Yanited fans seem ok when the media puts forth glowing reports about their signings and anything else associated to the club, yet when they have the nerve to suggest that recent signings are there for money (shock) and not the glory of playing for the club, they become very indignant.

Of course they are there for the money but it's not always about money. Witness in a different sport Sexton deciding to return to play club rugby in Ireland when he could earn more in France like (world cup hero) Wilko did.


As for the media, I agree with RD that it's mostly crap that is written in it. I've asked you a straight question, what should I read to be as knowledgeable as you?

Probably because he played a full game for England and you have a Champions League game on Tues. Squad rotation innit...

This from BBC's website (don't know how to post the table)


Real Madrid 1-2 Atletico Madrid (FT)

Posted at 21:02


Notice anyone missing from the La Liga table? No, it's not an error. Real are 12th in the table with two defeats from three matches. They are Manchester Unitedesque in their current slump.

Javier Hernandez will be feeling right at home.

    • 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."
    • Ha! After I posted this, I thought of lots more examples. Screwfix and the hardware store? Mrs Robinson and Jumping Bean? Chemists, plant shops, hairdressers...  the list goes on... it's good to have healthy competition  Ooooh! Two cheese shops
    • You've got a point.  Thinking Leyland and Screwfix too but this felt different.
