Not Commoli but the equally useless and overpaid Director of Football Franco Baldini went out and bought all those players that AVB didn't want and Poch didn't want. Levy likes a Director of Football. Harry Redknapp wouldn't work with one. We have gone seriously downhill since he left.


When a manager goes to Baldini and Levy and say he wants such and such a player they basically say "you can't have him but you can him instead," then the manager's hands are tied and he can't build a team of his own making.


As for Adebayor complaining about some of the fans response when they play at home, well he can fuck right off. Start playing well, score some goals and acting like you care and then we'll get behind the team more you mercenary fuckwit.

The chairman of football club Tottenham Hotspur is due to meet an American consortium, backed by private equity firm Carlyle, interested in purchasing the team. City AM writes that the club is expected to be valued between ?502m and ?628m, with money from any takeover used to fund a ?400m redevelopment of its grounds.

FIFA make me sick. If Quatar won the vote fair and square to host a Summer WC then it should not be allowed to be switched because of the climate. They should have though of that beforehand......yeah. This inquiry should have it's findings released in full and not just the Blatter version.

I'm the opposite. I've long since stopped caring about the moneyed, bloated premiership. But I don't blame you if you're English and have to deal with all the bs thats come since winning the WC way back sometime in the last century.

I'm sure the England fans will take great glee in reminding the home fans that they are still British, and I don't expect the Scots to join in when the England fans start goading the Scots with God Save the Queen and Rule Britannia...or do you think otherwise?

And I don't blame you if you're Scottish for not liking the English Premier League. Maybe if Mr Ashley has his way the SPL may benefit from a little bloating in the future. Until then there's always Gordon's Tartan Army eh?

No,not at all. I wasn't thinking of the English fans goading the Scots. I take your point.

Here's an example of what annoys me. I didn't see the match tonight, so went to check BBC Website and see the headline "Rooney scores as England fight back". But then I see he scored a penalty, and then Welbeck won it ith two goals.


It's not really Rooney's fault, but it's ALL about him.

      Cllr Williams to stand down

      By Rockets · Posted

      Corbyn was unelectable - he got trashed by Boris who was a buffoon. It was a good job too because I would have hated to see Corbyn and his rag-tag bunch of far-left university politics backbenchers try to lead the country through Covid.  It is completely understandable why Starmer and the Labour Party want to purge Momentum from within their ranks and Cllr McAsh has fallen victim of that.

      Recommendation for brilliant local Piano Teacher

      By nbb · Posted

      Hello.   Thanks Nigel and Hparker 😀   I've got new slots available for new students looking for a piano teacher or guitar teacher.   You could start in the new term beginning September, or I'm also available adhoc-styles through the summer holidays at times.   I teach all ages, in most styles, in lots of different ways according to how you learn/like to learn.   Give me a call or text on 07730 402336.   I have connections to lots of performance opportunities/networks too.   I run regular events /student concerts, and play in bands/perform.   Natalie.

      Poundland East Dulwich soon to be replaced by Tesco Express

      So do I, but I think they are in trouble as well.  Anyway, that space wouldn't be big enough.
