Deesaster.....Hells Bells is right. Can't quite believe it. Must have been over confidence. And poor defending by all accounts. Can't see Rangers dropping points......if I wasn't going to Ireland to play golf for four days I think I'd cry......


Had the usual text from a Rangers friend. Supercaleygobalisticcelticareatrocious, thought I'd heard the end of that one.

Hmmm I don't believe this one originated at Liverpool, however I have heard it once when we played at Wembley and it went, "to see the mighty Liverpool play at Wembley..." :)


On that note, when was the last time Liverpool played at Wembley... must have been 15 years ago! jeepers!

Yes but at least the 3 clubs who don't get promotion from the play-offs can threaten to sue QPR and hope to settle out of court for ?20-30 mill (maybe they should ask McCabe for advice).


Though after today's fiasco i would almost swap chairmen with the blades - did McC. ever not travel to a crucial away game 'cause he thought his team would lose anyway?


Rumour has it the players that are left at Upton Pk. will be undergoing extensive training as Karen Brady has bought a job lot of banjos and hired a field of cows for the summer.

T. Brown - right...you never know when you're well off. When I think of the campaign to get the Icelandic biscuit boy to buy the club instead of Kia Joorabchian's mates... well i guess we got what we deserved in delboy sullivan and rodney gold. They have been so busy calculating the money they'd make from taking over the olympic stadium they forgot to run the bloody club. I mean... Jacobsen?!??

Ok - Simon, you've riled me.


Then you are far too delicate a flower. My previous comment critised the FA, not QPR or WHU. The scheduling of the enquiries against both teams went on for far too long - almost a whole season in both instances, which lead to uncertainty for more than just the 2 clubs directly affected. What sort of idiocy and incompetence leads to the situation QPR had to suffer in the final week of the season? What sort of gross stupidity thinks up points deductions anyway as a form of punishment? It's the fans who suffer, not the owners and suits at the clubs. If you do have it though, at least apply it fairly. Compare and contrast Leeds, Rotherham, Middlesbrough, Luton and I forget who else with QPR and WHU and then try argue the whole thing is not a total shambles.


And you're quite wrong about the specific case of WHU & Sheffield United. But we will never agree on that anyway. ?25 milllion was inadequate compensation for losing Premier status. Colin of course gets a lot of people's backs up for all sorts of reasons, many of them justified I am sure, but I see no hypocrisy in any of his comments on the latest affair. The QPR & WHU cases were so completely different. I wish we had kept him after that relegation as there is no doubt he is a manager of high quality at certain levels.


And yes Sheffield United were complete and utter crap last season!

      Milk delivery

      By Sue · Posted

      Off topic, but when I was a kid in Streatham, long ago, apart from the milkman (rarely if ever milkwoman),  who also delivered yoghurt - very exotic - in little glass jars, we also had regular deliveries of coal, bread and cheesecakes (not the kind we know now, they had coconut on top), fruit and veg,  and paraffin (both pink and blue). I'm not entirely sure we have lost "something amazing" by buying milk in shops. The glass bottles were left on the doorstep and the metallic tops were pecked through by birds getting at the cream/milk. Or else the bottles were nicked.  And then there was the rag and bone man.... bell and horse and cart, just like Steptoe. God I'm old. We didn't have supermarket deliveries. We didn't have supermarkets. I remember the first supermarket opening in Streatham. It  was quite amazing having to walk round and  put your own shopping in a basket. As you were ..... Sorry OP and admin.

      Yep, I hear you. Been waiting for modern milkman to these parts and plan to try them out. I still remember Dennis, our Egg-man, from my childhood, who used to deliver dozens in his Citroen 2C and came to collect the boxes the following week. Happy Days.

      I always feel we lost something amazing when we moved away from home milk delivery with glass bottles using electric floats to driving to supermarkets and buying milk in plastic bottles. Hindsight says we should have valued the good old milky more
