Way ahead of you on that, , posted on Saturday night.

I'm a Liverpool supporter from South London so can't claim to support my local team. Can only claim that I got interested when I lived in Liverpool.

Yes.

I always remember watching a Scottish cup match between the old firm on telly in the late 90s and some loon was being stretchered out of the crowd having fallen from the top tier to the crowd below. He was still fist pumping from his stretcher and I remember sitting thinking "what a bunch of total nutters! ".

Ha - that wasn't a Scottish Cup match. It was the day Rangers won the league at Parkhead.

Same day the ref was hit by a coin from the Celtic fans and had to be treated on the pitch. Same day three Celtic fans invaded the pitch to try and get at the referee. Said referee also had his windows smashed in at his home after the game.

I remember sitting down to watch that Celtic Rangers match. Sky sports said and your referee for todays crucial game is Hugh Dallas. My mate turned to me and said "forget about it now Mick". How right he was.


Throwing a pound coin is a big expense for a Celtic fan. Id say it paid dividends except Dallas got up and looking through his bandages gave Rangers a penalty about 30 seconds later. Hugh wasn't about to let a bit of blood get in the way of his mission that day.


Rangers fans after the match were talking of getting Dallas 12 shirts printed for the next season. Read that just now on a Rangers forum (and got out alive)

Don't let the fact we absolutely battered you that day get in the way of a good old conspiracy theory.

      Chango - New local gem alert!

      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."
