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.

      Cllr Williams to stand down

      By Sue · Posted

      First of all, conversations with people who aren't Corbyn supporters are obviously going to tell you why those people didn't vote for him, aren't they? Second (and I don't know why I have to keep on saying this) the electoral system worked against him in terms of seats lost. If you look at the actual numbers of votes per party, yes Labour was behind, but not by as much as it appeared if just seats were counted. Thirdly, that poll was of "nearly 500" people who stopped voting Labour. That's not a very big sample, is it? Of those, 35% said it was because of Jeremy Corbyn's leadership (i.e. 65% had other reasons). Even upping the numbers to  500 people, 35% is 175. 10,269,051  people did actually vote Labour in that election. It's a long time since I used statistics for anything, so please correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't think anything you have said is "evidence"!

      Dog Kennel Hill School to change name

      By Earl Aelfheah · Posted

      Dog kennel isn't a great name for a school. I agree that it's ridiculous for the name to put anyone off going there, but don't see any issue with them rebranding if the parents and children prefer a new name. The school is surrounded by historical 'groves' (reflected in the names of Camberwell Grove, Grove park and Grove Vale for example), so it's not a totally random name.

      Nasty kids in Peckham Park

      By Angelina · Posted

      It might help if there are body cams to record evidence and a presence maybe a deterrent but I very much doubt a park warden would intervene with obnoxious and violent thugs - children or not. We need police for that.

      NIKO THE PLUMBER

      By DAVID CANNON · Posted

      I had a leaky toilet cistern and Niko came out the same day and not only fixed the leak but thoroughly cleaned off the years of calcium build-up. His attention to detail was matched by his kind humanity. The result was a completely renovated toilet which has never worked more efficiently as well as 'service with a smile'. MANY THANKS NIKO!!!
