Betting wise, Barca are twice as likely to win than Frankel was.

What are the odds on Celtic to score a goal, regardless of final score?

"It really has been just a communication problem. Obviously as the manager of a club, when you lay down policy you don't want to see it ignored and that's where my anger came from on Saturday. "But we have resolved the situation and there are no lingering problems and we move on. That's the end of the matter."


But rested him now against Braga. Just to make sure he understands or to be ready for Chelsea..

(Mail) Rio Ferdinand is planning to revolutionise English football with the launch of a breakaway union to protect the interests of black footballers? The union ? which has a working name of The Federation of Black Players but will be open to players from all ethnic backgrounds who share a desire to combat racism in English football ? will be self-funded by professionals at every level.

(Guardian)

Rio Ferdinand has quickly moved to downplay reports that he is working on the formation of a new footballers' union - specifically, but not uniquely for black players. "Don't believe all u read", he advised his almost three-and-a-half million Twitter followers, before reverting to matters more commonly discussed in his feed - on this occasion, shaving methods and products.

Maybe, but credit where credit's due, he has always been vocal in support of such campaigns.


Yesterday on a 5Live phone-in, Phil Brown was a guest on a debate about t-shirtgate.

His first contribution was to ask what do we now consider to be racist. Perplexed, the presenter asked for clarification, and Brown went on to cite that he gets called suntan and tango...scary

That's a stupid comparison by Phil Brown.


Anyway, I think Ferdinand's injury problems over the years have caught up with him and when the time comes for him leave Man Utd it will be for that reason and that reason only that SAF will let him go. He can no longer play two or three games a week and that's why he's rested for the game against Braga.

I used to be a Ferguson hater, I thought he was a nasty piece of work, but he seems to have mellowed, and realised that there is more to life than winning at football. The last couple of seasons I have found myself respecting and agreeing with a lot of things he is saying.

Ferguson is a very intelligent bloke. He is smarter than his players and smarter than most in the media, so few are brave enough to challenge him without risking having egg on their face.


Those who do challenge his rule tend to be the losers in the end.


But I agree with Otta, he is less abrasive now and more communicative, hence we see the best of him more regularly. But he still has a huge ego and cross him at your peril.

He's right. Should have been 6 or 7 to Barca. Should read Barcelona 2 - Forster 1 as he alone kept you from a mauling.

Having watched the whole game, that was justice served in the last minute. We got slaughtered by the press for parking the bus against Barcelona and you did exactly the same. At any one time tonight for long periods in the game there were 21 players inside the Celtic half of the pitch.

    • 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....  
    • 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 
    • What outcome would you like? Disciplinary action? Not to have the driver back? Retraining? I know there is alot of pressure on drivers to deliver within a set day. if he slams the gate, is it evidence he is causing damage, or is the noise a irritant to yourself? You could put a sign up or buy a signing asking to close the gate gentle???? can you hear the door bell from the door? he might be ringing, not hearing and therefore knocking. In trhe notes section of the be livery page, there is a note section, although there is not 100 per cent these notes would be read as these drivers are constantly rushing.  I did a google search for you, i found this and you can try the envri website Contact Us | Evri   To complain to Evri, you can follow these steps: Contact Customer Service: Call Evri's customer service at 0330 808 5456 for assistance with your complaint.    1 Write a Letter: Address your complaint to Capitol House, 1 Capitol Close, Morley, Leeds, West Yorkshire, LS27 0WH.    1 Use the Official Website: Visit the Evri complaints page on their official website for detailed instructions on how to submit a complaint.    2 Email or Call for Specific Issues: For issues like missing or damaged parcels, you can email or call 0800 988 8888, which is free to call.    1 These methods will help you effectively communicate your concerns to Evri.   My driver is called anthony, he is brilliant to be honest. I cant fault him.
    • When I have more time and energy, I will look up the actual number of votes cast for each party in that election, rather than the number of seats won. I'm interested to see that you apparently  think that  Boris Johnson did a good job of "leading the country through Covid." Is your memory really that short? I won't stoop to calling Johnson and his cronies names in the way that you seem to think is appropriate for left wing politicians. At least the left wing politicians have some semblance of morals and a concern for people who aren't in some over privileged inner circle and/or raking in money for themselves on the back of an epidemic. I'm not going to open a can of worms on here  by commenting on the disgraceful so called "purge".
