Rafa transfer fund? Blimey you're trying to pay people to take him off your hands, that's a bit drastic!!!!

that was cheating end of. Doesn't matter about contact/no contact in this instance. He was still in full control of the ball and realised he was getting too close to another Brum defender. Carsley was stupid lunging in as he didn't need to, but how anyone can look to justify that with "intent" is ridiculous.

But there wasn't intent to commit a foul. Intent to commit a foul was McManus against Hearts a couple of weeks back. This challenge was an intent to get the ball, nothing else.

There was absolutely no need for him to go down, he was still in control of the ball. In fact, he didn't just go down, he went up and then down!!!!

Or Carsley assumed N'Gog was going to pull the ball back and dived in to block. N'Gog read his intention and dived over him.

In fairness all of the clubs we support have players who have been guilty of a similar offence in recent years, for example Van Nislerooy, Rooney, Pires, Eduardo, Gerrard, Cole et al. So I think to be fair we shouldn't blow it out of all propotion. As undeyfying as it is, we all know it goes on. If i'm honest the worst I've seen which effected my own club, has to be Rooneys dive to gain a penalty at old trafford when we were on for a 50 game unbeaten run. But hey ho, that's life. Ngog was still out of order. Unfortunately I don't think it will be the last we see of such behaviour.

SP. Setanta folded because of over paying for its EPL rights (if you meant setanta).

      Returning items supplied by medequip

      By Scruffy Mummy · Posted

      I had this same query the other week - Mediquip no longer cover Southwark and I believe the company when bankrupt? Anyway, after some digging, I found the news on the adult social care page of Southwark Council website.  The new supplier of medical equipment that is issued to Southwark residents via an OT from the council or the NHS is Provide Equipment Hub.  I emailed them about returning two items and they did promptly respond and came and picked up the items the following week.  Email them at [email protected] Importantly, they will come and do urgent repairs of equipment like hospital beds.  I'm surprised that Southwark haven't made this change more widely known as it will impact many vulnerable residents.

      Family Photography

      By dianamaru · Posted

      Hello East Dulwich families 👋 I wanted to introduce myself to the community. I’m a professional family & wedding photographer with 14+ years of experience, and I split my time between the US and London throughout the year. I’ll be based in London for the coming weeks and would love to photograph more local families here in East Dulwich. My approach is very relaxed and natural — no stiff posing, no pressure — just real connection, movement, and the beautiful everyday moments that tell your family’s story. I work especially well with kids and parents who feel “awkward” in front of the camera (which honestly is most of us!). Sessions can take place at home, in the park, on your favourite street, or anywhere that feels meaningful to you. The goal is to create images that feel like your life — not a photoshoot. If anyone has been thinking about documenting this season with their children, I’d love to connect, answer questions, or simply share examples of my work. No pressure at all — just happy to be here and meet some neighbours. You can see my work here: https://bluesparkphotography.com/family/ (use the contact page on the site to send me a message if you're interested!).
