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.

    • My understanding is the "free event" is 100% Gala, nothing to do with the council. Obviously Gala will still make money from the food & drink that they are trying to coerce punters into buying on their social media posts. Their costs will be negligible due to already having the infrastructure in place for Gala. So Gala are trying to appear community minded by providing this "free event", but the real goal is to set a precedent for a fourth day's festival - which surely no one could possibly object to?!? - in preparation for applying (again) for two three-day festivals spread over two weekends. It's only another two days, right, and the site & equipment is already there, so why would anyone object?!? More money for the council, much more money for Gala, win-win right? But yet another week of our park taken away from us, too, and another 18,000 people trampling & littering the park, and another week of disturbance for the native birds & wildlife...
    • Meson Don Felipe on The Cut was my go to place for many years. Though it's now many years since I was there. 10-15 minute walk from the Tate. If you go can you tell me what it's like nowadays?
    • Doubt you would have got much change out of £150.00 for battery and certainly having forked out for it, best to use your car. I recently sold  my car via webuyanycar.com - very pleasant experience & was roughly what I was expecting. Pop your bangers reg jnto their website to get an idea of price - they do send e mails once a fortnight/month just as an aid for you. Easy enough to delete - don’t even have to read valuation. They literally buy any car - if you can’t get it to them, they will charge you to get it there or recommend a co that will do it for you. Must say, mine was a 2014 reg and whilst a bit suspicious, paid extra to get money into my account as needed it for next car but was assured funds had I not gone down route I took would be in my account within 5 days. I now live in the country - every time I have been back to Dulwich and surrounding area, normally get a fine for driving at wrong time or parking at  wrong time so if I drive now, park in West or East Dulwich and do everything else by public transport and walking.  Were I still to be living in ED then before I left was pondering this very issue but since I have been back regularly for health reason I no longer drive but take the train and then buses, walk or Uber. Much cheaper than running a car and had I stayed, that would have been the course I would have taken. I don’t go out everyday, have an allotment or job to go to or family so in my case, would be cheaper not to have a car.  Was truely shocked   at the cost of second hand cars…..but where I now live only has a smattering of buses so no choice but to have wheels to get from A to B etc.          
    • If you don't use the car often then suggest disconnect the battery between use by undoing the earth (negative / minus sign) cable from the battery and the battery will then last longer between use. Remember, central locking, alarm, clock, etc won't work with battery disconnected and wit ours I have to lock the doors with central locking before disconnecting battery as only have key on one door (leave bonnet open before locking doors). Hope this helps
