It's quite a sensible move by Levy though still a bit of a gamble. He needed to appoint someone PDQ. So he promotes someone from within the club to steady the ship. If he's successful he's seen as a genius messiah and if he's not there will be plenty of top class coaches he can go for in the summer after the World Cup. Personally, I'm fed up with flavour of the month managers. Pottechini at Southampton seems to have been found out too. Six games without a win after such a promising start.


A few seasons ago Barcelona appointed from within (Pep Guardiola) someone with no managerial experience and look what happened there. Not saying we're in the same league as them as a club by any stretch of the imagination, just trying to be positive and upbeat about Sherwood's appointment.

Agree it's a sensible move to appoint Sherwood. It's quite feasible that Spurs could be level on points with Liverpool after the next two games. Crisis? What crisis?

With some of the teams above Man Utd having to play each other in the next few games, this is our last chance to get back in the mix. Hoping for more snore draws like last might's match.

Merry Christmas!...

Thought Liverpool looked damn good today despite losing. Pretty much a match for City in all areas of the pitch in what was a very competitive game and really the chances seemed equal, just a keeper error between the team's. Quite impressive I thought and could be in with a shout later in the season.

Another underwhelming performance from Spurs today. Bring back Harry, all is forgiven. And while we're at it, can we have Gareth Bale back too please.


Liverpool, a little unlucky today but they were up against a side who I think will win the title. It's Man City for me.


Anyone else want to make a prediction seeing as we're almost halfway through the season?

Didn't see the City game but from the MoTD highlights Liverpool deserved a draw. It's so tight at the top and bottom it changes week to week, so the January transfer window, injuries, Europe and Cups could have a big say as to who'll win the PL. City should win it based on their current squad, but I have a sneaky feeling Chelsea could nick it, esp if they buy a striker like Falcao in the January window. Liverpool look like genuine challengers, and although I think (hope!) they won't win the PL, they will have a big say who will, as they have to play City, Chelsea, Arsenal, Everton, Newcastle and Spurs at home, where their form is very good. The problem Utd have is that we are playing catch-up with 4 teams, not just one. One or two of them might implode but not all four. I think (hope!) we'll get top 4 at the expense of Arsenal and/or Liverpool.

At the bottom I can see Cardiff and Palace going down, purely based on their limited quality and size of squad, together with lack of PL experience, which leaves 1 from about 6 teams for the other spot. Most years a team goes on a bad end of season run and gets sucked into the mire, and I have a hunch this year it'll be Norwich...sorry Delia

I did some swotting on this, as though City are the obvious choice they haven't been that good away from home. They have played each of the other top 8 teams once. Results, 6 wins, 1 defeat. The only defeat was the only game they played away from home. So they have 6 'top 8' away games to come.


Contrast that to Liverpool and Chelsea, who have only played 1 home game each and thus have 6 more to come. Also given that Liverpool have no CL distractions, are good at home and do pick up points on the road, I'll plump for them. I wouldn't bet on it though.

Key is WBA game - lose that and Sam will be out.


Malky, Pepe Mel & Harry all seem to be in the frame.


Not looking good for hanging on to Ravel Morrison either with this ridiculous "West Ham have to quadruple his wages if there's a ?10 mill offer for him or sell him" http://www.telegraph.co.uk/sport/football/teams/west-ham/10539972/West-Ham-face-losing-Ravel-Morrison-over-extraordinary-clause-for-concern.html


Predictions - Chelsea to win Premier, Man C & Liverpool 2nd & 3rd with Arsenal pipping a demoralised Man U into 4th.


Irons to be relegated with Sam and survive without him.

    • Where did I say he did a good job? Yup and Corbyn was very close to Len McCluskey and funded by Unite wasn't he...they're all as bad as each other... Labour have to purge their party of the far-left - they're a disaster. Allan Johnson summed it up so well on election night in 2019....  
    • Thank you for the detailed advise @trinidad It is definitely damage we are concerned about. I don’t think Evri would agree to pay the bill to fix our gate or letter box if they were to be damaged as a result of their delivery drivers helper. Our doorbell can be heard from outside when rung so we don’t quite believe the aggressive simultaneous door/letter box banging is necessary. It can be quite a shock it is done very aggressively.  I’ll definitely action the steps you’ve kindly provided along with a phone call tomorrow. I do sympathise with the role drivers have and how busy they are, which is why we tried communicating directly with her but sadly we haven’t succeeded 
    • What outcome would you like? Disciplinary action? Not to have the driver back? Retraining? I know there is alot of pressure on drivers to deliver within a set day. if he slams the gate, is it evidence he is causing damage, or is the noise a irritant to yourself? You could put a sign up or buy a signing asking to close the gate gentle???? can you hear the door bell from the door? he might be ringing, not hearing and therefore knocking. In trhe notes section of the be livery page, there is a note section, although there is not 100 per cent these notes would be read as these drivers are constantly rushing.  I did a google search for you, i found this and you can try the envri website Contact Us | Evri   To complain to Evri, you can follow these steps: Contact Customer Service: Call Evri's customer service at 0330 808 5456 for assistance with your complaint.    1 Write a Letter: Address your complaint to Capitol House, 1 Capitol Close, Morley, Leeds, West Yorkshire, LS27 0WH.    1 Use the Official Website: Visit the Evri complaints page on their official website for detailed instructions on how to submit a complaint.    2 Email or Call for Specific Issues: For issues like missing or damaged parcels, you can email or call 0800 988 8888, which is free to call.    1 These methods will help you effectively communicate your concerns to Evri.   My driver is called anthony, he is brilliant to be honest. I cant fault him.
    • When I have more time and energy, I will look up the actual number of votes cast for each party in that election, rather than the number of seats won. I'm interested to see that you apparently  think that  Boris Johnson did a good job of "leading the country through Covid." Is your memory really that short? I won't stoop to calling Johnson and his cronies names in the way that you seem to think is appropriate for left wing politicians. At least the left wing politicians have some semblance of morals and a concern for people who aren't in some over privileged inner circle and/or raking in money for themselves on the back of an epidemic. I'm not going to open a can of worms on here  by commenting on the disgraceful so called "purge".
