Otta, you perpetually appear to misunderstand me by telling me I'm trying to wind people up. However I'm sick of being told I'm throwing my toys out of the pram by someone/anyone who doesn't understand the non-point I might have been making. Half the point of my posts is that there isn't one. So sod it.

Having a difference of opinion doesn't mean throwing toys out of the pram.


Nor does it mean having an attitude, causing trouble, looking for an argument.


It just means thinking as an individual and being brave enough to show that you are different to the majority.

Keane has made a lot of comments in support of the many ex players who have been criticised by Ferguson.

Avoid? It was hardly under Scholes' control - I'd like a bit of Posh, i'll get one of those for meself. Oh and those Armani pants contracts, I'll get one of those too.... Sorry no takers.

I didn't think Keane was having a go at Scholes for having a career in the media


as I read it he was having a go at him for NOT doing the same media duties as a player that the other players did and that he hid behind a "aw gee shucks" persona - one he has now shed


As for two egomaniacs fighting over book sales - I strongly doubt they are fighting a zero sum game - most people reading one will read the other


And both will be infinitely more interesting than (to pick someone at random) Scholes book

      Rude Evri delivery in SE22

      I didn't say wedge it "slightly" open. I meant to wedge it fully open.

      Looking to buy or adopt a dog

      By LondonFermentation · Posted

      I have a rescue Spanish greyhound (galgo) from the charity mentioned above. You can contact Greyhounds in Need or one of the more local Kent greyhound rescue charities. They are fantastic family dogs. They do love walkies 2 or 3 times a day but they actually don't need to be walked too far and then they will happily loaf around on the sofa being very chill. They are brilliant with kids but not recommended if you own a cat as they have a strong prey drive. They also should be kept on the lead in local parks. They prefer to be around other sight-hounds (well my one does) and there are loads of local sighthound owners in Peckham, Crystal Palace etc and a very lively WhatsApp group that is brilliant if you need dog sitting as you can usually find someone to do that for free in return for you looking after the dog at a later date etc.

      @Jenijenjen I assure you we are always polite and friendly too! Which is why the behaviour we have been receiving is so frustrating. The kids always leave her with a “Thank you have a lovely day”  Our concern is leaving the gate slightly wedged doesn’t stop the action of slamming it open and closed…still leading to damage

      If you're talking about who I think you are, I find them more exuberant than rude and usually smiling and polite. But then, I'm usually smiling and polite to them. Can you not wedge open your gate when you're expecting them?
