I read that this morning and thought "Damn, just as he's getting old enough for me to lighten up and give him his due" he does that


Fact his, him takingthose 2-3 players back may well condemn Preston to relegation. And whilst he is within his rights to do it, to do it because a member of his own family got the sack is just nuts. It's conflating family matters with how another club tries to run it's business and is out of line

'Fraid I'm with ???? on this one. The only reason Preston got some Man U reserves/YTS players was due to Fergie Snr. I'd have done the same.


And I'm with ???? again on Spurs being my team of 2010. They make me laugh every time I watch them. Often comic defending aligned with some of the most scintillating attacking play in the league. Van De Fart seems like the bargain of the season and in Bale they have the best left sided player in the league. Bagpuss has done well.


As a Leeds fan, 2010 has been pretty good. We started the year beating Man Utd and got a draw against Spurs in the FA cup before losing the replay. I'm hoping for a repeat against the Gunners next week. Sean and I are off to the Emirates to watch it so back your team carefully! Our league campaign faultered badly in the second half of the season but was enough to see us promoted to the Championship.


This season in 2010 all is well. Despite some shocking results and poor performances we are level on points with automatic promotion spots and the dream of a return to the Premiership in 2011 is starting to look possible.


Marching On Together!

Sean are you actually suprised by Fergusons actions? I'm not. Looking forward to turning Leeds over in the FA cup just like we did on many ocassions which I witnessed home and away when TH14 was still with us, and god (Dennis Bergkamp) walked the earth.

Oh how we hated that Leeds team then but it was against The Arse so still a corker in my book. This current Leeds team though are looking a good side and I watched them at WHL earlier in the season when we beat them in the Cup (I've forgotten the score but I'm sure DC will know). It's time they were back in the Premiership so hope they keep up the good work and get there (Jeez! have I been drinking?

It's one thing to get plaudits about your club playing scintillating, entertaining, attacking football and Spurs have been great to watch but the point is to win something and we've won feck all yet. If I could have one trophy in our cabinet at the end of the season it would be the *European Cup. COYS!



*I can dream can't I?

If you say so, but don't be so presumptious by assuming that I've only followed them recently, I first stood on the North Bank Highbury on Boxing day 1968 and we won 3 - 0, against the mancs. Some of us are not fairweather merchants or glory hunters.


Edited cos I forgot to add the year of my first visit to Highbury.

On the Spurs front I should add my appreciation too


As well as playing some pretty football, there is a genuine spirit (as opposed to the one Arsene is always banging on about in interviews) in the team ? coming back from 2-0 down to beat us is one example. Winning not one but two games over the Christmas period depite being down to 10 men in both is impressive as well


If Arsenal don?t win the CL (oooh yeah Barcelona? shudder) then I?d be happy to see Spurs win it if they carry on at this rate


You get the impression that they are winning over (in admiration terms, not actual changing of allegiance!) many supporters from other teams just as Liverpool appear to be alienating quite a lot of other supporters

    • CPR Dave, attendance records are available on Southwark's website. Maggie Browning has attended 100% of meetings. Jon Hartley has attended 65%.
    • I do hope NOT, wouldn't trust Farage as far as I could throw him, Starmer & co.  He's backed by GB News which focus's predominantly on immigration while the BBC focus predominantly on the Israel - Gazza conflict.   
    • Everyone gets the point that Corbynites try to make with the "total number of votes cast" statistic, it's just a specious one.  In 2017, Corbyn's Labour got fewer votes than May's Tories (both the percentage of votes and aggregate number of votes). In 2019, Corbyn's Labour fewer votes than Johnson's Tories (both the percentage of votes and aggregate number of votes); and he managed to drop 2.7 million votes or 6.9% of vote share between the two elections. I repeat, he got trounced by Boris F***ing Johnson and the Tories after the Brexit omnishambles. It is not true that a "fairer" electoral system would have seen Labour beat the Tories: Labour simply got fewer votes than the Tories. Corbyn lost twice. There is no metric by which he won the general election. His failure to win was a disaster for the UK, and let Johnson and Truss and Sunak into office. Corbynites have to let go of this delusion that Corbyn but really won somehow if you squint in a certain way. It is completely irrelevant that Labour under Corbyn got more votes than Labour under Starmer. It is like saying Hull City was more successful in its 2014 FA Cup Final than Chelsea was in its 2018 FA Cup Final, because Hull scored 2 goals when Chelsea only scored 1. But guess what - Chelsea won its game and Hull City lost. Corbyn's fans turned out to vote for him - but an even larger group of people who found him repellant were motivated enough to show up and vote Tory.
    • I guess its the thing these days to demonstrate an attitude, in this instance seemingly of the negative kind, instead of taking pride in your work and have standards then 🤷‍♀️
