Hmmm.... what happened to those rape allegations against him?

Poor Lambert :-(

I can't help but think Liverpool have done exactly what Spurs did last season, sold their best player/top goal scorer and so far have failed to replace him. Yes they've bought in other players, but are any of them going to replicate the 30+ goals which got Liverpool Champions League football? Lambert was bought as a 'Plan B' option, whether Suarez stayed or not. They should be looking at strikers much better than Remy, he's hardly set the world alight at QPR or Newcastle. If he was top quality he wouldn't have ended up going out on loan to the Toon, nothing to do with wage demands etc...

liverpool are in the same difficult position that spurs were in- you just can't adequately replace bale or suarez. The ?40m+ players only tend to go to the very biggest clubs (suarez, rodriguez) or are happy at their current clubs or simply not for sale (muller, neymar, messi, ronaldo, ibrahimovic, cavani, falcao etc).


There just aren't top top players available at around the ?30m mark.

I'm not so sure Ots, it's good news for Toffees that they signed Lukaku and Barry, and have kept Barkley, but all they've done is kept the status quo of their squad from last season, whereas I expect all the other teams around them will improve their squads significantly with new signings...

Not the first footballer to get handy with a woman, but very glad he's spending some time in custody which will hopefully show him that he's not untouchable just because he's an overpaid footballer.


The fact someone like SAF didn't fancy controlling him does say quite a lot.

    • 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.
