Only yesterday I was reading about Stan Collymore and his bouts of depression. Seems he Tweeted a lot about it in the last few days. I sometimes hear him on the radio and as a pundit I quite like him but I would never have guessed he had such a dark side.


No idea if Gary Speed had similar problems. Just seems such a shame to take your own life.

The death of a truly great professional overshadows all of the football played over the weekend. Couldn't careless about the results. By all accounts a nicer human being you could not meet, and a truly disciplined professional which is why he managed to play at such a high level for so long. R.I.P. Gary Speed, condolences to his family.
I thought the Leeds fans were as maginificent as the Chelsea fans, or a section of them any way, were despicable. To sing about the death of fans at Hillsborough was deplorable. I have a work colleague who is a Chelsea fan who went to the game and is ashamed of her association with the club because of them.

Yes the Arsenal reserves certainly gave your ?120 millions worth of signings a run for their money. I only realised Na$ri was on the pitch when the boos were ringing out when he touched the ball, otherwise he was anonymous. What agood buy he's turned out to be. As for out singing, are you sure, you only started to sing when you scored. Please don't start doing a Man Ure on us.


Well done Palace, thoroughly deserved win.

Well I was at White Hart Lane last night and although we mostly had our kids out I was still disappointed with the result. I could say the Europa League is a hindrance to the bread and butter of the Premiership but I want to win every game whether it's the Europa League or Carling Cup. Any competition is worth winning. Too many clubs are more interested in finishing in the first four of the Premiership to get in to the Champions League than actually winning anything because of the money that can be earned for the club. Ask yourselves - would you rather finish 4th in the league or win something? I know what my answer is. Football is about the glory, about winning something. Trophies in the cabinet and winning medals.
Following, supporting a club, being a fan, call it what you will, is not JUST about glory, winning titles etc. If that were true, most of us wouldn't bother. Your team is with you for life, through thick and thin. Of COURSE its nice to win title, and of course its nice to win trophies, but would anyone of you EDFers really walk away from your beloved team during fallow periods? I can't believe you would.

    • Eh? That wasn't "my quote"! If you look at your post above,it is clearly a quote by Rockets!
    • Exactly what I said, that Corbyn's group of univeristy politics far-left back benchers would have been a disaster during Covid if they had won the election. Here you go:  BBC News - Ex-union boss McCluskey took private jet flights arranged by building firm, report finds https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/cp3kgg55410o The 2019 result was considered one of the worst in living memory for Labour, not only for big swing of seats away from them but because they lost a large number of the Red-wall seats- generational Labour seats. Why? Because as Alan Johnson put it so succinctly: "Corbyn couldn't lead the working class out of a paper bag"! https://youtu.be/JikhuJjM1VM?si=oHhP6rTq4hqvYyBC
    • Agreed and in the meantime its "joe public" who has to pay through higher prices. We're talking all over the shop from food to insurance and everything in between.  And to add insult to injury they "hurt " their own voters/supporters through the actions they have taken. Sadly it gets to a stage where you start thinking about leaving London and even exiting the UK for good, but where to go????? Sad times now and ahead for at least the next 4yrs, hence why Govt and Local Authorities need to cut spending on all but essential services.  An immediate saving, all managerial and executive salaries cannot exceed and frozen at £50K Do away with the Mayor of London, the GLA and all the hanging on organisations, plus do away with borough mayors and the teams that serve them. All added beauracracy that can be dispensed with and will save £££££'s  
    • The minimum wage hikes on top of the NICs increases have also caused vast swathes of unemployment.
