Definitely interesting. And if they back down its a complete Buck up.

Good summing up from the Guardian.



More questions should be asked, surely, if they decide not to pursue the matter. That, however, is not completely out of the question, believe it or not, and it is slightly disconcerting to hear from within Stamford Bridge that the club have not yet fully decided whether to proceed. Having come so far, they surely have to. And if not? The FA then has to launch a separate investigation into why.


The FA's disciplinary commission criticised Chelsea because of the "evolving" nature of Cole's submissions for Terry's hearing, heavily implicating the club secretary, David Barnard, because of "materially defective" evidence. The accused are now the accusers and, much like Clattenburg, cannot afford to get this one wrong.

To be fair, I thought at 4 -4 a replay was on the cards. Isn't that what used to happen in this competition?

When I wrote my post, exactly the same point you made came to mind. But I feel the referee would know he would be under so much sccrutiny that he would soon get found out if he was showing any bias, and then rightly thrown out of the game. Fans will always come out of with their conspiracy theories, let's not bend to them...

Hmm, other problems with that. It would be important not to disincentivise engagement after an injury absence.


Being a statistical moron, I'm wondering whether the fairest result would be to multiply the average score by the percentage of weeks played?


As in played 6 weeks from 7 for an average score of 7 would result in a score of 6?

After the last couple of days a maybe a foray into the FA cup (from 3rd round?)?


Based on a knockout system with bottom two dropping out of each round up to the semi when (if the 11 above were all that entered there would be 3 left by then so 1 would drop out leavng 2 to contest final)?


What do you mean some people's only chance of rescuing their season is a good cup run?!?? B)

      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."
