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.

    • Totally agree regarding not supporting chains. Gail’s was fine but last time I went in Feb this year, actually walked out Fayetteville looking at menu and waiting 15 minutes to even get glass of water and not busy at all. Staff gone down hill - sooner it goes the better… Always prefer to support non chains - so many lovely places with good food to choose from with pleasant staff who know about customer service and sadly, non English which says a lot for our culture, pubs are also becoming abit of a hit and miss affair but maybe just unlucky. At the end of the day all about the chef. Still abit unclear where new place is located - is it down the road from Goose Green where parade of shops are before Peckham Rye?  
    • Surely only where the local businesses offer clear advantages, otherwise you are rewarding what should be failure. I want to be served by a better bakery than Gail's, not a worse but local independent one. Certainly give a local independent some time to get the offer right, but don't buy goods which are worse and or more expensive just because the outlet isn't a chain. 
    • Let’s just boycott all chains in favour of local businesses.  Places like Gail’s popping up everywhere has a very damaging impact on small businesses. It’s just the same as the new empanadas place but on a bigger scale. I’ll say it a million times more, we hold the power with our choices. Let’s use our power to look after ourselves and our environment (which includes small local family businesses). And yes, I also love Chacarero.
