What goes on in the mind of John Terry? He didn't win the CL for Chelsea and you could say he nearly lost it for them in the SF. But does that stop him getting kitted out and collecting the cup? No, but it should have. It wasn't his party to gatecrash.


Well done WH on getting up. Maybe Sam will get some credit now.

Oh dear, two edits UDT. Fine tuning I suppose.

And tghe winner of the Champions League?...Bale's agent. :))


West Ham played poorly and Blackpool missed two sitters in the first 15 mins but the 3 best/most consistent teams (by some margin- 10 points) have all got promoted.


I've seen the Hammers Live in two Cup Finals and 3 play off finals and have to say that in terms of the actual matches (ie during it) it's an endurance rather than a pleasure. I enjoyed about 5 minutes of yesterday's match max - the rest of teh day was fantastic however

So what's your point? Heaven knows what small minded activity goes on inside your mind. I tend to do most of my editing after posting rather than before. The previous edits were to remove the word 'the' and a 'space'.


Anyway back to your inability to spell the word consistent. It's funny that on another thread you said that the problem with this country is that people can't spell. :))

I tend to agree, but interestingly, Roy Keane (who never lifted the cup) thinks he should have had the right as team captain.

Sooo, Torres... What a knob. Has not gone down well with the Chelsea supporters who, to be fair to them, stuck by him through a massive dry spell.


Will be interesting to see whether he's still there next season. I always thought he seemed pretty decent, even when he walked away from Liverpool, but he has come over as q right brat.

Yep, as a Spurs fan I was a little gutted but you have to hand it to Drogba another final, another priceless goal(or 2 if you count the winning pen), the mans awesome. Shame JT had to come along and make it all about him. Still if this scenario was ever going to unfold the way it did then it was always going to be Spurs who suffered. We're starting to look a little hapless. Channel 5 on a thursday night again it is. Ho-hum. :-S

Roy Keane, the man who deliberately injured an opponent and was glad about it. Yes, somehow I think it's safe to disregard anything that coont has to say.

Drogba finally confirms Chelsea exit.


Love him or hate him, it's hard not to be impressed by this.

    • 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.
