling to schools in the morning.  Would or could a four year old cause a serious injury hitting an adult, perhaps but unlikely.  I'd rather a child on two wheels on the pavement than a car driving them to school. As said we are judging this on the original post.  We were not there.  We can not speculate. How this is victim (were you really a victim?) blaming, I don't know. How my response, similar to the previous two, is revolting, heavens knows. There is a serious conversation to be had about middle class parents.  My they can be annoying. And similarly for teenagers, adults, in particularly illegal ebikes including delivery riders, on the pavements, There are threads on the latter on here already.   But a four year old?  Really?? PS off to watch Newsnight and some more serious matters.
