Well done Chelsea, great performance to see out that game after Terry once again proved what an idiot he can be.


Poor tactics from Barcelona, as Hoddle said afterwards they should have been looking to go much wider and have overlapping runs.


Outrageous dive from Fabregas, no contact at all and right in front of the 5th official who did nothing. Pleased for Torres after all the grief he has had. Geoff Shreeves, what an interview, couldn't believe his question, well done Ivanovic for not reacting.

Well done Chelsea...poetic justice with Terry missing the final. I think they will miss Ramires in the final far more than Terry, and replacing Ivanovich could be a problem too...I wouldn't fancy Boswinga's chances against either Robben or Ronaldo...maybe Essien will have to fill in.

Should be another great game tonight, Madrid are on a roll after winning El Classico, but I'll stick with my earlier prediction that Bayern will go through and win it on home turf...

To do that they are going to have to be very careful tonight against the (ahem) trickery of Real and Ronaldo as seven Bayern players are already on a yellow.

I say, absolutely spiffing performance by The Blues. Amazing night. Brilliant. I am so pleased. The chappie, 'Razors', a few pages back on this thread predicted this win and so well done to him.

Now to watch the fun as all the hangers on cluck and pray about 4th spot . . . .Up The Blues.

All you need now is Tarot/Captain Scarlett to post 'their' views/wisdom on the subject


Well done though to Bayern Munich tonight


Oh & JT's gone up a notch (who'd have thought that possible) on the knob-o-meter

It's not what I've heard ratty. I think this is more like it though. Squad rotation.


That coupled with Harry's heart scare, court case and yes, his connection with the England job have all conspired against us but mostly the main core of Spurs players are knackered. The way things are I think 5th or 6th is about where we'll end up which isn't good enough after a season that promised so much. That's the thing about being a Spurs fan - a long suffering one at that - it's the hope that kills you.

There you go again Jah, getting ahead of yourself...before you know it they'll be leaping off the treatment table proclaiming ''It' a miracle, I can walk!'' and you'll be back to mid-table mediocrity ;-)


D Bentley...Knee Injury...No return date...yep, in more ways than one :)


Muamba's 'injury' was an interesting one...Computer says: ''What the fook do I put for heart stopped for 78 minutes''

    • 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."
    • Ha! After I posted this, I thought of lots more examples. Screwfix and the hardware store? Mrs Robinson and Jumping Bean? Chemists, plant shops, hairdressers...  the list goes on... it's good to have healthy competition  Ooooh! Two cheese shops
    • You've got a point.  Thinking Leyland and Screwfix too but this felt different.
