I know its a wind up Matthew. But no, you is plain wrong innit - can I direct you to the person on the right with the shades, at Celtic Park, supporting his team. Now he might get the chance to play for them.

He wants to play for Celtic, not Arsenal.

It would be great to get Shay - but many a slip between cup and lip where any transfer to Celtic is concerned.


Good win for the boys last night.....2-0 at home to Utrecht, any dutch team is always dangerous, and a rare clean sheet. 95/1 to win the Europa League......

Indeed... or his appalling behaviour at Birmingham a couple of seasons ago which led to him eventually losing the captaincy. He has been a good player in the past but I think he is well past his sell by date. I can't see how this will work whether on the pitch, in the dressing room or in the stands from the people (the fans) who ultimately pay his wages.

Great game that, how football should be played.


Scholes goal was magnificent, but that Ref must have Man U tattoo'd on his a$re. The same coont that sent off Joe Cole last week. Blatant pen denied when Fulham player hauled to the ground then the Ref trumped that by giving a pen to United. I can find no excuse for that Pen whatsover.

    • 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
