Charlotte, myself and my friend Neil watch many of the United games at the Marquis of Granby in New Cross. It's not very glamorous but they are friendly and there's usually a good mixture of supporters in there. I watched the 2008 Champions League final in there and even the Millwall boys were supporting us....can't think why?

Good to hear!


Do any of you meet up for a bit of a kick-a-bout, especially now the weather is nice? I try to play but I am shocking at tackling and generally end up kicking someone (accidently of course!).


My fianc? however is pretty good and I'm hoping that when he finally finds a job and moves down here, he can join in on some games locally if that happens at all.

Mr. Lush is correct. Check out the What's On section. You may even get to meet the "other" Charlotte (Uni player, blonde, eye-liner!).;-) Come and join us. I am utter crap: my speciality is scoring own goals, being offside, being issued yellow cards and being sent off! Have now 2 red cards to my name LOL! We already have 2 United fans in the team. I am trying to persuade Jenayr to join too. If you and Jenayr joined, that would be FOUR United fans! Woo hoo...

PS Charlotte: there is a small posse of us who also support Dulwich Hamlets FC. Let me know if you fancy going to any of those games, and I'll stick you on our PM list. I watch around 99% of home games. Jenayr and I are getting a season ticket next year - grand cost ?60. Bargain or what!

Brilliant(tu)

BTW, you won't need the gym once you start playing...means more money for drinks in the pub! Win Win!B)

Congratulations to Raul Meireles for getting the PFA Fans Player of the season award, and Scott Parker the Football Writers' award (and of course Bale last w/e the PFA Players award). But I do wonder with so much still at stake this time of season why these awards cannot be voted for at end of season rather than months beforehand!

    • Exactly what I said, that Corbyn's group of univeristy politics far-left back benchers would have been a disaster during Covid if they had won the election. Here you go:  BBC News - Ex-union boss McCluskey took private jet flights arranged by building firm, report finds https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/cp3kgg55410o The 2019 result was considered one of the worst in living memory for Labour, not only for big swing of seats away from them but because they lost a large number of the Red-wall seats- generational Labour seats. Why? Because as Alan Johnson put it so succinctly: "Corbyn couldn't lead the working class out of a paper bag"! https://youtu.be/JikhuJjM1VM?si=oHhP6rTq4hqvYyBC
    • Agreed and in the meantime its "joe public" who has to pay through higher prices. We're talking all over the shop from food to insurance and everything in between.  And to add insult to injury they "hurt " their own voters/supporters through the actions they have taken. Sadly it gets to a stage where you start thinking about leaving London and even exiting the UK for good, but where to go????? Sad times now and ahead for at least the next 4yrs, hence why Govt and Local Authorities need to cut spending on all but essential services.  An immediate saving, all managerial and executive salaries cannot exceed and frozen at £50K Do away with the Mayor of London, the GLA and all the hanging on organisations, plus do away with borough mayors and the teams that serve them. All added beauracracy that can be dispensed with and will save £££££'s  
    • The minimum wage hikes on top of the NICs increases have also caused vast swathes of unemployment.
    • Exactly - a snap election will make things even worse. Jazzer - say you get a 'new' administration tomorrow, you're still left with the same treasury, the same civil servants, the same OBR, the same think-tanks and advisors (many labour advisors are cross-party, Gauke for eg). The options are the same, no matter who's in power. Labour hasn't even changed the Tories' fiscal rules - the parties are virtually economically aligned these days.  But Reeves made a mistake in trying too hard, too early to make some seismic changes in her first budget as a big 'we're here and we're going to fix this mess, Labour to the rescue' kind of thing . They shone such a big light on the black hole that their only option was to try to fix it overnight. It was a comms clusterfuck.  They'd perhaps have done better sticking to Sunak's quiet, cautious approach, but they knew the gullible public was expecting an 24-hour turnaround miracle.  The NIC hikes are a disaster, I think they'll be reversed soon and enough and they'll keep trying till they find something that sticks.
