I'm a lot more excited about this season than I have been for a few years, what with the arrival of Torres at Liverpool!


However, I suspect after a couple of matches I'll be writing off another title charge! We just seem to be incapable of consistency!


Always feel quite confident about getting somewhere in the cups though, I do think we're one of the better cup sides."





Well Torres didn't disappoint (for a couple of seasons at least). And I think we got to the CL Final that year.

Good grief! Mick, How'd you find that?


Dear Santa,


I'll tell you what I want what I really really want - I want Tottenham Hotspur to win the treble this season. Premiership, FA Cup and Champions League.


Not much to ask I know but would be much appreciated.


All my lunch,


Jah. x

I thought I'd save you the effort Ots... ;-)


I was impressed with Mocker's first post, straight in with a big-up for the Hamlet way before it was Hip(ster) to do so...

Over the page - because I have just watched Euro 1996 and Jahs OP about McLaren perhaps puts 2016 in perspective

New Celtic signing Moussa Dembele tells it how it is.... :)


Ironically, Dembele could have been hearing the Champions League anthem at White Hart Lane. Tottenham Hotspur wanted the striker last January. ?It was between the clubs to get an agreement and they didn?t,? said Dembele. ?At the time, it was disappointing, now, I have to say ?thanks? because this is a better opportunity for me. First, Celtic is a bigger club in Europe than Tottenham.


?I know I could earn more somewhere else, but I wouldn?t have the opportunity to play. A club like Celtic does not come along often in your life.?

I don't think that's such a bad thing. He knows the job and if it wasn't for Beckham getting sent off in '98 we could have quite possibly gone a lot further in that competition. I know he wasn't known for his man management skills but I'd hope that he has learnt from that. Glenn's a very talented coach and the players will have respect for him. I'd have liked to have seen Southgate given the job but he doesn't want it.

And that's it in a nutshell. He'd only be a bit part player at Spurs.

Sam's the Man.........has a ring about it. On the change in fortunes with the rugby team that MM referred to, a lot has got to be down to Eddie Jones not taking any s**t. You're either on form for your club or you're not selected. I wish the same approach was applied to football where it just seems that the manager is 'friends' with the players and shows them 'loyalty'. Well eff that. You want to play for your country then earn it. There shouldn't be any brownie points earned to be used when you are semi recovered from an injury or a bit off form. England needs someone with a mouth to manage the team. Maybe even Sam.

Yep, that was my line of thinking

    • You implied he did a good job in your first paragraph when you said you would have hated to see Corbyn lead the country through Covid - the alternative being Johnson, presumably? With the results we all saw. Unite - you have a problem with unions? Who work hard to see that their members get a fair deal in their workplace? How exactly are these people and groups "all as bad as each other"? In what way? Labour "purging their party of the far-left" has given us a weak prime minister who has apparently deserted any "left" (aka caring for other people and having decent moral principles) leanings he ever had. Which is why people appear to be leaving Labour in droves and voting, or intending to vote, Green or Lib Dem or for an independent Left candidate. Starmer has shot himself in the foot, in my opinion. But what would I know. What worked?! I don't know enough about what you are talking about to comment, but "believing" you know the reason someone did something does not make it true. I don't believe that Corbyn ever got "starstruck" or "forgot about his politics", but if you can provide evidence that those things are true, then fair enough. I don't think you can, though.
    • I think you need to get a grip If it's who I am thinking of, she's a young black girl in her twenties, has braids with bright colours through them and - I suspect - works with her father. It's always the same man behind the wheel and he's older than her, always in the same van, so I'm assuming it's a father-daughter combo which, if it is, I think is rather sweet.  They hustle hard in a job that is poorly paid, has little prospects, is relentless and thankless. The fact that they have stuck it out since the pandemic says a lot about them.  I think she's a lovely girl, who's perhaps a little shy - but she'll smile or chat back if you make the effort with her. And I admire her for sticking with that job for so long. Perhaps she's just one of these people who's naturally a bit clumsy or bashes things, the same way some people are heavy on their feet when they walk. But I wouldn't dream of jeopardising her job because she closes the slams the gate and doesn't 'kiss' the ring doorbell with her fingers.  Perhaps she's being passive aggressive because you are. And perhaps she also wishes she got to spend her time worrying about potential damage to her letterbox or her gate.  As for your gate / letterbox - you're talking about hypotheticals. Has there been any damage? No. Then go and live your life and worry about it when it happens.  (apols we have the wrong person, but some of my points still stand). 
    • Greg did an amazing job! He built a cabinet in my living room and added shelving. A lovely guy and perfectionist who goes the extra mile. He really understands what you want and comes up with various options to meet your price range. Would highly recommend!
    • I love the fact that virtually everyone held their hands out when furlough payments were made yet can't equate massive debt with massive cash payments to keep the economy ticking over.
