Actually my gut feeling is that they don't have a great record of actually winning it after being dropped down from champions league, apart from very recent years.

And as of next year the Europa winners get a champs league spot, which could make it more interesting.


See Rooney is out today, and a doubt for the Bayern match. United supporters must be a bit worried to see that. I imagine he'll play in the week, it's only a bruised toe, surely they can dose him up for the match.

Interesting that one of United's better results comes when several players are apparently be rested for CL. Should some of today's team maybe be considered given the performance?


And will Andy Carroll haunt the pool tomorrow? Jamie Carragher not overly complimentary in the press today which makes me even more worried about the prospect than I akready was.

Don't want to jinx it (honest) but The Irons do sometimes have a knack of spoiling the bigger clubs' ambitions at this end of the season. Let's just hope it's ManC on the final day, eh?

I suppose you can't have it everyway but there have been two 'goal line technology' disallowed goals recently where the margin was minute. The naked eye and the TV camera would certainly not have detected they were not goals. Yesterday the ball must have been 99.99% over the line, if the graphics are anything to go by. Perhaps it should be adjusted to be in line with how a decision would be made by someone in the perfect position to see it, with perfect eyesight. A more sympathetic approach.

Chris Hughton sacked as manager of Norwich City. That's a real panic decision as far as I'm concerned. OK results haven't been that good lately and they have a truly daunting fixture list in their next five games. I can't see how that will make a difference. We'll see though.

Reading the Welsh media Cardiff have given up it seems (sorry to Cardiff fans - but that's what Media Wales portray)


Fulham still fighting and Sunderland with the games in hand (Spurs tonight)


Norwich last 4 leaves them in the mix


Swansea (my team) still act as if they are too good to go down - ominous.

    • I am sure our lovely Evri delivery team, who do a firkin hard job, take the time between drops to read the East Dulwich Forum 🤫
    • For every person like OP that moans their doorbell was rung and there was a knock on the door, there's someone else moaning that they didn't hear the delivery drivers. If you've ever done delivery work you'll know that loads of people's bells don't work. The delivery drivers probably goes to a hundred doors a day: press bell, knock door, drop package, move on. If you don't like delivery drivers, insist on delivery by Royal Mail where the workers have wages and a union - or just stop ordering shit online that's artificially cheap. But most of us (me included) don't want that
    • If someone comes to my house and bangs my door and slams my gate, I'd speak to them about it nicely and ask if they would please not do that. And then subsequently less nicely if they keep doing it, ending in reporting them.  We don't slam doors at home and I don't put up with that either. I can see us moving to a culture where we bribe drivers to be nice by tipping them, but we shouldn't have to. It's not necessary - does not matter if they are on minimum wage or not, or if society means that delivery services are outsourced or whatever reason anyone would like to concoct.     
    • We’ve got a gap on the roof of our shed that needs patching  don’t want to buy a huge roll so hoping someone has some leftover  happy to collect/reimburse
