I agree, there I've said it.

I'm sure Fergie will have a quiet word with him.


Re. Spurs' goal yesterday...had the referee given the penalty and sent Cech off, rather than playing advantage that led to the goal, it may have been a different outcome.



Don't understand why he couldn't have sent Cech off anyway. It was a sending off defence. Refs can go back and book players for foul play (it happened yesterday) after letting advantage go so why not here? Just because Spurs scored does not make it less of an offence.


Ashley Young's diving was pathetic and I'm glad to see Fergie has at least commented on it. He doesn't like it.

He could only send him off for violent conduct (it wasn't) or denying a clear goal-scoring opportunity (they scored so that is cancelled out too).

Was waiting for that! Thats why we had to put a few more past them to avoid the endless 'what ifs', and 'buts. .'

Read 'em and weep Harry. . . .er on second thoughts maybe just weep !

I agree Jah, and a lot of the credit should go to their chairman Dave Whelan...many others would've lost their nerve in January.

If 'arry does get the England job, Martinez along with Brendan Rogers should be a candidate for Spurs manager, but if I was a Spurs fan I would want Moyes. I think after 10 years he will leave Everton this summer. Without investment I don't think he can take Everton any further...he cut a very deflated figure after the semi-final.

Good point Tanday but if ever anyone has earned the right to try its Moyes. Its been a rollercoaster ride with 'Arry but without a smidgen of tactical nous applied when desperately needed hes been found out when it matters most. My beloved chickens have well and truly choked. Its the hope what gets you. ;-)

That's the thing with 'arry. He's obviously great with the players, but has he really got it tactically? After a recent loss, he said something along the lines of "people say we play well like that, but for me, it doesn't work so well".


So why did he play like that, because other people suggested it?!?

Great sides, these days, are able to stifle the opposition as well as producing fluid attacking football.


The problem with Moyes is that he hasn't got hardly any strikers. His latest forward acquisition from Rangers looks like a decent player though.


I think Moyes got the FA cup semi-final tactically right since Liverpool's srike force couldn't really score in a Wayne Rooney brothel. However, the mistakes by Everton gave the Livepool strkers the confidence to score goals that won the game.

    • You implied he did a good job in your first paragraph when you said you would have hated to see Corbyn lead the country through Covid - the alternative being Johnson, presumably? With the results we all saw. Unite - you have a problem with unions? Who work hard to see that their members get a fair deal in their workplace? How exactly are these people and groups "all as bad as each other"? In what way? Labour "purging their party of the far-left" has given us a weak prime minister who has apparently deserted any "left" (aka caring for other people and having decent moral principles) leanings he ever had. Which is why people appear to be leaving Labour in droves and voting, or intending to vote, Green or Lib Dem. Starmer has shot himself in the foot, in my opinion. But what would I know. What worked?! I don't know enough about what you are talking about to comment, but "believing" you know the reason someone did something does not make it true. I don't believe that Corbyn ever got "starstruck" or "forgot about his politics", but if you can provide evidence that those things are true, then fair enough. I don't think you can, though.
    • I think you need to get a grip If it's who I am thinking of, she's a young black girl in her twenties, has braids with bright colours through them and - I suspect - works with her father. It's always the same man behind the wheel and he's older than her, always in the same van, so I'm assuming it's a father-daughter combo which, if it is, I think is rather sweet.  They hustle hard in a job that is poorly paid, has little prospects, is relentless and thankless. The fact that they have stuck it out since the pandemic says a lot about them.  I think she's a lovely girl, who's perhaps a little shy - but she'll smile or chat back if you make the effort with her. And I admire her for sticking with that job for so long. Perhaps she's just one of these people who's naturally a bit clumsy or bashes things, the same way some people are heavy on their feet when they walk. But I wouldn't dream of jeopardising her job because she closes the slams the gate and doesn't 'kiss' the ring doorbell with her fingers.  Perhaps she's being passive aggressive because you are. And perhaps she also wishes she got to spend her time worrying about potential damage to her letterbox or her gate.  As for your gate / letterbox - you're talking about hypotheticals. Has there been any damage? No. Then go and live your life and worry about it when it happens.  (apols we have the wrong person, but some of my points still stand). 
    • Greg did an amazing job! He built a cabinet in my living room and added shelving. A lovely guy and perfectionist who goes the extra mile. He really understands what you want and comes up with various options to meet your price range. Would highly recommend!
    • I love the fact that virtually everyone held their hands out when furlough payments were made yet can't equate massive debt with massive cash payments to keep the economy ticking over.
