Yeah - like they score about 20 goals a season, all added together.

I wouldn't worry about it Mick as Celtic can only afford Arsenals yesterday men like Hartson and Freddie, also some of the players are midfielders who feed strikers rather than score but I won't let that get in the way of your huge footballing wisdom.

But I thought City had the best fans in the world and all lived local. I bet Dzeko is trying to find that bloke who told him City had the most supporters in Manchester. It was only ?15 to get in last night as well. Maybe as it was a night game they were worried they would miss the last train back to Stockport :))

Actually there was a University that did a study of Utd and City season ticket holders a few years ago. Utd had more season ticket holders in Manchester than City did.


Utd have also had higher crowds than City every single year since 1946, not all Utd fans are Johnny come lateley's, although plenty are of course. Years ago you used to see Liverpool shirts everywhere, then Utd and Arsenal and more recently Chelsea, sure it will change again soon.


Out of interest Emerson where did you grow up, Islington I presume?

To be precise, just up the road from the Angel not too far from Highbury Corner is where I lived when I was small.

We didn't miss you or your posts so feel free to stay away more often

Thanks Jah.


As I said, I really enjoyed the Spurs game. The only disappointment and, I think, the reason that Spurs didn't win was that Bale disappeared a bit. If he'd have played us the way he played Inter we would have been in real trouble. As far as the sending off went I think it was a stupid first tackle and any defender who gets a booking that early has to be very, very careful as it only take one bad decision to get a second yellow. United's defending was superb which was a bonus (and it had to be).


Tonight, for one time only I shall be cheering on Leeds. Shame Beckford isn't still playing for them ;).

    • It worked. Corbyn did similar although not to the same degree. Momentum had a purge too when Corbyn got in. All his political life he opposed the EU but when it came to the crunch he publicly backed them during the referendum. I believe that was to appease the middle classes that he was appealing to. He messed up big time when wooing the middle classes at Glastonbury whilst ignoring his core working class voters up north. They also happened to be leave voters. He got starstruck and forgot about his politics. Corbynmania was thing, a movement but it was also the making of his downfall. For the many and not the few came back and slapped him right in the face. 
    • Nothing to do with the tories overspending whatsoever eh! Blame the last 10/11 years of blatant mismanagement, incompetence and willful deceit on the poor bastards that were left with the fall out of a complete car crash tory government.   One PM after another falling on their sword. Open corruption and piss taking throughout covid and a legacy of huge debt and destruction yet in your view it will be labour's 4 years in power that bankrupts us in 2029.  Another one that must think people are blind and stupid.  Rejoice rejoice. It's a pity he and his fellow clowns were completely annihilated at the ballot box. I mean they were doing so well after all 🙃🙃
    • Where did I say he did a good job? Yup and Corbyn was very close to Len McCluskey and funded by Unite wasn't he...they're all as bad as each other... Labour have to purge their party of the far-left - they're a disaster. Allan Johnson summed it up so well on election night in 2019....  
    • Thank you for the detailed advise @trinidad It is definitely damage we are concerned about. I don’t think Evri would agree to pay the bill to fix our gate or letter box if they were to be damaged as a result of their delivery drivers helper. Our doorbell can be heard from outside when rung so we don’t quite believe the aggressive simultaneous door/letter box banging is necessary. It can be quite a shock it is done very aggressively.  I’ll definitely action the steps you’ve kindly provided along with a phone call tomorrow. I do sympathise with the role drivers have and how busy they are, which is why we tried communicating directly with her but sadly we haven’t succeeded
