Do you remember a few weeks ago, we were dscussing whether or not Ronaldo was/is a team player?


This interiew says it all:




"Guillem Balague: What feeling have you got after the defeat to Germany?



Cristiano Ronaldo: What feeling?



Guillem: The one after being knocked out



Ronaldo: We didn?t expect this. We wanted to continue in the tournament, but we didn?t do enough. We weren?t strong enough


Guillem: The little details were won by Germany. You didn?t seem concentrated enough



Ronaldo: I didn?t do anything wrong. I did what I had to do but the team made mistakes and that is why we lost"


What an outstanding sportsman. (td)

Old news and not happening Keef. Discredited by Spuds yesterday. Now the Pool have put in another ?17m bid for Barry they must have got the extra sponds somewhere........ reckon Crouch to Pompey will complete early next week when PFC go back to training.


Oooh and we signed Ben Saha on loan too - that should signal the end of Nugent.

It'll be undisclosed to save face. Rafa knows he can go for fook all in January. He was lined up on 31st Jan and Rafa pulled out last minute (after we had already offloaded Benjani)


My reckon is ?5-?7m but the fee will be undisclosed when the deal formally goes through!


Personally I'd wait til Jan and take him for fook all on a pre-contract and sign Gudjonseen for this season!!

Which all begs the question, why did we turn down ?9m for him???

I hadn't thought about that until you mentioned it, but yes they are alike aren't they. Same floppy hairstyle and a similar look in the eyes but Arshavin doesn't have the wand of a left foot like Bale has and where was Arshavin in the final against Spain? I barely remember him getting a touch of the ball. He all but disappeared from view.

Love the way news stories hype stuff. Headline saying Liverpool interested in Villa. Of course they are interested, I'm sure a lot of clubs are. Read on slightly and Rafa says he's on the list but it would be difficult. Big story there then! You expect it on back pages, but I'd rather read facts on the bbc website.

I'm finding the summer transfer speculation more and more frustrating. Finding anything based on reality is like that bit at the end of the Crystal Maze where they had to grab hold of gold pieces of paper and not the other kind - or something.


The same names, and posturing by clubs' spokesperson, and denials which turn out to be the opposite - blah blah blah. A pox on all their houses


You finished 2nd, 5th, just above relegation - whatever - next season roll your sleeves up and improve the lot of the club who's badge you have been kissing everytime you scored last year - that's all I ask

T'was from an interview on LFC tv last night. Definitely stuff going on behind the scenes there, but I'm not sure a Torres/Villa partnership would work. Euro 2008 was proof that these two (under the Spanish formation anyway) do not work together. We need someone who Rafa can play when Torres can't. I think G&T relationship worked perfectly well last season and I would question the need to change that by spending ?30+ million on another striker.


Give me David Silva please. (tu)

      GALA 2026

      Hello! My understanding is that the second weekend will NOT be happening this year. The first weekend will go ahead, as in previous years. Tori Griffiths (Labour councillor candidate)

      GALA 2026

      By first mate · Posted

      It says on the Southwark site that the decision on extending the event to two weekends, with a large slice of park inaccessible to the public for over a month, is imminent ( publication due 31January). Does anyone know the decision?

      Scooter for 5 year old

      By H Armitage · Posted

      Hello. My two kids and myself have both used micro scooters for years now (oldest is 10). They are long lasting and you can get spare wheels and parts which is good so I'd recommend them. Ebay will have lots including refurbished ones. We had the bigger size 3 wheel only briefly, the maxi, used it about 1-2 years for scooting to school before child wanted 2 wheels. He's been speedy on 2 wheels since at least age 7. So you're at a tricky age to pick for.  I guess think about her ability and height.

      So where have you both decided on? Made a shortlist yet or even gone? - sure I am not the only one who is keen to know since your posting has certainly thrown up interesting venues or is this in-depth research before early dinner??
