Now you know how Arsenal felt at half time on Sunday, Jah.


Sounds familiar and possession counts for nothing at the end of the day.


The team that takes it chances wins and many teams suffer from believing in the new management mantras of "Possession football" and "the team that passes the ball best, blah blah blah" which are the top managerial misconceptions of the moment.


Wenger, Benitez, and Mowbray too, are the main culprits I can think of in thinking that you can win a game without remembering that the point of the game is to create genuine chances and score goals.


Alex Ferguson and Martin O Neill lead the way in the opposing corner.

Manchester United had five shots off target and two shots on target and scored twice, both from outside the box. Two very good finishes I might add. Similarly we had two on target and six off target. We didn't take our chances and they did.

I'm not too bothered though. It's no disgrace to go out of a competition at the quarter-final stage at Old Trafford. Perhaps, now we can concentrate more on cementing a top four finish and maybe a good run in the FA Cup.

They've announced the seeding and we are seeded. Portugal and France not. Potential Group of Death = Portugal/France, Ivory Coast, USA


From BBC "worst case scenario on Friday would arguably see Fabio Capello's side take on France, Ivory Coast and the USA, while a far easier proposition on paper would have England facing Slovenia, Algeria and New Zealand."

Wave Palestinian flags, unions urge Celtic soccer fans at tonights match against Isrealis

"We hope that Celtic fans will join with us in a demonstration of support for a just and lasting peace in Israel/Palestine based on a secure Palestinian homeland living side by side with Israel," Dave Moxham, deputy secretary general of the Scottish Trades Union Congress said in a statement.


Thankfully Celtic have nipped this in the bud, but why on earth would a Scottish Trades Union get involved in this sort of propoganda request? Embarrasing.

      Flu and Covid jabs locally

      Thanks ianr. Does everyone get the same Covid vaccine? Re your other things, I don't think the NHS records  are very joined up in various respects, despite (or because of?) the various NHS and GP apps.

      So what you are saying is that shops encourage shoplifting as it is good for their business?  Rather a curious view. However.... for every stolen good there has to be a market, whether from a shop, burgled house, stolen bike so those buying knock off goods are guilty too.  As you infer. And one size doesn't fit all, petty shop lifting, kids being naughty, those desperate due to poverty - including addicts both to illegal substances and 'legal' including gambling, and those making a business out of it are very different.

      There can be different vaccine versions for different age groups. See eg https://www.nhs.uk/vaccinations/flu-vaccine/ Two weeks after having my two from DL at TJHC I have today a text from TJGP to say free flu vaccine is available for me  at the practice, and asking me to book online (where next appointment offered shows as 13 November). Years ago, when the two practices were still in Melbourne Grove, the GP practice was similarly not aware that I'd already had my flu vaccine at DL.  This time I can see my 9 October Covid one in my NHS online GP Acute Medicines records, and then, at the end of the entries: "Unknown Date "Influenza vaccine (surface antigen, inactivated) suspension for injection 0.5ml pre-filled syringes ..." I'm wondering if this date error is happening to others getting dual vaccinations from the TJ DL, or any other DL branches.  And whether it's turning up in the patient records of any other GP practice.
