I hear Curbs is in the frame too. They won't hire Bilic (too strong/opinionated) as they need a yes man they can pay peanuts to, one with the reputation as a 'nice guy' (another Roeder in fact) - step forward Mr Hughton.

Man Citys FA Cup winning trophy bus parade starts in Manchester City Centre then through Ancoats, Beswick, then onto the COMS ...... The Rags bus parade starts at Pall Mall, via Westminster past Big Ben, then to down Surrey across to Devon and Cornwall, then over to Dublin, Belfast and a quick visit to Wales via Korea and Japan!

Incredible as it may sound, the rumour of Warnock to WHU refuses to die the death. It appears his position at QPR is not rock-solid, never mind that they led the Championship from first to last. Given how venal and stupid the people who own/run football clubs can often be, I don't find this story totally unbelievable. I cannot though see Colin wanting to give up managing QPR in the Premiership willingly all the same - he has something to prove at that level I reckon. And at his time of life you'd not think even a blank cheque - despite his being a Yorkshireman and therefore never taking brass less than seriously - would attract him back to the Championship with WHU. The current owners of the latter oversaw Birmingham getting back to the Premier at the first attempt after being relegated and maybe that's their plan here too - but I reckon the Charlton scenario may be just as likely.

So Ba was too tired to sign an autograph... these must be Spurs fans stirring it... what hammers fan in his right mind wants an autograph from the current crop of wage thieves?


As for Warnock NO! ANYONE but him. Bilic for preference but I'd even take Mark Robins over nelly warnock.

No worries. If Liverpool win next weekend Spurs will probably lose at home to Birmingham and that'll fcuk 'em up. Arf! "Europa League, no one likes it and we don't care."

FA Youth Cup Final 1st Leg, Sheff U v Man U


I know there's a Blades fan here. You might like to read this. Very impressive crowd. I believe Manchester beat Newcastle 1-0 en route to the Final who in turn had knocked out Dulwich Hamlet 6-2 (though it was level at HT, I think). I think the 2nd leg is on Monday.


Found the highlights. One fantastic goal. Scroll down the right to find it

      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
