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

    • Callout for help from any local experts here. Looking to find out more about the history of the property on the corner of Whateley Road and Ulverscroft road (with the green glazed bricks). Now a residential property, i'm told it was a bottle shop in days gone (the house was built around 1900) by and i'd like to learn more about the history of the business that was once here - name, photos, anything at all really! Seems to be very little from open source research so i'm hoping anyone with history in the area can provide any insight!  Starting here before i contact Southwark Archives or similar orgs to get any information and pictures (any advice here also would be welcome). Thank you
    • Portable ramps are available for businesses to use in this sort of situation, aren't they? I don't know whether one would be suitable for use here, or whether they have the space to store one. Lots of people have  permanent or temporary disabilities which mean they have to use crutches or a wheelchair.
    • I can’t remember where I read that figure but this article in the Grauniad from 2023 discusses Ocado results from 2022. The average shopping cart fell to £118 from £129 the previous year. But Ocado lost £500m that year on approximately 20 million orders (circa 400k orders per week). So, averaging out to £25 lost per order. Ocado pauses building new warehouses as annual losses balloon to £500m | Ocado | The Guardian  Obviously, the £500m loss includes various factors. But Ocado has existed for 25 years and only made a small profit in a couple of those years. The rest have been huge losses. Yet it continues to raise funds and speculation sends the share price up and down. In that respect,  it’s like the UK version of Tesla. Meanwhile, the main growth in the supermarket sector has been for Aldi and Lidl, who do not deliver.
