Read these yeasterday, and thought they were both fair and honest views on the Liverpool / Woy thing.


Phil McNulty Blog


Lawro's column


Think they both highlight where Woy failed, but also where he was let down. Seem fair, and pretty much sum up my feelings on it.


Anyway, all over nw, and lets hope Kenny lives up to the status that he is given at Liverpool. I just hope this isn't similar t "King Kev's" return to Newcastle...

Was at the Emirates yesterday with Sean McG and BellendenBelle.


Firstly, it's easily the best stadium I've ever been to. The views, even from our slightly odd corner position were phenomenal and for mid-Jan the pitch was in superb condition. Arsenal fans were friendly enough but the stereotype of being a bit on the quiet side is indeed true - the atmosphere is a little "subdued" when they aren't playing well.


Leeds played as equals except for the last ten minutes of each half when we were under the cosh. I've seen Leeds play better recently but for the most part, Arsenal were abject. None of their players seem to want it.


A draw was probably a fair result all-in-all and I went away happy if a little deflated that we so nearly had another Premier League scalp for the second season running. Walcott let himself down although I missed the dive itself. Arshavin had a shocker and was on the receiving end of a hell of a lot of abuse from his own fans. The Leeds travelling fans made a LOT of noise as usual. We'll look forward to the replay at Elland Road.

So will berbatov do a Theo and admit it? Unlikely



But gerrard was a straight red for a shocking tackle


None of this is kennys fault btw but you don't need to possess a vivid imagination to paint a picture if Roy was still in charge and these events were playing out in the same way.

Not as many as Rooney, Berbatov ,Nani and previously Forlan, Van Nistleroy, the fake Ronaldo. And they have the neck to point the finger at others.

Not many stand out ties in 4th round. Southampton v ManU has echoes of the 1976 final; Everton v Chelsea looks the most interesting of the all-PL games and Fulham can try and get revenge on Spurs for last year's QF (talking of revenge, have West Ham and Forest met in the Cup since the 1991 semi?).


Happy with Coventry at home - should see us through to 5th round.

I've seen tackles like that, week in week out, commited by all clubs, most go unpunished or get a yellow card. This one was old traffordish. Had a similar taclkle been made by Carrick on Stevie G he wouldn't have walked.

*yawn*


Are you a little sore that Arsenal couldn't get a result yesterday?


If we are going to talk diving there's a long tradition of it from your boys. :)


I thought United played well today. It was a bit of a dull game, which was a shame, but it could have been a banana skin what with Kenny's return etc. Glad to have got it out of the way.

United played well? Really? What game were you watching? As for a long tradition don't make me laugh. Pires maybe, thats about it. The Manc list is a yard long. Same onld Mnacs, old traffordish decisons yet again. Like I said had Carrick felled Stevie G in a similar mannner, he wouldn't have walked. And your yawn is as boring as watching your team, and yep, you've biten once again.

    • Hello! We are relocating abroad and so will be withdrawing our two children (ages 4 and 6) from St Dunstan’s College (Catford). If any family is considering enrolling children of a similar age, now would be an excellent opportunity—we’re required to pay full‑term fees unless the places are taken. Please get in touch if you’re interested or know someone who might be. Thank you!
    • Hi  I really thought I'd seen a more recent post on the forum about home education meet ups. I can't find it though. Hope some of these might provide leads. https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/137603-home-schooling-advice-anyone-wants-to-do-it-together/#comment-1092093 Very old post but group seems still to exist: https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/92044-home-education-local-group/#comment-954837 You could try contacting this forum member: https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/325368-classroom-support-for-home-education-community/#comment-1621064 Two of these left for right now: https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/events/event/1025-🌟-teens-11-try-painting-sculpture-street-art-at-holiday-workshops/
    • Thanks for your reply. I’ve subscribed to Ancestry a few times in the past but felt I wasn’t using it enough to warrant keeping up the subscription.    
    • Hi, I saw your post and just wanted to say that the incident you’re referring to did happen in the late 1980s at Dawson’s Heights. The person involved was named Carl Salawa, and he had just turned 18 years old at the time. Like you, I haven’t been able to find any news articles or official reports about it, If anyone remembers anything more about that time or incident, I’d really appreciate hearing about it. Thanks for sharing what you were told—it means a lot to know others remember.
