Er, the elbowing comments actually came from a Citeh and a 'ammers fan.

If only you just did smile...

Better that than a twitching churchill dog!! Just trying to balance things up. I wonder if posters on here will be as quick to jump on the bandwagon when an allegation is levelled at one of their own? Nah

United? Really??? Not as long as I have breath in my body. As for arrogant it must be a Manc thing, it's obviously spreading from the neighbours, who take the prize all day long for arrogance.

I'll find it hard to support a team captained by Terry.


On an even more shocking note, football tribalism plumbs new depths with the deaths in Egypt. Shocked and saddened in equal measure. For all the verbal hostility on here, the scenes on TV yesterday were horrific, and makes wonder if scenes such as these could ever be repeated here. I'd like to think not.

Football violence may be a fact of life in Egypt, but the shocking levels have little to do with tribalism and everything to do with the political situation.


Noone is quite sure how to interpret last nights events until the dust begins to settle, but a couple of theories are doing the rounds.


Despite wider opposition, many ultra leaders are quite cosy with the military leadership who have used them previously to foment civil unrest. It's possible last night was orchestrated to give SCAF (Supreme Council of the Armed Forces - basically the junta that took over when Mubarak stepped down) an excuse to cling on to power, but far more likely is that the violence was a sign that the Ultra leadership have lost control.


If the latter then this was a poke in the eye of the authorities (and a literal stab in the gut of the police deemed to have been Mubarak's poodles and a target of particular hatred) to say get the hell out of power and to move democratic reform on more quickly.


Could it happen here? In short no.


Could it happen somewhere like Spain with 50% youth unemployment and clubs who have long tolerated and colluded with their Ultra support (think Barca and Real particularly)? At a pinch I suppose, but there simply isn't the groundswell of anger at the political situation there to do so.


After the collapse of the Euro and the Spanish economy.....maybe.....

The crappy new look BBC site is now reporting Terry is going to lose the England captaincy.


Rio's probably a bit past it now. Lampard's also past his best. Gerrard seems to be hampered more and more by injury. I don't think it is right for Rooney.


Time for the next generation? Step forward Phil Jones?

He's as old as Gerrard & Co. Nothing wrong with a young captain who can grow more and more in to the role.


The whole Terry thing is troubling. The case should NEVER have been put back until after the euros. However, being as it has been put back, is it right that he be punished in any way, before having his day in court?


If we as a country are going to live by "innocent until proven guilty", then surely until he is found guilty in a court, he shouldn't be punished. IF he is found innocent at trial, the FA will have egg on their faces.


Personally I don't think he should ever have been given the armband back in th first place, but he was, and I'm not sure it's right to strip him of it because he's been accused of something.

    • Thank you for the detailed advise @trinidad It is definitely damage we are concerned about. I don’t think Evri would agree to pay the bill to fix our gate or letter box if they were to be damaged as a result of their delivery drivers helper. Our doorbell can be heard from outside when rung so we don’t quite believe the aggressive simultaneous door/letter box banging is necessary. It can be quite a shock it is done very aggressively.  I’ll definitely action the steps you’ve kindly provided along with a phone call tomorrow. I do sympathise with the role drivers have and how busy they are, which is why we tried communicating directly with her but sadly we haven’t succeeded 
    • What outcome would you like? Disciplinary action? Not to have the driver back? Retraining? I know there is alot of pressure on drivers to deliver within a set day. if he slams the gate, is it evidence he is causing damage, or is the noise a irritant to yourself? You could put a sign up or buy a signing asking to close the gate gentle???? can you hear the door bell from the door? he might be ringing, not hearing and therefore knocking. In trhe notes section of the be livery page, there is a note section, although there is not 100 per cent these notes would be read as these drivers are constantly rushing.  I did a google search for you, i found this and you can try the envri website Contact Us | Evri   To complain to Evri, you can follow these steps: Contact Customer Service: Call Evri's customer service at 0330 808 5456 for assistance with your complaint.    1 Write a Letter: Address your complaint to Capitol House, 1 Capitol Close, Morley, Leeds, West Yorkshire, LS27 0WH.    1 Use the Official Website: Visit the Evri complaints page on their official website for detailed instructions on how to submit a complaint.    2 Email or Call for Specific Issues: For issues like missing or damaged parcels, you can email or call 0800 988 8888, which is free to call.    1 These methods will help you effectively communicate your concerns to Evri.   My driver is called anthony, he is brilliant to be honest. I cant fault him.
    • When I have more time and energy, I will look up the actual number of votes cast for each party in that election, rather than the number of seats won. I'm interested to see that you apparently  think that  Boris Johnson did a good job of "leading the country through Covid." Is your memory really that short? I won't stoop to calling Johnson and his cronies names in the way that you seem to think is appropriate for left wing politicians. At least the left wing politicians have some semblance of morals and a concern for people who aren't in some over privileged inner circle and/or raking in money for themselves on the back of an epidemic. I'm not going to open a can of worms on here  by commenting on the disgraceful so called "purge". 
    • Can’t imagine what it must be like you have your doorbell rung harshly.
