It is scary that Man U and Arsenal both have very young players in their squads! I genuinely think Chelsea's time at the top won't last long, and they'll be dropping down the table in the next few years...


Liverpool are the eternal 3rd/4th team, and I just hope that soon we can get the extra couple of players to take us that little extra step! We're not far off, and have had great spells this season, but the usual old inconsistancy always haunts us.


With regards champs league, I don't know what to say about Tuesday, I don't really think any team has an advantage as I fully expect Arsenal to score... It's just whether we can keep them to scoring one and put a couple away ourselves...

My daughter went to the youth FA cup final last night. Chelsea had two goals disallowed so the 1-1 score doesn't really show the whole picture. I think they have a fine youth line-up in the wings.

Yeah, we're not doing well at hanging on to players, I fear for Newton. Every time we get someone good, someone like Fergie 'expresses an interest' which can have a horribly unsettling effect on someone, as we saw in the Reo-Coker episode.

Pity, the boy's got talent, but I don't want anyone in the side who doesn't want to be there.


Newton's more mature, but it feels like only a matter of time before someone will make an offer the board won't refuse.

Our biscuit magnate didn't hang around long either.


...and because I can't help my pedantry, I think Lampard was in the senior squad too.


Whatever happened to the likes of Newton (Adam) and Iriekpen, who looked pretty good in that side too.

      Injured fox on Crawthew Grove

      By Sue · Posted

      Thanks TWB, that is all really useful. However, if  memory serves, The Fox Project actually directed me to The Fox Angels when I phoned them, and had no facilities in this area for sending anybody out themselves. They seem to be based in Tunbridge Wells. The Greenwich Wildlife Network also just suggests other organisations who may help in certain situations. To the best of my knowledge, however, for situations involving foxes, including injured or ill  foxes, Fox Angels are the only people who have someone available very locally who can come out virtually immediately (I waited maybe half an hour after I phoned them). The person who came had all the necessary equipment to move the fox, was very gentle and caring, and took the fox to a local vet (it sadly died). It's possible that if you phoned a local vet they would help, if you could get the fox there. The RSPCA has guidelines on what to do if you find an  animal in need,  however although they have recently had a campaign on this (and sent me a badge and a copy of the guidelines on a pocket sized card) I can't find them online. I attach a photo. Don't know if the QR code would work from a photo.

      Austin's furniture store, Peckham

      By SueJM · Posted

      My mum (91 years young!) well remembers going to Austin's as a child, which she described as an 'Aladdin's Cave'!  She absolutely loved it - and is still a shopping fiend to this day (I 'blame' Austin's 😉). Going back up Peckham Rye, passing Austin's on your right hand-side, just past Phillips Walk (so not far from Austin's at all), I believe there was a British Relay Wireless shop - this would have been in the late 1930s/early 1940s.  Does anyone know anything about this? My grandad (my mum's dad) used to manage it; it was severely damaged in The Blitz - but I am having trouble locating it.  Mum's memory is dim (she was 6 at the time); she originally thought it was in Rye Lane, but we think now it was in Peckham Rye just up from Phillips Walk (originally Phillips Road).

      Thanks everyone, this will need to be reported again as the fox was still mobile and walking down the road when last seen... hopefully someone will spot and report.
