Back to the slog of the League...Week 18 Fixtures.

I reckon a few will be tempted with this week's Coupon Buster, Swansea to win at Everton...


QPR V Tottenham

Aston Villa V Southampton

Everton V Swansea

Fulham V Wigan

Norwich V Newcastle

Reading V West Brom

Stoke V Chelsea

Sunderland V West Ham


Man Utd V Liverpool

Arsenal V Man City

Wasn't really expecting a result for Liverpool yesterday, but by the end I was disappointed they didn't get a draw. They were shocking in the first half though, and you can't give Man U a head start! Was good to see a bit of fight in them later on though, and Sturridge / Saurez look as though they will be able to play together...

Looking for some interesting discussion and banter, but all I see in the posts above were predictions. My son's primarly school run a fantasy football league if anyone is interested.


Right, I am now bored of taking the p out of your predictions competition, so wont mention it again, so back to proper football talk.


Interesting in the pricing structure and the talk of free coaches to away matches. A certain non London prem team do that as an occasional treat and have bused 2000+ with a fanfare that creates a nice carnival atmosphere. The same non London team has dropped ticket prices to a sensible ?15 for the FA Cup replay (compared to the ?26 at the first match, at the pride of West London (he says quoting the recent advertising, and stiffling a laugh)).


And to bring discussion to more local matters, Arsenal dropped the away fans tickets to ?26 for the recent match. OK there was still 5000 empty seats in the home areas, but hats off to them for more sensible charging. And to Fulham for the kids for a quid (and hang on for unpopular matches as you can buy tickets for ?15 from ticket master).

Just for malumbu, here are the Week 18 results and table (EP, are you sitting down comfortably?)...



EP - 2 Correct Results + 2 Correct Scores = 8 pts


RD - 4 Correct Results + 1 Correct Score = 7 pts


MM - 2 Correct Results + 1 Correct Score = 5 pts

JL - 5 Correct Results + 0 Correct Scores = 5 pts


AM - 4 Correct Results + 0 Correct Scores = 4 pts

LG - 4 Correct Results + 0 Correct Scores = 4 pts

RC - 4 Correct Results + 0 Correct Scores = 4 pts

SC - 4 Correct Results + 0 Correct Scores = 4 pts


DR - 3 Correct Results + 0 Correct Scores = 3 pts

Mx - 3 Correct Results + 0 Correct Scores = 3 pts

OT - 3 Correct Results + 0 Correct Scores = 3 pts

PD - 3 Correct Results + 0 Correct Scores = 3 pts


?? - 2 Correct Results + 0 Correct Scores = 2 pts

Back to usual league form then *sighs and hopes Malumbu doesn't mock in the playground after double geog.*


Putting Irons' gormless display down to 'one of those days', especially after the disappointment of van p's late goal the week before. Hope Potts doesn't take his error to heart too much - could see he was expecting goalkeeper to come and will learn from it. Still think team are short of fire-power.


On a related note - albeit a petty one - I wasn't too bothered by WH's crappy "putting the X into Xmas" slogan (with the X represented by crossed hammers) but am finding the continued use of "Moore than just a football club" sticks right in my throat.

    • What was he doing on the stage at Glastonbury? Or on the stage at the other concert in Finsbury Park? Grinning like a Cheshire cat whilst pissed and stoned 20 somethings on the promise of free internet sung-- Oh Jeremy Corbyn---  What were his policies for Northern mining towns with no jobs or infrastructure? Free Internet and university places for youngsters. What were his other manifesto pledges? Why all the ambiguity over Brexit?  I didn't like Thatcher, Blair or May or Tony but I respected them as politicians because they stood by what they believed in. I respect all politicians across the board that stick to their principles. Corbyn didn't and its why he got  annihilated at the polls. A socialist, anti imperialist and anti capitalist that said he voted for an imperialist and pro capitalist cabal. He refused to say how he'd vote over and over again until the last knockings. He did so to appease the Islington elite and middle class students he was courting. The same people that were screaming that Brexit was racist. At the same time the EU were holding black and Asian immigrants in refugee camps overseas but not a word on that! Corbyn created and courted a student union protest movement that screamed at and shouted down anyone not on the left . They claimed Starmer and the centre right of labour were tories. He didn't get elected  because he, his movement and policies were unelectable, twice. He turned out not to have the convictions of his politics and died on his own sword.    Reform won't win an election. All the idiots that voted for them to keep out Labour actually enabled Labour. They'll be back voting tory next time.    Farage wouldn't be able to make his millions if he was in power. He's a very devious shyster but I very much doubt he'd actually want the responsibility that governance requires.
    • The purge of hard left members that were part of Corbyn's, Mcdonnel's and Lansmans momentum that purged the party of right wing and centrist members. That's politics. It's what Blair did to win, its what Starmer had to do to win. This country doesn't vote in extreme left or right governments. That's partly why Corbyn lost  We're pretty much a centrist bunch.  It doesn't make it false either. It's an opinion based on the voting patterns, demography and statistics. Can you explain then why former mining constituencies that despise the tories voted for them or abstained rather than vote for Corbyns Labour?  What is the truth then? But he never got elected!!! Why? He should have been binned off there and then. Why he was allowed to hang about is an outrage. I hold him party responsible for the shit show that we've had to endure since. 
    • Depends on what the Barista says doesnt it? There was no physical confrontation with the driver, OP thinks she is being targetted when she isnt. These guys work min wage under strict schedules so give them a break unless they damage your stuff
    • CPR Dave, attendance records are available on Southwark's website. Maggie Browning has attended 100% of meetings. Jon Hartley has attended 65%.
