I don't think that's holds true anymore. The PL is far more competitive than it used to be. If a team is going for the Championship then I agree they have to beat, or at least not lose to the other challengers, but as Chelsea found out last season, it's just as important to not drop points against the so called lesser teams...

On that subject it seems the team who does better against the top teams wins the league. Chelsea were an exception.

United did well away from home last season if you look at the stats. So apart from an awful home record their season might have ended quite differently.

What I like is that he's not throwing them all straight in. Last night's starting line up didn't look too unfamiliar. We were arguably the better side for the first half but made a couple of big errors which get punished by teams as good as City


And I have no bloody idea how Ague was allowed to score with his first touch about 25 seconds after coming on. Thought I was watching a replay or something.

From what I've seen of the 2 supposed main contenders for the title, the chavs and City, I'd say City look far superior. CSKA Fulham weren't convincing in their two gams against newly promoted sides, and while you could argue that City didn't overpower Newcastle and Liverpool, what they did do was take their chances with ruthless efficiency. For me, that is what will win the title.

Agreed

Lampard has confirmed retirement from international football. Saw this comment on the BBC site which really made me laugh. If he really said that, I like him a bit more.


"Good effort Frank! met him the other day shortly after he arrived at City and says he's settled in well, adding: "I recognise many of the fans from when they supported Chelsea"

And most likely Yanited before that, and Liverpool in the 70's and 80's.

Funny thing you mentioning old shirts, do you ever see anyone wearing a Chav shirt that pre dates 2003? Nah, me neither.

Out of the blue I know, but I feel really sorry for Sevilla. They always seem to get a decent team and then have to sell their best players. If they want fair play in Spain they should divide the TV money like they do here. It's virtually a two team league each season, apart from the last one.

    • Nothing to do with the tories overspending whatsoever eh! Blame the last 10/11 years of blatant mismanagement, incompetence and willful deceit on the poor bastards that were left with the fall out of a complete car crash tory government.   One PM after another falling on their sword. Open corruption and piss taking throughout covid and a legacy of huge debt and destruction yet in your view it will be labour's 4 years in power that bankrupts us in 2029.  Another one that must think people are blind and stupid.  Rejoice rejoice. It's a pity he and his fellow clowns were completely annihilated at the ballot box. I mean they were doing so well after all 🙃🙃
    • Where did I say he did a good job? Yup and Corbyn was very close to Len McCluskey and funded by Unite wasn't he...they're all as bad as each other... Labour have to purge their party of the far-left - they're a disaster. Allan Johnson summed it up so well on election night in 2019....  
    • Thank you for the detailed advise @trinidad It is definitely damage we are concerned about. I don’t think Evri would agree to pay the bill to fix our gate or letter box if they were to be damaged as a result of their delivery drivers helper. Our doorbell can be heard from outside when rung so we don’t quite believe the aggressive simultaneous door/letter box banging is necessary. It can be quite a shock it is done very aggressively.  I’ll definitely action the steps you’ve kindly provided along with a phone call tomorrow. I do sympathise with the role drivers have and how busy they are, which is why we tried communicating directly with her but sadly we haven’t succeeded 
    • What outcome would you like? Disciplinary action? Not to have the driver back? Retraining? I know there is alot of pressure on drivers to deliver within a set day. if he slams the gate, is it evidence he is causing damage, or is the noise a irritant to yourself? You could put a sign up or buy a signing asking to close the gate gentle???? can you hear the door bell from the door? he might be ringing, not hearing and therefore knocking. In trhe notes section of the be livery page, there is a note section, although there is not 100 per cent these notes would be read as these drivers are constantly rushing.  I did a google search for you, i found this and you can try the envri website Contact Us | Evri   To complain to Evri, you can follow these steps: Contact Customer Service: Call Evri's customer service at 0330 808 5456 for assistance with your complaint.    1 Write a Letter: Address your complaint to Capitol House, 1 Capitol Close, Morley, Leeds, West Yorkshire, LS27 0WH.    1 Use the Official Website: Visit the Evri complaints page on their official website for detailed instructions on how to submit a complaint.    2 Email or Call for Specific Issues: For issues like missing or damaged parcels, you can email or call 0800 988 8888, which is free to call.    1 These methods will help you effectively communicate your concerns to Evri.   My driver is called anthony, he is brilliant to be honest. I cant fault him.
