I witnessed a home reversal from 4-1 up with an hour played to losing 4-6, albeit to a very good Swindon side (Hoddle/Hazard era) on Easter Monday 1993. I have not fully recovered yet.


Edited to say: You omitted Jon Parkin 'evading' the defence three times rfom your list of ridiculous deeds.

Predictably Millwall involved yet again. No surprise there then.

There seems to a small knot of people who are responsible. They must be known to the police via their intelligence gathering operations, so why do these people seem to get away with such behaviour again and again? It's a shame because most Millwall fans are decent and don't deserve to be associated with this nonsense.
Playing devil's advocate, the police make money out of football. They can justified an increased presence at future games based on incidents such as last night, charge clubs more for this presence and make a political case for equipment to deal with such incidents. Also, based on incidents I have witnessed, some of the police enjoy the confrontation.
Its time now to have a completely young England team.,the old lot are has beens.There are thousands of lads to chose from. Just like all the other sports,snooker .darts,etc,etc. Its only a select few that get a look in. Same old faces year in year out. If their was a world cup for sh.....g they.d be supreme.

5-4-1 actually turned out to be quite an attacking formation last night for the Bears.

It meant Whittaker and Broadfoot were able to get forward more and in turn meant Naismith had more freedom to move forward. The Turks didn't look threatening at all (well apart from maybe 10 mins in the second half).

Cracking start to the CL. Would never have thought we'd be joint top with 4 points.... the double header with Valencia will make or break our qualification hopes I think.

Aiden McGeady - that's him. Celtic and Republic of Ireland. (born in Scotland tho:)). Celtic sold him for 9.5m. He lives like a king in Moscow apparently.

And your problem is?


Sometimes decisions go your way, sometimes they don't. We had a couple of poor penalty decision go against us last week against the Arsenal, especially the first one which was a blatant dive by Nasri, but overall Arsenal deserved the win. They were the better side on the night.


Last night Spurs were by far the better side even when we went down to ten men for the last half hour. I'd say one or two of the penalty decisions that went our way were debatable but overall we definitely deserved the win.

    • Corbyn was unelectable - he got trashed by Boris who was a buffoon. It was a good job too because I would have hated to see Corbyn and his rag-tag bunch of far-left university politics backbenchers try to lead the country through Covid.  It is completely understandable why Starmer and the Labour Party want to purge Momentum from within their ranks and Cllr McAsh has fallen victim of that.
