I was actually alluding to the recent FA Cup predictions, as that was what myself and moonster were discussing.

Hardly 'utter nonsense'...


3rd round - out of 10 posters you were 9th.

4th round - out of 11 posters you were 10th.

5th round - out of 10 posters you were 8th.

I seem to be in there twice?

No, I've gone with my heart on that one (I was brought up in Saints territory, so predict an away win)


The one I've predicted with my head is a Chelsea win, although my heart lies with Everton.


I usually go for Everton & it pays off but can't see it happening this week.

Was expecting you to post Champs League fixtures today & had them all ready so you couldn't accuse me of posting last!

Or are this weeks matches not included? As I've not done this before, no idea how it works.


Good luck for tonight BTW. Haven't really got time for pistols at dawn because I need my beauty sleep!

    • But all those examples sell a wide variety of things,  and mostly they are well spread out along Lordship Lane. These two shops both sell one very specific thing, albeit in different flavours, and are just across the road from each other. I don't think you can compare the distribution of shops in Roman times to the distribution of shops in Lordship Lane in the twenty first century. Well, you can, but it doesn't feel very appropriate. Haa anybody asked the first shop how they feel? Are they happy about the "healthy competition" ?
    • ED is included in the 17 August closure set (or just possibly 15 August, depending on which part of the page you trust more) listed at https://metro.co.uk/2025/07/25/full-list-25-poundland-stores-confirmed-close-august-23753048/. Here incidentally are some snippets from their annual reports, at https://find-and-update.company-information.service.gov.uk/company/02495645/filing-history. 2022: " during the period we opened 41 stores and closed 43 loss-making/under-performing stores.  At the period-end we were trading from 821 stores in the UK, IoM and ROI. ... "We renogotiated 82 leases in the year, saving on average 45% versus the prior lease agreement..." 2023: "We also continued to improve our market footprint through sourcing better store locations, opening 53 and closing 51 stores during the year." 2024:  "The ex-Wilco stores acquired in the prior year have formed a core part of this strategy to expand our store network.  We favour quality over quantity and during the period we opened 84 stores and closed 71 loss-making/under-performing ones."
    • Ha! After I posted this, I thought of lots more examples. Screwfix and the hardware store? Mrs Robinson and Jumping Bean? Chemists, plant shops, hairdressers...  the list goes on... it's good to have healthy competition  Ooooh! Two cheese shops
    • You've got a point.  Thinking Leyland and Screwfix too but this felt different.
