Blah, blah blah. Water under the bridge. Cesc'll be doing the same to your lot soon enough. :)


Two nailed on penalties last night, I can't see what Rangers would have ot complain about. You can't raise your foot like that, end of story.

Difference is I and many others would tell him exactly what we think of him, unlike the Mancs, we are not as forgiving or blinkered. I've not forgiven him for all the shit he came out with last summer and he can get on his bike anytime he likes. Rooney may be bigger than your club but nobody is bigger than ours.

I'm amused that Spurs suddenly think they are a world force after having an ok start to the season, and Arsenal fans who are above Spurs, who have lost a few games believe that we are on the edge of a precipice staring into oblivion. It shows what the two sets of fans are used to and tell you a lot about expectations of the fans of both clubs. Admittedly we haven't won the league since 2004 or the FA cup since 2005. But we all know when Spurs last won the league don't we? B)

Something gives me the impression that Rooney will be off in the summer. United have played a blinder here, because if he does go they'll get their money back (and then some). This will then finance some of the debt, however all the manc fans will be pissed off at Wayne for being disloyal and forget that he was only sold to line the Glazer's pockets further.

Wayne "once a blue always a blue" Rooney disloyal????????? Surely not

Does anyone care if England don't get the WC in 2018? I think it's a disgrace that they haven't had it for so long but once again FIFA members bartering means they are likely to lose out. What's worse is that because Panorama are doing an expose on FIFA on Monday night, the BBC are being called disloyal to the cause. FIFA doesn't like it's dirty washing being aired in public and this will be held against England. It seems to me the only way anyone gets the WC is by buying it in one form or another, a game England quite rightly doesn't want to play.
Euro '96 does bring back great memories, and I think it would be nice to have it here. Hopefully by then, we'll have a team that I want to cheer again, as I've lost interest in England, which saddens me. It's not because they're rubbish, I can live with that, so long as they go down fighting. It's the fact that they are a very very unlikable bunch of tossers who don't give two hoots about the 3 lions!

Germany '96, and Argentina '98 are the two that spring to my mind.


Oh, and the nil-nil play off with Italy to qualify for '98.


So basically Sven took the heart out of the lions, and it's not grown back since. A shame that players like Gerrard, Rooney, and the Chelsea scum, will never be remembered for doing anything great at International level.


Okay, so we haven't won anything in several generations, but you still think of Owen, Shearer, Sheringham, Gazza, Liniker, Beckham, and many more, as having had great International careers.

We were on this the other day, and I agree I think we are in the 2nd division of International teams but we used to be involved in some of the best games at most tournaments (Argentina/Poland '86, Camerron/Germany 90, Argentina '98 - just examples in the World Cup) long gone now, just boring grinded results and wimp out exits in the Knockouts.

Is it just rose tinted glasses though? I suspect supporters of most national teams would say their teams were involved in some of the most exciting games of major tournaments since those are the ones they remember.


Unless you support Italy of course. In which case you'll have never seen an exciting match in your life.

I'm beyond caring given FIFAs horrendous curruption. The bottom line is if journalists are going to cost their country the World Cup for being so brazen as to seek out and report corruption I'd arther that than silence and getting it. Of cousres it's a pity, we've brilliant grounds and fans (and many from most competitors live here), It'd be a carnival event and sold out. But no doubt Spain'll get it...again,

Well said, couldn't agree more.

    • We’ve got a gap on the roof of our shed that needs patching  don’t want to buy a huge roll so hoping someone has some leftover  happy to collect/reimburse 
    • I never said I thought it was targeted or deliberate. There also has never been a “stand off” or confrontation, we’ve spoken to them in a friendly manner about it. Our experience is they don’t seem to care. That’s the frustrating thing for us, if someone politely raises a concern at least take a second to reflect. Treat others how you would want to be treated.  I don’t want them to lose their job, far from it. But considering it could cost me a days work to fix any damage, I’m within my right to try prevent it.   
    • The SE22 Evri delivery family are lovely, and always say hello wherever we spot them in the area. We gave them a box of chocolates during Covid as they were working their socks off at Christmas
    • 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.
