That's the one.

And no, not at all.

He's in it for one thing and that's not the benefit of the football club.

I don't know if this is good or bad really.....


Celtic and Arsenal hold top positions in a new football financial strength league of 44 European clubs devised by S&P Capital IQ. While Celtic top the league, Glasgow rivals Rangers are bottom and are held up as an example of how things can go wrong on and off the pitch.


Apart from Celtic, only Ajax get ahead of Arsenal in the table based on a range of debt and financial performance indicators, but the North London side are ahead of Bayern Munich and Manchester United (ranked fourth). Not surprisingly, S&P Capital IQ suggest that Arsenal's financial stability may be related to its unwillingness to 'buy' success by spending heavily on transfers

Of course it is, he's still coming out with some pearlers about the rags, must have a book to sell, don't you think and doubtless that will be crammed with lies.

RK left Utd because he criticised players, remember the MUTV rant? I don't think there's a Utd fan who doesn't think he's being hypocritical on this point. Quietly scathing, but nonetheless slagging someone off for being slagged off. Two wrongs and all that. Somehow I don't think RK will lose any sleep about comments from a journeyman footballer no one has heard off...

    • Thanks TWB, that is all really useful. However, if  memory serves, The Fox Project actually directed me to The Fox Angels when I phoned them, and had no facilities in this area for sending anybody out themselves. They seem to be based in Tunbridge Wells. The Greenwich Wildlife Network also just suggests other organisations who may help in certain situations. To the best of my knowledge, however, for situations involving foxes, including injured or ill  foxes, Fox Angels are the only people who have someone available very locally who can come out virtually immediately (I waited maybe half an hour after I phoned them). The person who came had all the necessary equipment to move the fox, was very gentle and caring, and took the fox to a local vet (it sadly died). It's possible that if you phoned a local vet they would help, if you could get the fox there. The RSPCA has guidelines on what to do if you find an  animal in need,  however although they have recently had a campaign on this (and sent me a badge and a copy of the guidelines on a pocket sized card) I can't find them online. I attach a photo. Don't know if the QR code would work from a photo.    
    • My mum (91 years young!) well remembers going to Austin's as a child, which she described as an 'Aladdin's Cave'!  She absolutely loved it - and is still a shopping fiend to this day (I 'blame' Austin's 😉). Going back up Peckham Rye, passing Austin's on your right hand-side, just past Phillips Walk (so not far from Austin's at all), I believe there was a British Relay Wireless shop - this would have been in the late 1930s/early 1940s.  Does anyone know anything about this? My grandad (my mum's dad) used to manage it; it was severely damaged in The Blitz - but I am having trouble locating it.  Mum's memory is dim (she was 6 at the time); she originally thought it was in Rye Lane, but we think now it was in Peckham Rye just up from Phillips Walk (originally Phillips Road). 
    • Thanks everyone, this will need to be reported again as the fox was still mobile and walking down the road when last seen... hopefully someone will spot and report.
