Couldn't agree more Matthew. They are far too close and cosy

with the England team and management. The last world cup the whole nation was thinking WTF is going on and they just bantered with the players and gave Erickson almost no criticism whatsoever until after England were out. I think they're well past their sell date.


Incidentally, anyone here Garth Crooks' insightful analysis on Saturday - "The title race is a 3 horse race - Man U, Chelsea and Arsenal"...Well, No Shite Shirlock!! Not sure what he's doing on there at all...BBC PCness I think

Crooks. At a World Cup in Africa. I'm looking forward to (the end of) his hard hitting questions.

Gerrard off the hook after smashing elbow into Michael Brown last night - means he will be available for United game on Sunday. Hopefully the Reds can come through with no injuries Thursday night versus Lille. Although last night was against a very poor Pompey it will still have boosted confidence for the players to know they can still knock it about at high tempo.

The Ferdinand thing was worse I thought, but still unbelievable Gerrard got off. Amazing how much cheating he does, especially with his inner ear problem that gets worse toward the end of games Liverpool are struggling in (thank you Dara O Brian I think).


While I'm here Inter are looking pretty good, 0-0 but Chelsea aren't looking too likely to me.

The main difference was that the Ferdinand assault was off the ball.


Apart from 5 mins before HT the Italians were always in control at Chelsea last night. Apparently if Inter had not made QF last night they'd have lost a CL spot to the Germans (I think from 2011/12 season). I guess the UEFA co-efficients take into account UEFA Cup / Europa League which the Bundesliga Clubs seem to do quite well in each season whereas the Italians sides rarely make a footprint.

    • He seemed to me to be fully immersed in the Jeremy Corbyn ethos of the Labour Party. I dint think that (and self describing as a Marxist) would have helped much when Labour was changed under Starmer. There was a purge of people as far left as him that he was lucky to survive once in my opinion.   Stuff like this heavy endorsement of Momentum and Corbyn. It doesn't wash with a party that is in actual government.   https://labourlist.org/2020/04/forward-momentum-weve-launched-to-change-it-from-the-bottom-up/
    • I perceive the problem.simply as spending too much without first shoring up the economy.  If the government had reduced borrowing,  and as much as most hate the idea, reduced government deiartment spending (so called austerity) and not bowed to union pressures for pay rises, then encouraged businesses to grow, extra cash would have entered the coffers and at a later stage when the economy was in a stronger position rises in NI or taxes would have a lesser impact, but instead Reeves turned that on its head by increasing ni which has killed growth, increased prices and shimmied the economy.  What's worse is that the perceived 20 billion black hole has increased to 30 billion in a year. Is there a risk that after 5 years it could be as high as 70 billion ???     
    • That petition is bananas.   If you want a youth centre there pay the landlord the same rent a Londis would and build it yourself or shut the f**k up to be honest. Wasting our MPs time with this trivial nonsense is appalling. If your kids are still out at 1am on a school night you've got bigger problems than vapes and booze and hot sausage rolls. 
    • There used to be a better baker than Gail's on the same site immediately before Gail's pulled their financial muscle.
