Ahem! Gattuso had earlier grabbed and pushed Joe Jordan by the throat during the second half and after the headbutt his antics carried on in the tunnel after the game and he had to be restrained by team-mates. I stand by my view that his ban was lenient.


Re: the Blackpool result. Yup! Typical Spurs. Winners at the San Siro one week and losers at Bloomfield Road the next. I could make the excuse that we only had four fit defenders and several other players out but I won't bother and then as KPC has pointed out there is Bassong. We've proven in the past that we have the squad to cope but we defended very poorly and missed a hat full of chances. Not good enough.

Missing the chances seemed to be the bigger problem, something like 25.


Spurs' inconsistancy is reminding me of Liverpol. It's the reason teams like Untited win lots of things, because they grind out result after result, even when they're not playing great. Liverpool just never seemed to be able to do that.

We won ugly last night, but given the opposition were Stoke, thats not surprising. I hope RVP didn't play purely as a precaution against being injured and therefor out for Sunday. However, the more immediate concern is El Capitan and Theo, who is definitely out for Wembley on Sunday and more worryingly Barca. I'm hoping Cesc was withdrawn to prevent the injury getting worse. I hope he's available for Sunday.

Only strain here is having to read drivel posted by plums like you. Unlike Celtic, we play decent teams week in week out, and not just Rangers. Now jog on.

Most clubs in the prem are decent sides, the SPL, on the other hand, has 2 or 3 at best.

      Councillor McAsh defects to the Greens

      By Blah Blah · Posted

      Morally they should, but we don't actually vote for parties in our electoral system. We vote for a parliamentary (or council) representative. That candidates group together under party unbrellas is irrelevant. We have a 'representative' democracy, not a party political one (if that makes sense). That's where I am on things at the moment. Reform are knocking on the door of the BNP, and using wedge issues to bait emotional rage. The Greens are knocking on the door of the hard left, sweeping up the Corbynista idealists. But it's worth saying that both are only ascending because of the failures of the two main parties and the successive governments they have led. Large parts of the country have been left in economic decline for decades, while city fat cats became uber wealthy. Young people have been screwed over by student loans. Housing is 40 years of commoditisation, removing affordabilty beyond the reach of too many. Decently paid, secure jobs, seem to be a thing of the past. Which of the main parties can people turn to, to fix any of these things, when the main parties are the reason for the mess that has been allowed to evolve? Reform certainly aren't the answer to those things. The Greens may aspire to do something meaningful about some of them, but where will they find the money to pay for it? None of it's easy.

      Yes, but the context is important and the reason.

      That messes up Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland - democracy being based on citizenship not literacy. There's intentionally no one language that campaign materials have to be in.

      TBH if people don't see what is sectarian in the materials linked to above when they read about them, then I don't think me going on about it will help. They speak for themselves.  I don't know how the Greens can justify promising to be a strong voice for one particular religion. Will that pledge hold when it comes to campaigning in East Dulwich (which is majority atheist)? https://censusdata.uk/e02000836-east-dulwich/ts030-religion
