Also gutted I wasn't at the Lane yesterday. I didn't have enough membership loyalty points and gave myself a budget of ?400 to get a ticket online. In the end that would've paid for about half a ticket.



Still, some great memories from the 35 years i've been going and seen some amazing players in that time (Hoddle- the greatest, Ardiles, Mabbutt, Lineker, Gazza, Waddle, Ginola, Klinsmann, Sheringham, Ledley King, Bale, Modric, Peter Crouch, Eriksen, Kane, Alli).

I dunno. The bookies pre-season odds were like a lot of the predictions. They had Spurs as 6th favourites for the league, behind the rest of the top 6. They assumed that City and United would both improve under Pep and Maureen as we all probably did. They probably thought that Klopp, in his second season, would impress more particularly with no european football as a distraction.

You'll be in Europe next year too!


I think next season Man U will be competitive again, Chelsea clearly,Spuds if they keep Ponch and key players...Arsenal may well not be in Champions League which could help; Guardiola should turn City round - can't see Liverpool being Champs. Sorry Otts

Will be interesting to see how this is interpreted - probably it will have to be very obvious, but imo should include "anticipating a challenge" where people fall into a goalkeeper's arm etc, which they could easily have avoided ...its becoming ridiculous


I blame Anders Limpar for the whole thing.

Agreed.


Also, apparently Mr Redknapp told the Birmingham powers that be that he didn't want paying if he didn't keep them up.

Agreed. He earned a rep at Everton, but when you look at them since he left you have to wonder if he wasn't holding them back a bit.

      Is Rachel Reeves becoming the new Liz Truss?

      By CPR Dave · Posted

      It took the Tories 14 years to dig that 20bn blackhole. It's taken Labour 14 months to double it.  You cant get rid of Reeves though because the next person will actually be totally incompetent. There are no MPs in Labour capable of performing better than the current shower.

      Thanks P. That sounds like a bargain compared to other horror stories I've heard!

      Is Rachel Reeves becoming the new Liz Truss?

      By jazzer · Posted

      DD, "Rejoice rejoice. It's a pity he and his fellow clowns were completely annihilated at the ballot box. I mean they were doing so well after all 🙃🙃" At least the economy and unemployment weren't in the mess they are now. What is it, give the public sector a whopping pay increase with no strings attached, double the black hole and then blame it on the last Govt. Give me strength. Rachel from accounts shouldn't be anywhere near the economy. The final straw was increasing employer NI contributions and look how that's worked out. Month on month both inflation and unemployment have risen. Won't be long before inflation and u/e are exceeding 5%, but guess what, They'll blame Sunak and go.  Lets have a snap election right NOW, then see how poorly Starmer, Reeves and Rainer do. They're already plotting to get rid of Starmer, and if you think its bad now, you ain't seen nothing yet. Oh and did I mention Starmer wanting to stop Freedom of Speech............................................Normal people can see right through what him and co are doing, great at spending other peoples money, him and co don't have = bankruptcy. We'll just repeat the economic collapse that happened in Greece and wasn't it in Italy as well?

      Seeking an English Lit A Level tutor to focus on Othello

      By Pugwash · Posted

      One of the best of Shakespeare 's plays.  I did Othello for A level. Also seen a number of stage and film versions. Is there any specific aspects of the play that is difficult for your daughter to understand?
