I suppose because of experience you have to make United favourites now, but not over yet.


Arsenal only 1 point behind Spurs now. I'm no gooner, but when you consider the mess they were in early in the season, you have to admire that. Chelsea not out of the running by any means either.


Perhaps Harry is planning an end of season collapse, so it'll be easier to walk away from Spurs...

It would be an interesting tustle amongst the top five teams. Man City seems to have a problem with their away record. Spurs have dominated matches but can't convert chances made. With Chelsea and Arsenal both capable enough to pull a string of results to qualify for Champions League. City has a better goal difference that Utd, so a run of nine wins and a draw may be enough for them. There are still enough twists for the Premiership race.

Nothing is done and dusted yet, and there are still 10 games to go. I see Dalglish has asked the authorities to long at Wengers cllims that Suarez is a diver and a cheat. Just saying what we all think then. Is this to deflect the fact that despite all of the millions spent and being welcomed home like some long lost son, his performance is not musch better than Woys and he's beginning to feel the heat? He's buckled under the pressure before, and I wouldn't be surprised if it happened again. Just suppose Liverpool lose tonight and Everton go above them, which on previous history is unlikely, would he be under more pressure having spent shed loads and Moyes spent zip?

Suarez isn't in the Ronaldo / Drogba / Klinnsman diving league yet, but he's getting there so I think it's a fair comment from Wenger.


He might have gone ape if someone had said that about one of his players, but that's because there isn't really anyone in the current Arsenal side that makes you think "diver" when you hear their name.

Fair enough, but he has been there a long time, and there have been a few in those years.


I hate seeing dives, and admit that Suarez has taken a couple, and would rather he didn't. I just can't stand the holier than thou attitude of some people, who think that a player in their team's shirt would never do a thing like that.


Anyway, why exactly are we talking about this AGAIN?

Parkdrive/Atila whatever you call yourself these days. Kenny left after Hillsborough having attended many of the funerals and supporting the club and it's fans. Do you seriously consider him to be a bottler for leaving after the stress involved with that tragedy?

I think at his age and given his track record, which is all we have to go by, it's a possibility, that's all I'm saying. But Liverpool fans seem to able to overlook his performance in a way that were never able to overlook Woy's. Unfair treatment if you ask me. Stevie G did the business to cover up the embrrassment of Carrol being, yet again, unable to find his arse with both hands.

Possibly. But its a Cup game, last chance motel situation. Don't think can make that judgement call. Besides, stuff changes with new managers in any workplace, good, bad, indifferent.

I dunno SJ, do we believe that players have so little pride now, that they'd sit back and let results run against them, in order to get a manager sacked? I'm no Chelsea fan, but you'd think they'd have the will to win of any pro sports person.


I also think that a new manager can produce good results, look at Sunderland!

      Cllr Williams to stand down

      By Dulwich dweller · Posted

      It worked. Corbyn did similar although not to the same degree. Momentum had a purge too when Corbyn got in. All his political life he opposed the EU but when it came to the crunch he publicly backed them during the referendum. I believe that was to appease the middle classes that he was appealing to. He messed up big time when wooing the middle classes at Glastonbury whilst ignoring his core working class voters up north. They also happened to be leave voters. He got starstruck and forgot about his politics. Corbynmania was thing, a movement but it was also the making of his downfall. For the many and not the few came back and slapped him right in the face.

      Is Rachel Reeves becoming the new Liz Truss?

      By Dulwich dweller · Posted

      Nothing to do with the tories overspending whatsoever eh! Blame the last 10/11 years of blatant mismanagement, incompetence and willful deceit on the poor bastards that were left with the fall out of a complete car crash tory government.   One PM after another falling on their sword. Open corruption and piss taking throughout covid and a legacy of huge debt and destruction yet in your view it will be labour's 4 years in power that bankrupts us in 2029.  Another one that must think people are blind and stupid.  Rejoice rejoice. It's a pity he and his fellow clowns were completely annihilated at the ballot box. I mean they were doing so well after all 🙃🙃

      Where did I say he did a good job? Yup and Corbyn was very close to Len McCluskey and funded by Unite wasn't he...they're all as bad as each other... Labour have to purge their party of the far-left - they're a disaster. Allan Johnson summed it up so well on election night in 2019....

      Rude Evri delivery in SE22

      By ak0910 · Posted

      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
