Hush, ruffers, Mr Terry is a bit of an idol in this household at the mo.


Monday evening my daughter played at Stamford bridge in the Community Challenge Cup. Her friend had an injury so daughter accompanied her to medical room. John Terry popped in to see if she was ok and chatted to the girls. Rather impressive considering Chelsea's victory the day before - bet he was nursing a hangover.

It probably was in England at that time Mick, it was a whole day event for the family...the build-up to the game started in the morning with special cup final editions of programmes, I definitely remember 'It's a Knockout' with opposing fans as the teams, and I'm sure they did a special QofS too...as a kid it was great!*

England might play 3-5-2 at the World Cup? I'm assuming this is a bored journalist making stuff up rather than Capello not being the systematic organised person we were sold. You never know, 3-5-2 might be best for our players but it seems a tad late to start messing..

I know RD - I was alive then too, but the shown live round the world bit, was a load of roobish, unless you mean in English pubs around the world, I guess.

Ouch my head! Good day out. Too much beer. Kidnapped a Chelsea fan at Maida Vale last night. Cannot remember now where we locked him up. Ooops! Some old Pompey hoolies kicked off at Baker St, dogs and helicopters there! Shameful tbh.


Shame about the score. Funniest part of the day was fat coont lampard missing his penalty.


That's it now. Pompey and my swansong. It was good fun but now it is time to go back to the championship. That'll be the last Wembley day out.


Oh, and apparently, Kenwyne Jones sells watches on the beach!

Cribbed this from The Sunday Times website - thoughts on how your club fared this season, I'll start...


Your season out of five: 3.5, but for Wazza's injury things might have been very different.


Player of the season: Wazza by a country mile.


Worst player: Berbaflop...Carrick had a very poor end of season too. Jah, can we return these damaged goods back to the Lane and exchange them for Modric and Bale? ;-)


Best moment: MO's late late late winner against Citeh and the resulting pandemonium, just inches out Paul Scholes late late winner against Citeh at the Council House and the resulting pandemonium, and Wazza's late winner against Citeh in the Carling Cupp semi and the resulting pandemonium.


Worst moment: The week we lost to Chelski and Bayern.


Most annoying opponent: Malcolm Glazer...LUHG

Your season out of five: -1


Player of the season: Pepe Reina who week in week out shows Jamie Carragher how to pass the ball not 15 yards but 60/70 yards onto the foot of the striker


Worst player: Difficult.. but relative to usual standards Gerrard has been a pale shadown of his former self.


Best moment: Beating Everton at Goodison.


Worst moment: The second half capitulation to a struggling Arsenal at Anfield which for me was definately game up for Rafa.. and off the field the death of ex-player Besian Idrizaj at age of 22


Most annoying opponent: Steve Bruce.. for having a brown tongue from you know who

Your season out of five: 4


Player of the season: Barry Ferguson ? probably justified the ludicrous ?1.2m we spent on him. Joe Hart came close pulling off tremendous saves all season ? a far better player now than when he came to us.


Worst player: Seb Larsson was disappointing for a large part of the season.


Best moment: Our unbeaten run ? the attitude and spirit shown by the whole team. Or if I have to pick one moment, Cameron Jerome surprising Reina from 35 yards (and himself, his team mates and Blues fans everywhere).


Worst moment: Losing at Pompey in the FA Cup QF ? didn?t show up that day.


Most annoying opponent: Beside for the V*le. Referees and linesmen ? some very poor decisions, penalties at Anfield and V*le Park, goals not given at home to Chelsea and in the cup at Fratton.

This could be under Things That Have Made Me Laugh; Mourinho on the Inter Barcelona second leg -


"People like to go on about the second game against Barcelona (at Camp Nou) and they like to say that we parked the bus in front of the Barcelona attack but that's not true, we parked a plane in front of Barcelona..."

    • What was he doing on the stage at Glastonbury? Or on the stage at the other concert in Finsbury Park? Grinning like a Cheshire cat whilst pissed and stoned 20 somethings on the promise of free internet sung-- Oh Jeremy Corbyn---  What were his policies for Northern mining towns with no jobs or infrastructure? Free Internet and university places for youngsters. What were his other manifesto pledges? Why all the ambiguity over Brexit?  I didn't like Thatcher, Blair or May or Tony but I respected them as politicians because they stood by what they believed in. I respect all politicians across the board that stick to their principles. Corbyn didn't and its why he got  annihilated at the polls. A socialist, anti imperialist and anti capitalist that said he voted for an imperialist and pro capitalist cabal. He refused to say how he'd vote over and over again until the last knockings. He did so to appease the Islington elite and middle class students he was courting. The same people that were screaming that Brexit was racist. At the same time the EU were holding black and Asian immigrants in refugee camps overseas but not a word on that! Corbyn created and courted a student union protest movement that screamed at and shouted down anyone not on the left . They claimed Starmer and the centre right of labour were tories. He didn't get elected  because he, his movement and policies were unelectable, twice. He turned out not to have the convictions of his politics and died on his own sword.    Reform won't win an election. All the idiots that voted for them to keep out Labour actually enabled Labour. They'll be back voting tory next time.    Farage wouldn't be able to make his millions if he was in power. He's a very devious shyster but I very much doubt he'd actually want the responsibility that governance requires.
    • The purge of hard left members that were part of Corbyn's, Mcdonnel's and Lansmans momentum that purged the party of right wing and centrist members. That's politics. It's what Blair did to win, its what Starmer had to do to win. This country doesn't vote in extreme left or right governments. That's partly why Corbyn lost  We're pretty much a centrist bunch.  It doesn't make it false either. It's an opinion based on the voting patterns, demography and statistics. Can you explain then why former mining constituencies that despise the tories voted for them or abstained rather than vote for Corbyns Labour?  What is the truth then? But he never got elected!!! Why? He should have been binned off there and then. Why he was allowed to hang about is an outrage. I hold him party responsible for the shit show that we've had to endure since. 
    • Depends on what the Barista says doesnt it? There was no physical confrontation with the driver, OP thinks she is being targetted when she isnt. These guys work min wage under strict schedules so give them a break unless they damage your stuff
