As per my request to MM, please define ?sectarian? and link it back to any of my comments that exemplify the definitions.

Keef - it would be great if we could keep it to football... but was there any need for him to post such cr*p?

Am I supposed to just sit and let them label me sectarian and racist and yet have no evidence to back that up?

It is far too easy for people to throw these slurs around without challenge.

Doesn't change the fact that keef is right


Emerson - he was teasing you about how bad your predictions were for the weekend (and for the record they were shocking - but I doubt either you or I care after yesterday's results) - but there was no need to resurrect that argument again.


So stick to the football - ir doesn't matter what was said over a week ago, let it lie

well IF anyone has been banned before they would be silly to risk getting banned again


and IF someone else hasn't had a ban before, it would be a shame to see it happen. But I'm not going to let the football thread descend into that name-calling nonsense again


so anyone tempted , leave any sectarian disagreements in the past. Capiche?

What are Man U missing? An on form Rooney obviously... do they have the strength in their squad to go all the way?

They ran Chelski close last season, but I am not sure if they can do it again... are the suffering from Liverpool-itis and drawing too many games so early on?

Too early, maybe, to write them off. But they don't have that aura about them anymore, but then nor do Chelski, or Arsenal, or anybody else for that matter. Most teams are overly reliant on a couple of players and if they aren't in the strating line up OR don't perform, they look average. I personally don't think they're the force they were when we had royal battles with them in the late 90's and early noughties, but nor are we.

For me Liverpool, United, Chelsea and Arsenal have weaker teams than they have had for a long time. Whilst the chasers have beefed up their line-ups to close the gap that has been helped by the gradual drift of the very elite from England. I think that drift will continue particularly to Spain if Madrid and Barcelona agree to share more of the TV money with rest of La Liga.


I'd expect PL to remain the most exciting but I fear the heyday of the PL has passed.

Call me biased but I'm going to say Arsenal look stronger than any of the last 4 seasons - and with the current crop of youngsters all maturing the trend for this club is up. That doesn't mean we will win anything of course but I'm more optimistic that I have been in recent years

We certainly have a bit more steel, but not sure that will be sufficient to clinch anything this time round. Too many injuries have been a concern. If we'd have won our games gainst Toon and WBA w'd be four points clear. I didn't expect us to beat Chelski, but the others were home bankers in my eyes.

Good job it was only a friendly. At least some of the kids got an outing. I think we can learn a lot from this game. For me Gareth Barry's time is up in an England shirt. The big plus was Andy Carroll's assured performance and Peter Crouch coming on and doing what he does best in an England shirt, sticking the ball in the net.
How hacked off are Liverppol with the FA after Stevie G picks up a knock which will put him out for around a month. If an Arsenal player had been injured I'd have been very put out. Same old FA, no consideration for the clubs that pay the wages. Mind you not happy that Nasri played 90 minutes just before the big game on Saturday.

Fulham 2 v Man City 1 (Hughes wants it more than Mancini)

Sunderland 0 v Everton 1 (Black Cats get reality check)

In the aftermath of the debacle at WEmbley on Wednesday night, Terry Venables yet again reveerts to the tired argument that its all the fault of Johnny Foreigner, too many foreign imports bad for the national game bullshit. We've heard it all before. If he was as good as he thinks he is, he would admit that the failure in this country to take on the coaching and training methods used with geat success abroad is the problem, not foreign players. Lazy and lame excuse trotted out every time England fail to live up to the hype whipped up by the media. Can't wait for Euro 2012!!!

I like Terry but there is a distinct lack of coaches in this country compared to abroad. Our players can only learn from Johnny Foreigner's techniques. They tend not to drink either which is always good if you're an athlete.

Well. A fair few 'foreighn voices' think that England should try and play to the strengths of the Premiership/English game and going 'continental' is soooooooo yesterday....and been proved pretty much not enough to push England to the top tier. I think they have a point.

    • 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
