From what I hear and read there's going to be a delivery of veg to OT very soon.

Levy's thinking ahead and avoiding compo by only offering Mourinho a 3-year contract, 2 years of improvement before he presses the self-destruct button in the third year. It would also be very Spursy if the manager who always wins a trophy wherever he goes wins booger all... :)
I think Mourinho simply wanted to return to football in London. This is not about Spurs at all. In a past interview he's mentioned his admiration for London in contrast to Manchester. It wouldn't surprise me at all if he was also in contact with Arsenal who decided to stick with Emery. Wisely? Not sure. I don't dislike Mourinho.
Never really got this living in London ting when it comes to football managers and players, Mourinho's one of the exceptions in that he actually lives in central London, but most other managers and players live miles out in the sticks, the training grounds are miles away too. Once a fortnight they get bussed in to play at home and then they fook off back to their mock tudor mansions and cosy restaurants in Esher. The same applies to Manchester, so not having a dig at London...

I used to work in Esher many moons ago. I remember there were 3 pubs. I don't remember any restaurants. Pub grub maybe?

Wales fans already planning another long journey


"Wales are guaranteed to be drawn into either Group A - with matches played in Rome or Baku, Azerbaijan, or Group B - with matches played in Copenhagen and St Petersburg."


The fake Russian embassy twitter account has already told some they are welcome in St Petersburg if it's there without visa's (might or might not be true)

    • 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.
