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 I'm hoping Cesc was withdrawn to prevent the injury getting worse.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.

    • The Commons Public Accounts Committee questioned both the CEO and MD of Capita yesterday, at their last meeting before the recess:  https://committees.parliament.uk/event/25889/formal-meeting-oral-evidence-session/.  In October they'd already expressed concern that Capita might not  be able to efficiently retake over responsibility for the administration within the timescale. Given the joint statement recently issued by Capita and the Cabinet Office I'm not sure that contacting an MP is going to add much, other than venting what I think most of us can probably appreciate of what those affected are likely  to be thinking and feeling; unless perhaps, and I hope it's not needed, to report on deficiencies in the immediate rescue actions.
    • She's responded, but I'm sure I read something in the Guardian consumer advice column. Might be some pointers if you're stuck
    • Two for Ratcliffe, the obvious one:   And one simply because it has the word  "You are nothing but blind fascists" in it.  Oh and a good song too.   Haven't listened to this for years.  Bloody good!
    • It's time to ditch your team, otherwise you could be seen to supporting your owners dog whistle comments (aka racist). Fortunately you can support a local team, I understand that Palace have pretty right on fans, and you have Dulwich Hamlet and Peckham Town too. If you genuinely are from the North West then Everton fans are well rated for their politics (ignore the paving over paradise/loss of UNESCO world heritage status), and of course FC United of Manchester. Salford Town not a bad bet either. For those who are glory hunters dare I say over the river in the North London library aka Emirates (shame they don't rhyme) you have both the likelihood of a title this season and a very multicultural fan base. If you want to be really cool the Welsh speaking team Club Cymric, Forest Green Rovers, or AS Livorno in Italy, an anti-fascist team
