I only posted because I spotted a City reference from one of you glory seekers... We're your new obsession. Enjoy your Thursday nights on Channel 5.

Read what I wrote. Nothing to do with offers for players. All to do with timing. On Friday RM said that it was difficult to lose a player on deadline day. Tell that to Wigan...

Don't dispute what you say Ots, but that's a separate issue and wasn't my point, see above...

Chelsea had lots of chances to score but didn't - also they should have been down to 10 men for Ramirez elbow on Larsson

Chelsea got lucky when they were given a penalty in their home game against West Brom, these decisions tend to even themselves out over a season, although I don't think Steve Clarke will think that.


BFS is the guest on Sky's Goals on Sunday programme. More irony. I'm surprised no journalist has ever let slip a BFS during an interview...''So Big Fat Sam, welcome to the programme, what did you think of the game yesterday?...''

Allardyce claimed the boos were understandable because "no one likes losing" - like it was all down to missed chances and bad luck on the day, that it was the result that made fans unhappy -


They booed you when you won too you two-faced hypocritical swivel-eyed git.


They booed because first it was Stoke handing out a beating while playing more attractive football, then their former manager doing it with Palace.


As for Hansen and Shearer on MOTD with their "What is the West Ham Way anyway?" and "Sam's safe" - perfect examples of smug out-of-touch tossers who earn their living from the game and have absolutley no idea what it's like to be a fan.

Yet another record tumbles to the genius that is David Moyes. In his post match interview he thought the team played well, which as Jamie Carragher said, is worrying...''I must have been watching a different match''


What Atticus said about 'pool, although I think there is at least one more twist in the tale. Would like to see Everton get in the CL, but can't see Arsenal dropping any more points...

      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."

      You've got a point.  Thinking Leyland and Screwfix too but this felt different.
