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.

    • A bit of a long shot but I'm on the lookout for a portable pop-up counter or podium.   The kind you often see on a high street, used by charities or utility companies to advertise their wares.   I've included a photo to give you the idea. I'm a peckham-based artist and am looking for one for a free (and non-profit) community art project.  It can be in any workable condition and can already have signage on it as we will remove and redecorate ourselves.    Thanks in advance, Linzie
    • No I absolutely did not - that much is clear. Have you read the latest stories about Unite, Len and the hotel in Birmingham? The UK electorate were smart enough to reject a far-left party in 2019, let's hope they are smart enough to reject a far-right party at the next election too. If not we are all doomed.
    • I would also like to add my recommendation for James.  I had taken four names of electricians from the forum - in the order I had read the reviews.  First three no response - even days later. I phoned James this morning. He answered, gave me a time, stuck to it, messaged again 15 mins before arrival.  He fixed my problem on the spot.  Sensible charge out fee. Perfect service.  
    • Most recent polls for the next election suggest it will be a hung parliament, with Reform the largest party by a fair margin. But that is predicated on Reform finding around 300 candidates who are actually electable. Given the number of Reform council candidates who have had to drop out prior to or after the local elections, does that seem likely? Social media is pretty unforgiving when it comes to finding skeletons in cupboards; a retweet or a like seems enough to scupper political ambitions. A few may defect from other parties, but do you think the electorate would really vote for so many brand new MPs from a newish party?  I'm not so sure.
