This time last season Yanited had one more point than they have under Van Fail, with the same number of games played. Will he be given the luxury of time that wasn't afforded to Moyes? Of course he will, the decision makers can't be seen to have their judgement called in to question again so quickly. But I digress. Southampton have proved a host of doubters wrong and currently sit second in the table. After off loading so many players during the summer, that is indeed an achievement. Given the circumstances I'd say that ranks along side the Chavs performance thus far, and with a fraction of their resources. Well played,.............thus far anyway.

The decent games for us were few and far between, yes he did have a good game at the weekend, but that will be the exception rather than the rule. Good luck to West Ham, maybe they can get some value out of him. Talking of value, Balotelli anyone?

Not sure what to say about Bolotelli. He's had three times as many hair styles as goals so far this season.


Football amd goals aside, at least Suarez was a proper loon. Mario is just like a big toddler.



And yet he has a decent track record, so I just need to keep hoping the goals will come, and tgat Sturridge gets fit quickly and doesn't take long to find his form!

I think it could. Liverpool's best performance this season was their win at Spurs when Sturridge and Mario played together. I think Mario needs another striker to play off rather than the lone striker role he's been playing in Sturridge's absence. It's a role that just doesn't suit him, and I'm surprised that Lambert hasn't been given more game time...

Me too RD. He's openly said he's not comfprtable in the role, yet Rogers persists in playing him there and keeps saying "he's getting in the right positions, it'll come".


I'm not dissing Rogers, I have plenty of time for him, but if a striker is not confident up front alone, and you have another one warming the bench (who could be pretty good at lay offs) why not play them together more?


Not that that is Liverpool's only problem at the moment.


But yes, the Spurs match made me think we'd be pushing on from last season. That feels like a looooooooong time ago now.

I don't. It wasn't about Scholes being shy, it was about him being a footballer and wanting to avoid the limelight that he saw his mate Becks enjoying.


He's now a retired footballer with a new career.


God I can't stand the fact I'm sticking up for Scholes, but Keane is just being such an unbelieveable prick.


All his old team mates should go round his gaff mob handed and just kick the shit out of him.

Ha. Good to see you come out of retirement PGC. It's gonna be a big one and Super Ally thinks it could fill the Maracana! It's a great draw in that it's at the end of January so will keep the tabloids and old firm banter going for 3 months.


it had better not be on BT Sport.

Keane having a go at someone for having a career in the media, this from a man that has "written" 2 literary matersworks. The image of Jason McAteer scribbling an imginary not under Keanes nose comes to mind.

So Mick/Declan BFS....Saka's out so tactical genius BFS reverts to type and sticks Downing out wide and plays Valencia up front alone. We proceed to get right royally trumped until 2-0 down he's forced to bring on another striker and move Downing into the diamond. Then our quality gets us back to 2-2.....


I'm not a football genius but when I saw the formation pre- kick off I did think has the fat idiot really learnt anything from our success so far this season. Them spots are proving hard to change.

Weren't BFS's hands tied a bit with Sakho being out injured? I don't think many teams play two up front away from home anyway. Cole seems to have been used more as an impact sub this season, and Carroll isn't yet ready. I reckon part of his injury problems stem from being rushed back too soon in the past.

BFS probably decided to play it tight with the option to throw Cole on for last 20mins. The West Ham of recent years wouldn't have come back like that, good job BFS is so adaptable :) ...

    • I have had disappointing deliveries from matoom too, it seems better when I've eaten in. Also they do their own deliveries if you order from their website.
    • Hope you all had a happy Christmas & good New Year  Here are your Gardening Tips  for February . Their not too long, but they need doing if you are to have a good garden this year  1. Pruning.  Before the birds need a nest prune your hedges especially the deciduous ones . Important to still prune Roses . Cut back Rose bushes hard to a bud & creating a rounded plant . Prune your trees before the sap rises especially Buddleja Hydrangeas hardy Fuschias Lavatera Bay Leylandii You can cut back Spring flowering tree’s after they have flowered later in Spring  Prune climbing plants like Virginia creeper & Ivy very hard . Remember they will grow back prolifically  You can prune Wisteria twice a year & February is one of them . Cut back the whips (smaller branches) to 3 buds before the main stems . You can prune a few of the thicker stems to give the plant shape & form. Give it a feed if you want it to flower  Cut back any grasses so they can grow in Spring  Prune Jasmines & winter flowering Jasmines. They will reward you with beautiful smelling flowers during Spring & Summer    2 If it ever gets dry again mow your lawn at top height of your mower. Repair patches & trim all borders with a half moon spade . It’s a good time of year to lay new lawns levelling the ground adding sand feed & topsoil    Power wash your patios paths & wooden structures & furniture. You can then give them an appropriate treatment when they have dried out  That’s it for now. I told you it wasn’t too long, Do these if you can, but if you want someone to carry it out for you, I recommend any of the we’ll recommended gardeners on the forum including myself & my colleagues  Please give me a call on :  07759862191. Well done if you managed to read this. Nigel
    • Hello, I’ve got a 1980’s  one if you’re interested it works fine a bit old school 
    • Another recommendation for Greg.  He provided excellent service - fast response, quote and then fitting the job in.  The inbuilt wardrobes he made are of a very high quality and he was a pleasure to work with.  Helped us with some additional shelving and a broken floorboard too.  Highly recommend!
