Agreed. When you think what an awful start he had to his career in English football it's to Harry's credit that he showed patience and stood by him. He was absolutely outstanding last night. Those three saves towards the end were top drawer and world class and ensured we got the three points.

He was a great keeper with PSV Eindhoven before us. I think Harry was on the verge of getting rid of him but he pulled a few good performances out of the bag just in the nick of time and Redknapp gave him his chance. I think he's done the same thing with Pavyluchenko.

On a different note I just hope Spurs don't do their usual thing now of thinking they have somehow achieved something after this victory and going to pot for the rest of the season.

No prblem about Gomes being Brazil's no.1 but Joe Hart is best keeper in PL - come on leaps and bounds since the start of the season.

Really? Given has made quite a few mistakes of late, time Joe was brought home, give Shay a rest

We shall have to see whether they find a buyer for the price they demand. This may just be another set of lies as this I believe is the reason the Bank has given an extention to the Loan deal.


It is a bit strange installing a new Chairman who is a Chelsea fan... we might even have the new Liverpool chairman being the first man to congratulate Abramovich on 2nd May should Chelsea be crowned Champions at Anfield.

Given's a funny one. Great keeper apart from the fact he doesn't come off his line so I keep shouting at him to do that. Then he does, and he's rubbish, and he makes the kind of mistakes he's been making recently. I'd rather he stayed put then we all know where we stand..

    • But all those examples sell a wide variety of things,  and mostly they are well spread out along Lordship Lane. These two shops both sell one very specific thing, albeit in different flavours, and are just across the road from each other. I don't think you can compare the distribution of shops in Roman times to the distribution of shops in Lordship Lane in the twenty first century. Well, you can, but it doesn't feel very appropriate. Haa anybody asked the first shop how they feel? Are they happy about the "healthy competition" ?
    • ED is included in the 17 August closure set (or just possibly 15 August, depending on which part of the page you trust more) listed at https://metro.co.uk/2025/07/25/full-list-25-poundland-stores-confirmed-close-august-23753048/. Here incidentally are some snippets from their annual reports, at https://find-and-update.company-information.service.gov.uk/company/02495645/filing-history. 2022: " during the period we opened 41 stores and closed 43 loss-making/under-performing stores.  At the period-end we were trading from 821 stores in the UK, IoM and ROI. ... "We renogotiated 82 leases in the year, saving on average 45% versus the prior lease agreement..." 2023: "We also continued to improve our market footprint through sourcing better store locations, opening 53 and closing 51 stores during the year." 2024:  "The ex-Wilco stores acquired in the prior year have formed a core part of this strategy to expand our store network.  We favour quality over quantity and during the period we opened 84 stores and closed 71 loss-making/under-performing ones."
    • Ha! After I posted this, I thought of lots more examples. Screwfix and the hardware store? Mrs Robinson and Jumping Bean? Chemists, plant shops, hairdressers...  the list goes on... it's good to have healthy competition  Ooooh! Two cheese shops
    • You've got a point.  Thinking Leyland and Screwfix too but this felt different.
