United have been beneficiaries of "idiosyncratic" referees many times in the past, as have most clubs, so thats no excuse. They were expected, or they expected, to win this game and didn't. Makes the title race interesting especially with Citeh in the mix, albeit having played 2 more games than the Arsenal and the Mancs. The win against CSKA Fulham was most enjoyable, especially the manner of the win.

Darn. A dull match would have been compensated for. Eneded up in the CPT as no show at the Actress.

I'm a gooner, and feeling very chuffed indeed. Mainly because United dropped points again last night. Hopefully we can pick another 3 up tonight, and its game on for the rest of the season! Citeh's form is starting to worry me though, especially considering we've got them in a few days!

If we play at our best we should fear no team. Bit that's just the problem with the Arsenal, we play great one week and indifferent the next. The league will be won by a fairly mediocre team no matter who wins it. I can't remember a poorer Premier League than this season.

Utd have still got to play Chelsea twice plus Arsenal, Liverpool and Spurs away so will drop more points, should be close come the end of the season.


Palace conceded a penalty in the 5th minute of injury time at Bristol yesterday - gutted. I can now look forward to a trip to Millwall v Palace on New Years Day, sure they will give us a nice warm welcome.

Hmmmm..... you're including yourselves in that assessment? I think this season is much more exciting as there are more teams in the mix and not just the same two in contention as has been the case year in year out. Looking at the Premiership at the moment it's possible that any one of five teams could win it.

I have to say that Spurs have been one of the bright lights this season. While some of the top teams might have lost a bit of quality, Spurs have stepped up and for the neutral they been many people's favourite team to watch.

Those Liverpool players should be ashamed of themselves, they appear to have given up or be actively trying to shift the blame to anywhere but their door. And the crowd could have got behind them a bit as well - it sounded like a training match.


Truly a club in bother.

      Chango - New local gem alert!

      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."

      You've got a point.  Thinking Leyland and Screwfix too but this felt different.
