I see the Blue sh*te have had their new stadium plan rejected..


So plan B is this bollox from the Everton CEO :


"A shared stadium is perhaps an option if it's affordable. We have to look at where we can raise money, because potentially Liverpool will have to obviously contribute to that, and Liverpool City Council perhaps might need to find some money. Our history is one of creativity and innovation and if we are the first major English club to look at sharing then we're not scared of making those decisions."

> Hart sacked apparently - Ratty?


Apologies - been avoiding this thread because it is utterly tedious and I do not give a toss about Man U Arsenal or Liverpool.


Yes, inevitably Paul Hart, nice guy but clueless manager, has been given the boot. Noises form inside Fratton suggest Avram Grant will take over later today, but all my contacts within the club now play for Tottenham so I do not really have a clue!


Gone off football to be honest! Modern Warfare 2 is taking over my life!

Not to subvert the thread (though likewise give not a shit abou the top 3 arsenal, man u and chelsea, not that anyone talks about Chelsea, but when are you going to help me with those two player spec ops missions. And saw you've been dipping toes into multiplayer at last!!

Funny that isn't it we never get any Chelsea chit chat - as you'd imagine south London would be one of their heartlands but I guess that shows what a mickey mouse club they are even with all those billions they still have a small fanbase.


Tbh SP although it's been great beating Chelsea and Arsenal at Anfield I'd rather knock out a top continental team - probably the only disappointment from 2005 was having a semi final trip to Stamford Bridge rather than the trip/scalp of Bayern Munich. It was such a damp squib being at the Bridge when you consider the rest of the route to winning the CL that season.

I can't stand Chelsea - but they do have a 'propa' and large fanbase that's pretty extensive accross South London (SW especially) and the western side of the South East but their old school fans probably don't by and large p1ss about on middle class internet forums with the 'newbie' fans that tend to inhabit them...Chelsea's plastic newbie fanbase is ironically enough extensively based around Chelsea, Fulham and all of them yuppie areas.....

    • I like empanadas. I don't think Chango is a massive chain - it's got a few stores all in London I believe (stand to be corrected if I've got that wrong). I don't see a problem with them opening on the Lane personally. I really like Chacarero, but that doesn't mean that they should be immune from competition - if they're successful and open a couple more stores, are we then meant to stop supporting them for being a 'chain'?  That opening post does sound a lot like marketing spiel though. Is the OP perhaps connected to the new business I wonder?
    • According to what I can see online, Dynamic Vines and Cave de Bruno sell totally different kinds of wine to each other.  Dynamic Vines  "work with independent winemakers who produce outstanding wine using sustainable practices in the vineyard and minimal intervention in the cellar".  Cave de Bruno specialises in French wines and spirits from small independent producers. So two different USPs, and no doubt two different but overlapping customer bases who can afford these wines. Probably different again to the people mainly  shopping for wine at Majestic or the Co op. On the other hand, the two empanada shops appear on the face of it to be selling virtually identical products. But time will tell, won't it? Let's see how they are both doing in - say - a couple of years' time. Impossible, of course, to compare that with how they would have done if there had been only one of them. I just feel more  sorry for the original one than for  the one which can apparently already afford to have a number of shops in places like Mayfair and Highgate. I'm tempted to buy something there every week, and I don't even like that kind of pastry 🤣
    • Not only can he turn olive oil into Vermouth, but also water into a wine. A true miracle worker.  I wouldn't say a wine shop sells a wide variety of things - and there are two right next to each other.  And once upon a time, upmarket pizza shops were very specific. So were burritos etc. These Argentinian cornish pasties are clearly becoming mainstream; we should consider ourselves lucky to be witnessing this exciting upward trend within our lifetimes and on OUR HIGH STREET. We can tell our grandkids that we remember when there was no internet and no empanadas.  I'm sure that if the family empanada people have a good business head, they'll be able to ride this wave of competition, just like Bruno has. 
    • Very economical. Are you available for events? I've got a gathering of 5000 coming up soon. What could you knock up with two little fishes and five loaves of bread? Cod in breadcrumbs? Fish finger sandwiches? Spanish-style croquetas de bacalao with a Romesco sauce? It's BYOB for beer, so there's no need to worry about that and I've managed to do an unbelievable deal on water and wine. Drop me a DM on here or ask for Dave or Jesus (pronounced 'Hay-Zooze') in The Herne, left hand side of the bar.
