Well done Wigan, now go down and disappear for all that crap whelan gave the Hammers about Tevez,


I have seen Best, Moore, Charlton, Maradonna and Platini live, which ain't a bad fivesome. I even saw the first three in the same match.


My favourite player ever tho is, for a host of reasons, Alan Devonshire.

Escape to Victory - what a movie. Supposedly Kevin Beattie accepted an arm wresting challenge from Sly Stallone, beat him right and left arm, and Stallone never spoke to him again. There was also a rumour that John Wark's lines were dubbed by a Hungarian extra because his accent was easier to understand.

Not as delighted as every leaden-footed, muscular, centre forward/half/back looking for a club...


ETA: please let the rumours that BFS is looking at Crouch as a Carroll replacement be just rumours.

This.


Couldn't give a toss about Mancini, he'll be fine, and his pockets will be well lined. I just hate the way football is now.


I have an extra copy of this (having received 2 when I ordered it for a Man City fan as a secret santa prsent)

which I'm told is a very very good read about how football is these days. I plan to read it after I've finished the 2 books I'm currently on.

I agree with City - I think achieveable targets shoud be included in footballing contracts. Otherwise they massivly underperform, and get paid massive compensation eg Eriksson's contract extension for England - there is little or no accountibility but there should be.

      GALA 2026

      By first mate · Posted

      In it's own right a free event is potentially a nice idea- although reports from last year were not that positive. But, a free event in this case is not in my view worth the price of continued expansion of this event and privatisation of park space over the summer months.  It will be interesting to see if Southwark has declined to licence the further three days (meaning 7 in all over 2 concecutive weekends). The decision is meant to be in but I cannot find it.

      EDF Six Nations Predictor Game (Rugby)

      By Alan Medic · Posted

      A reminder of how points are scored in the game. Apart from their website, Superbru has a couple of apps, one of which is specifically for rugby. Anyone wishing to join see previous post. There must be some rugby fans in ED who haven't played before!

      A free community event is good, isn't it?

      Tessa Jowell centre car park.

      By Sue · Posted

      This isn't supposed to be a public car park for shoppers though. Surely it's intended for patients who aren't able to get there easily on foot or by public transport? It isn't just the GP practice  there.There are various  clinics, and the blood test place. Some people may be quite ill or have mobility issues. Suppose they can't get a parking space because people have parked there to go shopping? Please don't encourage this!
