I don't like to see any club in this sort of predicament, well maybe there's one I'd like to see dopwn the toilet but that's something else. I feel for Pompey because at least they have a good loyal following. I hope they survive but I still think we'll get the result tonight.

Well if they do get wound up then Liverpool will be 3 points better off as nearly every other top team has beaten them and will be deducted those points. Of course Pompey will survive with some 11th hour rescue as usually seems to happen.


As for the Villa Liverpool game last night I got more enjoyment ironing my shirts and that was dull! Hopefully that late winner will galvanize Liverpool into a charge up the table.


On another note who was the real Footballer of the Year? i.e. 1st Jan 2009 to 31st Dec 2009. I had previously not been convinced but over the last 12 months my choice has been ripping up trees and is now a firm favourite on the Kop with his ability, stamina and mentality... no not Dirk Kuyt but actually someone who can play football, step forward Yossi Benayoun!

I was thinking about what Mathew says too. If Pompey do go under then their matches are void which makes a fair differnce at the top Man U/Chelsea/Totts and Arsenal have all beaten them I think, whereas Liverpool lost. We've only won 4 games and as one is Pompey I'm really hoping they stay afloat.....


Joking aside it would be terrible if a proper club like Pompey go to the wall.

Saw that this morning on telly - why Liverpool didn't meet the ?5m asking price (like Man U, Everton & Arsenal) and instead blew ?7m on Dossena is an absolute joke.


Looks like Rangers are running away with the SPL - 10 men and they still won 7-1!

"Just shows you how poor the SPL is."


Whoops - that was Atila's point not Matt's - sorry Matt.

Good point Declan...


Rangers have hit a brilliant bit of form Mic Mac. Anything but 3 points for Celtic on Sunday will see Mowbray under a sever amount of pressure.

It is the first Old Firm game in a long time that I've been confident going into. If Miller's red card is upheld that will be a blow, but I feel Rangers will win comfortably.


3-1.

I think Mowbray is a limited manager. He got lots of praise last season for perservering with West Brom's short passing game, but where did it get them in the end? He had no plan B when they were embroiled in a desperate relegation battle. Now at Celtic he seems to be doing the same again.

I think Martinez may be next for the chop. He's fallen into the Tony Mowbray syndrome of trying to get a group of sub standard footballers to 'play' their way out of the relegation dogfight. Better to take a leaf out of Tony Pulis' book. It's not pretty, but it's effective.

      Yes they do, but that is not the core tenet of representative democracy. At that level, we are voting for a parliamentary representative, irregardless of whether parties exist or not. It's why candidates can stand as independents.

      Sadly I think you will never convince people like this. They think gardens have to be kept chopped back and controlled. My theory is that this comes from being (or trying to be) controlling in every aspect of their lives, so I doubt if anything you could say or show them would have any effect. But are they actually coming into your garden or leaning over into it and pulling up/damaging things? If so, maybe one of our community police people could have a word with them?

      Dear Nature lovers - advice please. I am being harassed by a neighbour who doesn't like my standard of gardening which she calls 'messy'. (I have rewilded my garden with advice from the London Wildlife Trust and a gardening expert from The Times.) I have twice caught this neighbour and her husband pulling up my plants and damaging my trees. Plus she has photographed my house, and sent a dozen complaints to the Dulwich Estate about my plan to rewild the verge outside my property - approved by the Estate some 4 years ago in line with their stated policy of supporting biodiversity in and around Dulwich. What can I do to introduce these neighbours  to the benefits to us all of returning a portion of our gardens to nature?
