Yes those old pitches were brutal. So were the tackles that flew in. The skilful players in that era had to be hard men as well. I watched the Big Match a few weeks ago on ITV4. They showed a game at Highbury from 1977. One of the things that struck me was that Peter Shilton wasn't wearing gloves and it was a freezing cold day. The other thing was that a couple of the coaches on the bench were smoking fags. There was a time when fag smoking on the bench was a pre-requisite of a coach, certainly the east european variety. The king of smoking was Cesar Luis Menotti the world cup winning Argentina coach. He chain smoked through every game.

I don't remember no thrashing Mick, maybe you are comparing a 2-0 win over an English team as the equivalent of beating a top Scottish team 10-0..


Thoroughly deserved win for Bayern tonight, great atmosphere, great comeback. Will be very tough 2nd leg as these Germans are no pushovers like that Italian lot they played in last round. But the highlight of the night was the shell shocked Ferguson showing the first signs of age as he admitted he had no idea whether Rooney had injured his left ankle or his right ankle.

Errr, that transcript has been edited SP..


This is the actual interview on Sky after the match, go to 1m 10s for when he is corrected. No big deal really just surprised he started mumbling, 'not sure, not sure' - as he is usually quite defiant and on the ball in these situations: -

Utterly disgraceful performance from Rangers last night. Hopefully it is the kick up the back side some of the players need as they've looked out of sorts the last few games. Although we can't grumble too much at having only lost 2 league games all season.


Uncle Walter will be fine... he's not got a contract, so won't get sacked!!!

      Post Office Lordship Lane is Broken

      By sjsl · Posted

      It's such an uneven provision, I live just west of E Dulwich towards Herne Hill/Dulwich Village and there are four Post Office counters within 10 mins walk max. They are all in local shops and provide a great service.

      DRJ Builders - Highly recommended!

      By GDG · Posted

      Wanted to come on and do a review for DRJ Builders as I know how hard it is to find good quality and reliable builders in the area! David O'Brien and DRJ Builders are more than that - they are an absolutely brilliant building firm who we can highly recommend. We used them to do a side return extension, loft extension and full house renovation in 2016. They did such a great job, we have just used them again to add on a new rear extension to the ground floor in 2025. David is great to work with from start to finish and has a fantastic team of tradespeople who always deliver a very high standard of work. Would highly recommend them. You can get David on 07960 938621.

      Post Office Lordship Lane is Broken

      They do have other lockers where you can drop off parcels, as well as some shops who will take them. If you use the Royal Mail app, or website, you can also arrange for collection of parcels from your house. The service is actually pretty good (and a lot easier than going to the post office). There are a lack of Royal Mail lockers though. Would be good to get some more - perhaps one on North Cross road? They don't need to be outside the Post Office necessarilly.

      Where to recycle shoes & trainers please?

      By womanofdulwich · Posted

      In a similar  vein, are there any charity shops actually taking donations at the moment? ( after the usual post  Christmas chucking out phase, noone would take my things last week, they had too much already).
