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.

Ah, apologies. I get you.

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.

    • Apologies on the tardy reply, but thank you everyone for your responses and suggestions! Unfortunately I couldn't attend the recent EDF drinks because of work (I know right). But will absolutely keep eyes peeled for the next one and try and come down! 
    • Because of the weather which delayed completion with roofer only being able to work certain days, it was up from November - end of January. Went slightly higher than gutters (we also had guttering replaced).
    • It's tough being a courier and the pay which is largely based on the number they deliver is miserable. Hence the staff turnover is high. EFRI was previously branded as HERMES but they had to create a new brand name because of poor performance. We get regular courier deliveries and EVRI are by far the worst. They just drop the parcel at the front door - often without ringing the bell. But worst is when they deliver to the equivalent door number on LL instead of ours on EDG. Best are ParcelForce, DHL and DPD by a wide margin.
    • I know the couple you mean, and she has always been friendly and smiley when delivering to me, but obviously in a hurry, for all the reasons outlined in the thread. My gate is always open, however (unless someone coming to the house closes it when they leave). I can't see the point of gates that have to be opened and shut again every time someone comes to the house. It just seems a waste of time, and it's annoying if you are carrying stuff. And a closed gate  conveys a sort of "my house is my fortress" feel. To me, anyway.
