I sort of feel like we were damned if we do and damned if we don't


don't pay Walcott enough and sell him? "The Exodus Continues"

pay him? "He's not really worth it"


to be slightly fair to Walcott, if I was him and saw Arshavin and co on 100ish a week I'd be pushing for equity too


We're offloading some expensive deadwood, we have the money so on balance I'm happier he is staying than not


But he is good enough? Jury is still out with the suspicion that he isn't - but we'll see

That is bloody shocking. Southampton have done well recently and hit a good run of form after a shaky start to the season. A great result at Chelsea in the week, only losing two games in their last twelve. And who the hell is Mauricio Pochettino? His record at Espanyol isn't that great. What the hell were the board thinking? What a way to treat the manager after all the good work he's done for them. I feel very sorry for Nigel Adkins and Southampton's fans. A very poor decision. If their form slumps now and they end up relegated then board have only got themselves to blame.

It was in Arsenal's interest to sign him up even if they eventually sell him, longer contract = bigger fee...don't forget he could've walked away for nothing in the summer. I think his alledged demand to play as a central striker would've put many potential suitors of. Wenger doesn't seem the type to bow to such demands, however Wenger's soundbites have been interesting lately...the perfomance against City was 'timid'...he was 'scared' that Walcott would leave...maybe not the one-eyed meglomaniac afterall...

Don't get me wrong, I think Walcott has lots of potential as a front man, and maybe the signing of the year for the gunners. I just dislike the way he's gone about his bussiness. He was interviewed after a match a couple of weeks back, and I just thought "you arrogant little turd". Shame, because I've always wanted to see him do well.

Walcott has definitely improved since coming inside recently, though there are times when he still does his headless chicken act rather well when he shows us that he's just a shit Aaron Lennon. His finishing has got better and he's scoring more. 100 grand a week is what you get these days for being half decent at a club like the Wanderers. If he can develop into the Henry type of role he craves up front then its money well spent and at 23 there is plenty of scope for improvement.

Bollocks! Sandro is out for the rest of the season. That's a fecking big blow to Spurs. He is an absolute beast of a player. He's been brilliant for us. Scott Parker can replace him but sometimes runs out of gas after 75 mins and at 32 isn't getting any younger.

If you have one of those remote control atmosphere generators can I borrow it for my visit to the Emirates for Wednesday's rearranged Boxing Day game? It'll be my very first visit to the Library - thinking of wearing my crepe sole brogues.

Stamford Bridge still has it on loan, but I can do you a good deal on a job lot of these...

      Did Dulwich College tolerate pupils' bigotry and racism...?

      By malumbu · Posted

      I wonder where he could be deported to, Hungary the obvious candidate in Europe, perhaps he would get on well with Modi?   Conservative leader Kemi Badenoch and Reform UK leader Nigel Farage both said Home Secretary Shabana Mahmood should look at whether Abd El Fattah's citizenship could be revoked to enable his swift removal from the UK. Farage said in a letter to Mahmood: "It should go without saying that anyone who possesses racist and anti-British views such as those of [Mr Abd El Fattah] should not be allowed into the UK." So just racists views are ok Nige?

      If it's the same one I'm thinking of, it was a little further down the road towards LL, probably where the Fresh Flower Company is today. I'd forgotten all about it, with good reason. I think it disappeared before Blue Mountain opened and became a pizza place? I once bought a carton of milk from the deli and when I opened it, it was solid. I did get my money back though.

      How late is your Christmas Card

      By Sue · Posted

      But when was it posted?! I haven't posted any this year. I can't bring myself to pay the exorbitant cost of the stamps, and at least I can sort of honestly blame it on illness. If I can't hand deliver them, I send e-cards. I know it's not the same, but it's very much easier. And as for the people who still send pages of closely handwritten letters .... very admirable in terms of the hours it must have taken them to write them,  but they remind me of those spoofs eg x has just passed all their many important exams with the highest marks possible, y has just walked round the world in a week, z has just become the first person ever to be knighted twice, we are about to fly off for our fifteenth exotic holiday this year ....... Or else (or sometimes and) they are full of who has had what illnesses and accidents and other catastrophes. Is this just my relatives and distant friends? Am I somehow attracting these reams of handwritten paper?
