I entered 2-1 West Ham, then thought "nah, don't be silly" and went 2-2. Damn it!!!!



Really enjoyed watching them today, but AM I hink you're just trying to wind people up. BFS has been there a while, it is only now that they are playing nice football, and I honestly believe that is despite him rather than because of him.


Although to give him his due, they looked really good at the back today, and I think he's probably put the steel in to the team.

It's when he says things like


?There are two types of coaches. There?s coaches like me who weigh up the opposition and ask the team to adjust. Fergie was similar. Jose [Mourinho] is similar. Then there?s Ars?ne, who won?t adjust. There?s Brendan [Rodgers], who looks like he won?t adjust. There?s Manuel Pellegrini, who looks like he won?t adjust, even in the Champions League. He seems to favour what he?s got. City are quite open."




That he just comes across as an arrogant knob. Even if there is truth in what he's saying, the man's ego is just enormous!

I'm just having a bit of fun Otta. I'm upset that maxxi chose to be abusive towards me but PD has done the same. I spent 6 months working at Upton Park and loved every day being able walk by the pitch, walk down the corridors by the managers office and the dressing rooms and finding out how much KB had difficulty in keeping a PA who would want to work with her. I hope they don't regret leaving there as it has history. I always see football grounds as being sort of churches dotted here and there around the country. That was like working in one.


However I sincerely don't thing SA is as bad as some fans think and I think his point which you referred to about some managers not being adaptable is perfectly valid. When money allows it they may well choose another manager to take them to another level but that's in the future.


Anyone remember Nigel Adkins? He was doing a great job at Southampton most people thought. He got sacked and the now Spurs manager took over. The point is that Southampton must have thought they were ready to improve on what he had achieved. When WH get to that point they will say adios to BFS.

He might be an arrogant cnut but I think he's spot on with that. As soon as I saw the line-up with two up front away from home I thought they'd have problems in midfield and that proved to be the case. Second half was a lot different when they brought Dzeko off. Terrific header by Sakho for the winner.

Maybe, maybe not. Do you actually know how much of it is his achievement?

You can't.


Look at Liverpool, was last season about Rogers' tactocs and style, or just about Suarez?


Is this season (so far) all about Rogers getting ot wrong, or about players not doing a job?



I can't prove BFS doesn't deserve all the credit he'll no doubt take. And no one else can prove he does.

Don't worry, he's fine, everyone is lauding him now so he may even be tempted to leave for a bigger club. I think he's just the man to take Celtic to the next level.

A good tribute, some great players speaking there. Spurs were early pioneers in Europe, and interesting how BN said we are nothing if were not in Europe. Perryman said he was still an influence on the successes of the 80s.


You need another Bill Nicholson soon.

Song will revert to type by Christmas, meaning he'll be as energetic as a lethargic cart horse. Jenko is class and is getting some good experience.

I wonder if we Arsenal fans have become blind to Song's virtues?


I was glad to see the back of him, didn't think he would work out at Barcelona and was glad we didn't resign him


But he DID have some great games for us and it is possible he is maturing as a person and able to tone down his more petulant side. West Ham's gain...

    • Anyone can deliver for Evri - my daughter having just passed her driving test tried Evri to make some money - they basically give you a route and as many parcels as they think you can cope with - you make money for each one you deliver, so you can imagine - speed is the priority. Why would they wait for you to answer the door when they can just throw it and take a photo? If you have a choice, choose a different courier service or shop elsewhere where they do.  
    • Boil - it’s the customer’s fault, not the delivery person’s. 
    • A bit of a long shot but I'm on the lookout for a portable pop-up counter or podium.   The kind you often see on a high street, used by charities or utility companies to advertise their wares.   I've included a photo to give you the idea. I'm a peckham-based artist and am looking for one for a free (and non-profit) community art project.  It can be in any workable condition and can already have signage on it as we will remove and redecorate ourselves.    Thanks in advance, Linzie
    • No I absolutely did not - that much is clear. Have you read the latest stories about Unite, Len and the hotel in Birmingham? The UK electorate were smart enough to reject a far-left party in 2019, let's hope they are smart enough to reject a far-right party at the next election too. If not we are all doomed.
