Apart from AY being shot this week, a lot of stuff about United seems to be focusing on how boring they are to watch. This appears to come from the Moyes watchers who are awaiting the fall of the Empire. In my opinion United have for the most part been boring in CL matches away from home for some time now when it was more a case of ensuring they didn't lose than having to win. Not attractive to watch, though I actually thought this weeks game was one of their better ones.


As I'm not an avid watcher of other teams in the CL, do you think most group matches are more of an endurance test than entertainment?

Er. No they didn't. Not a poppy in site.

It's a shame that county decided to fold to the lowest of your fans knowing that a silence would be spoilt.

Pretty poor week for the reputation of 'the greatest fans in the world'.

You'd think they'd still respect the dead to be honest. I think that was a poor decision.

Maybe an interesting history lesson for some. Without the famine there may not have been a Glasgow Celtic or indeed Hibernian or Dundee United in Scotland. I'm not advocating disrespecting the dead of the great wars but there are historical reasons involved that make it a complex question as to why some choose to. Personally I think people should be able to keep quiet for a minute as a mark of respect to those who it means something to.


I can't explain the following though:

    • Missing Cat! 11 months old/ Our friend, Coco, has gone missing. Last seen evening of 31st October near top of Henslowe rd where it meets Underhill Rd in SE22. We know she has started wandering up Friern Rd and further we guess but we imagine she has been spooked by Halloween / Fireworks goings on. She is a grey Siberian mix with some brown stripes down her, very friendly and likes to eat. Please let us know
    • That said, organised displays could be on Saturday before and after and the actual day, and private ones could just not have the loud ones.  It’s all down to accessibility and people caring/not caring
    • The problem this year is that 5th November falls on a Wednesday. So some places will be bringing their "bonfire night" forward to Saturday 1st and some will be knocking it back to Saturday 8th and there'll probably be a few that just go with Wednesday 5th anyway. If you're doing a public display, having it on a weekend gets more crowds. Which basically means a solid week of fireworks.
    • Fireworks in this area do feel totally incessant at this time of year, almost every evening there is terrible noise. I feel great concern for wildlife, pets (I have a senior cat who hates them), as well as people who struggle with PTSD etc. Last year I even had people setting them off in front of my home. Tonight and yesterday evening have been particularly bad. Is there anything we can do as a community to prevent this? What action can we take? Surely we shouldn’t be expected to just put up with it every year for weeks on end!
