had to chuckle at the Spuds debacle,...nearest one to my 8-0 predictions


to be honest the Liverpool result just made me feel sick, I'm still scarred by 2006 and have never watched that game ever on TV. I didn't watch much of the second half in the Millenium, stopped staring at the ground when they put the 2 mins of Injury time board up just in time to see Liverpool pressurise us on the 'pass back# that resulted in Gerrards goal, still think it was a terrible bit of gamesmanship although only Hammers seem to have noticed it


PS I bet MickM never layed that bet on Spurs, the idiot

Yeah, funny that. Having thrown the ball to your player, what exactly would you have had Liverpool do after your player made a rubbish clearence?


Not trying to pick an argument, and would agree that Liverpool got lucky that day, and would have been absolutely gutted had I been a hammer, BUT calling foul play is just wrong.

Of course I did not lay my Spurs bet.....there is nothing worse than laying off a bet and then hoping your prediction does not happen (spurs don't win). I would not write spurs off entirely. Need someone to support anyway.


As someone who only saw the highlights ledley king was a complete passenger today.

Aaron Lennon hasn't appeared for England since his World Cup flop. I can't see why Lennon should get the nod over Walcott for an England place this season. Lennon has only scored three goals compared to Walcott's eight this season. And when was the last time Aaron has scored a goal for England?

Really? You can keep your part the Tottenham part of North London mate, you deserve it. By the way Bale is to get a nomination from the diving association of Great Britain apparently he's better at it than Tom Daley, the monkey featured Welsh twat. 2 nil and you fcuked it up. Apparently Lead Boots King doesn't train before a game. Is that right? Well you'd never have guessed it after yesterdays piss poor showing!!! B)

That is the poorest game I've ever seen Ledley King play. Normally he is superb but he didn't look fit at all. Very sad. I hope it's not the end for him. He's been a great servant to our club. As for Bale he should stick to the wing and bring back Lennon on the other side. I thought we really missed him yesterday. Can't understand why he wasn't playing.

Well yeah - Redknapp was right when he said "it was one of those days for us"


and Wenger spot on when he said "it would be down to consistency" but anyone could have told him that before the game.


on another note - with Rooney, Cleverly and Bent out surely Pearce has to rethink leaving the Ox in the U21s?

Wenger simly outsmarted Redknapp. This concerns me as he needs to be more tactically aware in the international arena.



Perhaps Pearce is playing it safe for his first game in charge rather than gambling on an inexperienced O-C.

      But all those examples sell a wide variety of things,  and mostly they are well spread out along Lordship Lane. These two shops both sell one very specific thing, albeit in different flavours, and are just across the road from each other. I don't think you can compare the distribution of shops in Roman times to the distribution of shops in Lordship Lane in the twenty first century. Well, you can, but it doesn't feel very appropriate. Haa anybody asked the first shop how they feel? Are they happy about the "healthy competition" ?

      ED is included in the 17 August closure set (or just possibly 15 August, depending on which part of the page you trust more) listed at https://metro.co.uk/2025/07/25/full-list-25-poundland-stores-confirmed-close-august-23753048/. Here incidentally are some snippets from their annual reports, at https://find-and-update.company-information.service.gov.uk/company/02495645/filing-history. 2022: " during the period we opened 41 stores and closed 43 loss-making/under-performing stores.  At the period-end we were trading from 821 stores in the UK, IoM and ROI. ... "We renogotiated 82 leases in the year, saving on average 45% versus the prior lease agreement..." 2023: "We also continued to improve our market footprint through sourcing better store locations, opening 53 and closing 51 stores during the year." 2024:  "The ex-Wilco stores acquired in the prior year have formed a core part of this strategy to expand our store network.  We favour quality over quantity and during the period we opened 84 stores and closed 71 loss-making/under-performing ones."
