Who saw that result coming?

John, Manchester's finest, producing some fancy ganache work in the final bake-off to pip Brendan the Softy Southerner.

''I'm over the moon'' said a delighted John. Predictably Brendan was ''gutted'' and quickly blamed a bad egg timer.

James, a distant third, headed home in true Scottish fashion with his tail well and truly between his legs...

Serbia need to be shown the door by Fifa and UEFA. They have a disgraceful track record as far as racism is concerned and last nights performance by Serbian fans, players and officials was sub human. Grow a pair Fifa and Uefa and boot them out of competions for at least a year. Well done norn iron for making multi millionaire and sour puss Ronaldo "unhappy", tool. At least they had a go unlike the Jocks who were played off the park. Shcoking.

ProPlus and sleeping tablets aside, another insipid and disjointed performance from Team England.

What gets me, is that in the post-match TV interview, Roy said that the pitch wasn't conducive to possession football, instead suiting the long ball game. If that's the case Roy, why didn't you play a team that included Carroll and wingers?..

" Shaun, a Liverpool supporter, on

5 live Your Call: "I've been 36

years a season ticket holder at

Anfield, but this is my last season.

I've been all over the world following

Liverpool, but I've just had enough.

It's too much. We have a ?140m

wage bill. If Liverpool cut their wage

bill by 10% they could afford to drop

the ticket prices ?15 per match per

person. But they won't do it.

"Without the fans there is no football,

and I think clubs need to remember

that. We are the golden goose. Don't

kill us off. I've got four children I'd

love to take to the match, but I can't

afford it."



Spot on that man.

Couple more comments from BBC website.


GET INVOLVED

Paul Wilkinson on Twitter: "If it costs

as much to see League 1 game as to

go to Cheltenham Festival something

is very wrong."


Peanut on Twitter: "Can't recall my

first match, was too young. Dad took

me home/away for years. My lad's

13, could only ever afford the odd

game."

I heard that call. Someone in the studio reckoned that the clubs could substantially lower tickets prices from the extra revenue they will receive next season from the new Sky deal, but we all know they won't. Fans go on about overpaid prima donnas, but to me the buck stops with the clubs, they control what the players earn, not the players...

      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."
