It is a shame about the clashes as it was a cracking game which we dominated until they scored their 2nd when we just fell apart at the back chasing it.


I always laugh at David James but he was superb today and kept Pompey in it.

Hello Declan


I do like football, although I do not understand all the rules. My team is Manchester United and, when in my twenties/thirties I regularly used to attend their matches. At school I had this dreadful crush on George Best (RIP Georgie). In fact I received something like one week's detention because I "engraved" his name on one of the school desks. Does that answer your questions?;-)

For Declan (and me)...hope the rest of you don't mind. In memory of a field genius:

Thank you LM. Reminds me of days gone by. I never even saw him play as I was stuck in the middle of Ireland, but when he left MU I was devastated and I don't use that word lightly. The slightly curious thing was that years later he was just a few feet away from my table in a restaurant in Mayfair as he left with a beauty on his arm. I couldn't nor did I wish to say anything to him. I was glad to see him though.

well neither did I. I was still at school/living at home and my parents were poor. By the time I was working and could afford to attend matches, he had left Man. U.

Me too! Gosh I can totally relate...

A memory to treasure, I'll bet.

Before I leave this thread...one final treat...just watch the way his legs accelerate and manoevre past the other players...http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ytSt7EnHhXc&feature=related

      Any updates? - Sidings East Dulwich on the top of Railway rise

      By beansprout · Posted

      My  understanding is that all developments whatever size, have to have an element of social housing…affordable housing… council housing..No longer sure of percentage but clearly less than years ago.. The point is house builders clearly make a profit or they simply would not  continue building what I refer to as modern  boxes!  Putting housing condensed or what originally was one house with land attached.  Huge development going on in Beckenham - 200 social housing and rest open market.. sited over several houses now demolished… up the road from the park on way into town centre.. might even be completed by now.. haven’t been that way in last year… certainly can’t miss it.. So, for example, let’s say a developer builds houses and flats on a site… social housing I assume would be in a separate block to other flats and I assume house as well. Ie to put it bluntly, away from main site.. Nothing wrong in that at all.  Many years ago, near Borough a developer built flats divided into blocks. . Price range £300/400,000. Social housing was in a different block…. Can’t remember how many… so families , couples etc got a brand new flat with modern kitchen and bathrooms, flooring etc  and could not even keep common parts clean.. trash thrown out and left including out of windows etc..total disregard for community and certainly not  grateful for brand new property and a home.. I hasten to add, not every flat in the social housing sector but certainly a fair few behaved that way.

      Dulwich Pool Discussion

      By Katherty · Posted

      When I've tried to phone Dulwich Leisure Centre reception in recent weeks,  I've been put through to an answerphone and haven't spoken to a person.   Have others found this? Are they not taking calls anymore?

      Urgent call to find Peckham cat

      By Angelina · Posted

      Saw this on Facebook group - seems like he’s known in the area but needs to get to the vet. Hopefully one of the people feeding him can know that he needs help and that the vets are waiting for him
