Rafa Benitez on why he could not possibly be trying to tap up Dirk Kuyt : "I am the coach and I cannot sign players ? that is for the technical director and the chairman," he said. "I am fine like this ? I can focus on my work on the pitch and that is all. I am the coach, not the manager."

I think he has some limitations. But he deserves his chance at a bigger club, Steve McLaren got the England job on the back of getting to the Uefa Cup Final and Roy Hodgson got the Liverpool job for his success.


Not sure about Villa punching their weight under O Neill. No mention of Leicester, who will never see the same success again.


If you compare Gordon Strachan to Martin O Neill you did not watch Celtic during these times. Worlds apart.


blah blah blah ...

Tough draw for the Bears, but to be honest we're only there for the readies. ?14million again this year will do very nicely.


Looks like Celtic might not even get through tonight 2-0 down at half time. p.s MM - the SPL winner next year doesn't get automatic qualification to the Group Stages of the CL... think we go into the qualifiers straight away.

I vaguely remember being in Kebab & Wine at 4 a.m. one Thursday night many moons ago..


After listening to this pantomime of evasion maybe it is not such a surprise after all that no one in football has had a good word to say about Rafa Benitex since his sacking from Liverpool - http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/europe/8947916.stm

Rafa not surprising me in the slightest there.


So it's City and Liverpool on the Thursday night slog round Europe, playing Sunday every week to play catch up with those around them... Regardless of how they get on in the Champs League it's the playing Tuesday/Wednesday so OK for league games on Saturday which is the big win for Spurs this week.

Aww...they didn't even give you a run for your money. Who are you backing next Mac? Just so I can bet against it.

    • He seemed to me to be fully immersed in the Jeremy Corbyn ethos of the Labour Party. I dint think that (and self describing as a Marxist) would have helped much when Labour was changed under Starmer. There was a purge of people as far left as him that he was lucky to survive once in my opinion.   Stuff like this heavy endorsement of Momentum and Corbyn. It doesn't wash with a party that is in actual government.   https://labourlist.org/2020/04/forward-momentum-weve-launched-to-change-it-from-the-bottom-up/
    • I perceive the problem.simply as spending too much without first shoring up the economy.  If the government had reduced borrowing,  and as much as most hate the idea, reduced government deiartment spending (so called austerity) and not bowed to union pressures for pay rises, then encouraged businesses to grow, extra cash would have entered the coffers and at a later stage when the economy was in a stronger position rises in NI or taxes would have a lesser impact, but instead Reeves turned that on its head by increasing ni which has killed growth, increased prices and shimmied the economy.  What's worse is that the perceived 20 billion black hole has increased to 30 billion in a year. Is there a risk that after 5 years it could be as high as 70 billion ???     
    • That petition is bananas.   If you want a youth centre there pay the landlord the same rent a Londis would and build it yourself or shut the f**k up to be honest. Wasting our MPs time with this trivial nonsense is appalling. If your kids are still out at 1am on a school night you've got bigger problems than vapes and booze and hot sausage rolls. 
    • There used to be a better baker than Gail's on the same site immediately before Gail's pulled their financial muscle.
