Thanks for the clip Mac. Naturally I watched part two as well. Luckily in our history we had Ossie Ardiles and Ricky Villa, two great Argentine players who weren't dirty cheating bastards.

As for the song, well it's before my time. I've always heard Glory Glory Tottenham Hotspur at White Hart Lane since I first started going there aged ten.

Good result for us tonight as well. Some of our kids are coming on nicely. Rose, Livermore and particularly Carroll all put in good performances. COYS!

If you open the link to the blog - it says its still played now as the teams emerge after half time? Surely you hear it every week?



Does anyone else know? I'm interested in this song as my daughter recently learned it at chior and I hear it all the time, but the connection with Spurs was new to me.

In the mean time both City and United fans are being urged to dispose of his shirt. Do they still burn witches in that neck of the woods? Fact is often stranger than fiction. How times have changed especially as both clubs were so keen to sign him. I guess this gives credence to the saying "be careful what you wish for".
City are now the force to be reckoned with in the Premier League. It will be interesting to see what, if any, excuses Sky will try to come with to explain away such a hammering. Being at home, you would expect Manchester United to show some of that much vaunted resilience and character when up against it.

Friggin hell, that was painful to watch. United 1 City 6. Not in a million years would I have predicted that - at HOME too! Not a good day for United at all. It's weird, because during the first 20mins., given how both sides were playing, I thought this was going to be a walkover (for United)! But then it all changed with Balotelli's first goal. I am not a fan of Balotelli, but he played well. As for Evans' red card, the referee had no choice to dish that out: just doing his job. What a stupid move by Evans; though it's easily done - I've done it myself (and worse), and that's just when pissing about in the park with my buddies! Once they were down to 10 men, I just felt United's morale fall; in fact it was a little reminiscent of the FA Cup semi-final last season when Scholes got sent off for that vile tackle. My heart sunk. Fletcher's goal was a beauty, but it wasn't enough.


The the match is now part of history. But well done to City - they deserved to win: well and truly.


SHOCKED and sad for my team.

What a surprising result.


I think the Man City win trumps the Man U win over Arsenal.


I still think the two Manchester teams will be fighting out for the title towards the end of the season. And Man U haven't played well since the Cleverley injury.


I'm a fan of Balotelli's football talent and is good to see him having a good game. He is going to be a great player once he sorts out his mental discipline and stays away from fireworks.

I agree UDT about Cleverley. Even when they were dominating the game today United never really looked like scoring nor did I think they were playing that well. I thought both Fletcher and particularly Anderson were very poor with their distribution. I'm not sure Welbeck will make it at OT. Cleverley showed he had something when he played that United don't have at the moment.

I no longer would 8-2 be an Arsenal fan, at least they have 1-6 of their last 7.

- can't take the credit for the brilliance/crapness (take your pick) of that line.

Feel a little better about our 5-0 defeat to Man City at the Lane.

    • Callout for help from any local experts here. Looking to find out more about the history of the property on the corner of Whateley Road and Ulverscroft road (with the green glazed bricks). Now a residential property, i'm told it was a bottle shop in days gone (the house was built around 1900) by and i'd like to learn more about the history of the business that was once here - name, photos, anything at all really! Seems to be very little from open source research so i'm hoping anyone with history in the area can provide any insight!  Starting here before i contact Southwark Archives or similar orgs to get any information and pictures (any advice here also would be welcome). Thank you
    • Portable ramps are available for businesses to use in this sort of situation, aren't they? I don't know whether one would be suitable for use here, or whether they have the space to store one. Lots of people have  permanent or temporary disabilities which mean they have to use crutches or a wheelchair.
    • I can’t remember where I read that figure but this article in the Grauniad from 2023 discusses Ocado results from 2022. The average shopping cart fell to £118 from £129 the previous year. But Ocado lost £500m that year on approximately 20 million orders (circa 400k orders per week). So, averaging out to £25 lost per order. Ocado pauses building new warehouses as annual losses balloon to £500m | Ocado | The Guardian  Obviously, the £500m loss includes various factors. But Ocado has existed for 25 years and only made a small profit in a couple of those years. The rest have been huge losses. Yet it continues to raise funds and speculation sends the share price up and down. In that respect,  it’s like the UK version of Tesla. Meanwhile, the main growth in the supermarket sector has been for Aldi and Lidl, who do not deliver.
