Wasn't banking on a 0-5 home defeat having drawn away. Good luck Celtic.

It's BFS banking his excuses early - probably crocked him himself.


In my newly acquired state of optimism I believe this will force Allardyce to do things differently - maybe play the ball on the ground and use Valencia and Z?rate together to create the Premiership's most prolific striking partnership*.


By the way - WTF is Cole still doing there!?




*makes note to renew prescription

Drogba will be back up for Costa. He won't play every match or do many 90mins stints, but he'll get Chelsea a dozen or so goals which is more than their strikers managed last season...the reason why they didn't win the league. On current standing I'd have them as favs to win the league...

This! No one thinks Drogba has been brought in to be number one. And next summer I expect them to bring another striker in.

Torres is still there because nobody is willing to take on an ageing striker who has failed spectaculary in the last 3 or so years.

Remy was favourite to come to the Arsenal at one point, perhaps Arsene knew something that put him off.

Massive, massive debt (apparently). Feel for the So'ton fans - would try the patience of a saint.

Agreed. Hope we don't start the season with Sturridge and Borini as our strike force!

If he's such a "steal" how is it none of the other big clubs have near nor by? Just asking

    • And now we have the worst labour government in many many decades who by moving to your position on the right are ushering in a far right reform government. Well done you.
    • You implied he did a good job in your first paragraph when you said you would have hated to see Corbyn lead the country through Covid - the alternative being Johnson, presumably? With the results we all saw. Unite - you have a problem with unions? Who work hard to see that their members get a fair deal in their workplace? How exactly are these people and groups "all as bad as each other"? In what way? Labour "purging their party of the far-left" has given us a weak prime minister who has apparently deserted any "left" (aka caring for other people and having decent moral principles) leanings he ever had. Which is why people appear to be leaving Labour in droves and voting, or intending to vote, Green or Lib Dem or for an independent Left candidate. Starmer has shot himself in the foot, in my opinion. But what would I know. What worked?! I don't know enough about what you are talking about to comment, but "believing" you know the reason someone did something does not make it true. I don't believe that Corbyn ever got "starstruck" or "forgot about his politics", but if you can provide evidence that those things are true, then fair enough. I don't think you can, though.
    • I think you need to get a grip If it's who I am thinking of, she's a young black girl in her twenties, has braids with bright colours through them and - I suspect - works with her father. It's always the same man behind the wheel and he's older than her, always in the same van, so I'm assuming it's a father-daughter combo which, if it is, I think is rather sweet.  They hustle hard in a job that is poorly paid, has little prospects, is relentless and thankless. The fact that they have stuck it out since the pandemic says a lot about them.  I think she's a lovely girl, who's perhaps a little shy - but she'll smile or chat back if you make the effort with her. And I admire her for sticking with that job for so long. Perhaps she's just one of these people who's naturally a bit clumsy or bashes things, the same way some people are heavy on their feet when they walk. But I wouldn't dream of jeopardising her job because she closes the slams the gate and doesn't 'kiss' the ring doorbell with her fingers.  Perhaps she's being passive aggressive because you are. And perhaps she also wishes she got to spend her time worrying about potential damage to her letterbox or her gate.  As for your gate / letterbox - you're talking about hypotheticals. Has there been any damage? No. Then go and live your life and worry about it when it happens.  (apols we have the wrong person, but some of my points still stand). 
    • Greg did an amazing job! He built a cabinet in my living room and added shelving. A lovely guy and perfectionist who goes the extra mile. He really understands what you want and comes up with various options to meet your price range. Would highly recommend!
