Read these yeasterday, and thought they were both fair and honest views on the Liverpool / Woy thing.


Phil McNulty Blog


Lawro's column


Think they both highlight where Woy failed, but also where he was let down. Seem fair, and pretty much sum up my feelings on it.


Anyway, all over nw, and lets hope Kenny lives up to the status that he is given at Liverpool. I just hope this isn't similar t "King Kev's" return to Newcastle...

Was at the Emirates yesterday with Sean McG and BellendenBelle.


Firstly, it's easily the best stadium I've ever been to. The views, even from our slightly odd corner position were phenomenal and for mid-Jan the pitch was in superb condition. Arsenal fans were friendly enough but the stereotype of being a bit on the quiet side is indeed true - the atmosphere is a little "subdued" when they aren't playing well.


Leeds played as equals except for the last ten minutes of each half when we were under the cosh. I've seen Leeds play better recently but for the most part, Arsenal were abject. None of their players seem to want it.


A draw was probably a fair result all-in-all and I went away happy if a little deflated that we so nearly had another Premier League scalp for the second season running. Walcott let himself down although I missed the dive itself. Arshavin had a shocker and was on the receiving end of a hell of a lot of abuse from his own fans. The Leeds travelling fans made a LOT of noise as usual. We'll look forward to the replay at Elland Road.

So will berbatov do a Theo and admit it? Unlikely



But gerrard was a straight red for a shocking tackle


None of this is kennys fault btw but you don't need to possess a vivid imagination to paint a picture if Roy was still in charge and these events were playing out in the same way.

Not as many as Rooney, Berbatov ,Nani and previously Forlan, Van Nistleroy, the fake Ronaldo. And they have the neck to point the finger at others.

Not many stand out ties in 4th round. Southampton v ManU has echoes of the 1976 final; Everton v Chelsea looks the most interesting of the all-PL games and Fulham can try and get revenge on Spurs for last year's QF (talking of revenge, have West Ham and Forest met in the Cup since the 1991 semi?).


Happy with Coventry at home - should see us through to 5th round.

I've seen tackles like that, week in week out, commited by all clubs, most go unpunished or get a yellow card. This one was old traffordish. Had a similar taclkle been made by Carrick on Stevie G he wouldn't have walked.

*yawn*


Are you a little sore that Arsenal couldn't get a result yesterday?


If we are going to talk diving there's a long tradition of it from your boys. :)


I thought United played well today. It was a bit of a dull game, which was a shame, but it could have been a banana skin what with Kenny's return etc. Glad to have got it out of the way.

United played well? Really? What game were you watching? As for a long tradition don't make me laugh. Pires maybe, thats about it. The Manc list is a yard long. Same onld Mnacs, old traffordish decisons yet again. Like I said had Carrick felled Stevie G in a similar mannner, he wouldn't have walked. And your yawn is as boring as watching your team, and yep, you've biten once again.

    • 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.
