And you, and everybody else who has reacted like you to this whole sorry situation, will rise hugely in my estimation if you all react in the same way that you have to Ramseys broken leg.

Oh Man - me too. Was running line once when a lad's leg went snap - could here it from the other side of the pitch! Ugh!

Nigel de Jong speaks the truth -


""I went for the ball and got the opponent at the end.


"I had no evil intent. If the ball is between me and the opponent, you have to go in full. If you do not then the opponent takes you.


"And if you're scared in a game you get injured yourself."


Wasn't talking about Arsenal, but may as well have been.

Enough already, see previous posts. Lets draw a line under this now.

OOOhhh comic genius at work, a one liner Groucho Marx would be proud of, but then as a spuds or Pompey fan you need a good sense of humour, especially as Pompey will me playing in the dizzying heights of the Championship next season. Now thats funny.

I presume you'll take a passing interest in tomorrow's proceedings. I'd be gutted if we lose but this game's got banana skin writ large all over it.

Wow yet another comic colossus on the forum, yet another gem Oscar Wilde would have been proud of. Do you guys sit up at night toiling over your keyboards for inspiraion for these gems, or does being funny just come naturally. I'm flattered by all the attention from you guys. Group hug anyone?

Well done to Pompey - at least they can salvage something now from a disastrous season. Really disappointed in the way we played, particularly in the final third. Absolutely gutted that the goal was not allowed when the ball had clearly crossed the line before James palmed it out. But by then the game was lost anyway. Come on Reading!

If Arsenal win the league it will be ironic given that they have showed they have no idea how to handle Chelsea or Man United. It seems however they handle the other 18 or so lesser teams better - so far at least.


But they have a fragility that showed today in that they could easily have conceded a late goal. So no Arsenal fan would be confident going into any match that they will actually take their chances and put the match to bed before the final whistle. Having said that, a decent striker and they might have been clear at this stage.

    • And now we have the worst labour government in many many decades who by moving to your position on the right are ushering in a far right reform government. Well done you.
    • You implied he did a good job in your first paragraph when you said you would have hated to see Corbyn lead the country through Covid - the alternative being Johnson, presumably? With the results we all saw. Unite - you have a problem with unions? Who work hard to see that their members get a fair deal in their workplace? How exactly are these people and groups "all as bad as each other"? In what way? Labour "purging their party of the far-left" has given us a weak prime minister who has apparently deserted any "left" (aka caring for other people and having decent moral principles) leanings he ever had. Which is why people appear to be leaving Labour in droves and voting, or intending to vote, Green or Lib Dem or for an independent Left candidate. Starmer has shot himself in the foot, in my opinion. But what would I know. What worked?! I don't know enough about what you are talking about to comment, but "believing" you know the reason someone did something does not make it true. I don't believe that Corbyn ever got "starstruck" or "forgot about his politics", but if you can provide evidence that those things are true, then fair enough. I don't think you can, though.
    • I think you need to get a grip If it's who I am thinking of, she's a young black girl in her twenties, has braids with bright colours through them and - I suspect - works with her father. It's always the same man behind the wheel and he's older than her, always in the same van, so I'm assuming it's a father-daughter combo which, if it is, I think is rather sweet.  They hustle hard in a job that is poorly paid, has little prospects, is relentless and thankless. The fact that they have stuck it out since the pandemic says a lot about them.  I think she's a lovely girl, who's perhaps a little shy - but she'll smile or chat back if you make the effort with her. And I admire her for sticking with that job for so long. Perhaps she's just one of these people who's naturally a bit clumsy or bashes things, the same way some people are heavy on their feet when they walk. But I wouldn't dream of jeopardising her job because she closes the slams the gate and doesn't 'kiss' the ring doorbell with her fingers.  Perhaps she's being passive aggressive because you are. And perhaps she also wishes she got to spend her time worrying about potential damage to her letterbox or her gate.  As for your gate / letterbox - you're talking about hypotheticals. Has there been any damage? No. Then go and live your life and worry about it when it happens.  (apols we have the wrong person, but some of my points still stand). 
    • Greg did an amazing job! He built a cabinet in my living room and added shelving. A lovely guy and perfectionist who goes the extra mile. He really understands what you want and comes up with various options to meet your price range. Would highly recommend!
