BFS needs to change

> Carrol) had us tear both Liverpool and City apart.



Yep. I think Carroll could work with Noble and Song dictating things but not Nolan. Good that Sakho is back - he's the key.

It is going to be very difficult for Tottenham. We have an away fixture at Fiorentina in the UEFA Cup three days before the final. It will be interesting to see who Pochetino picks for that game and the performance of the players and mindset before a cup final, especially considering winning a UEFA Cup can now get you into the Champions League. Obviously the League Cup final should take priority as winning a trophy is all that matters but Chelsea will have a few days extra rest. The Italian fixture is a game we can do without.

Some of us aren't keen on Spurs and take a great deal of Schadenfraude(sp?) in their 'big club' delusion which grows funnier the longer they don't win any trophies. I loathe Chelsea but sadly they are going to win things whatever so let them pick up another, after all minor one, and keep the Spuds potless is my view


PS Sorry Jah xx

I wouldn't want spurs to win a raffle, but Terry and recent arrival Costa (odious dirty c**t) plus a criminal for an owner wouldn't endear CSKA Fulham to anyone.

So BFS fans (Mick and the Dr)..Downing played on the wing again rather than in the centre of the diamond, the useless Nolan in the central position. Downing, possibly one of the players of the season to date, is ineffectual and not in the game like most of last season when he played out there, Nolan is useless and we are comprehensively beaten as I predicted. Since Nolan came back Sam has played him in that position and carroll upfront and our results are loses against all the big teams, some wins against the strugglers (Hull, Leicster), mainly from the second half when he's changed the formation, and some draws against average teams who our best formation and team should steamroll. When Nolan and Caroll were injured with Sakho and Valencia upfront and Downing in the middle we were fantastic. Useless dinosaur c*nt of a manager. Got a squad of players way beyond his ability and ambitions, i hope they don't renew his contract at the end of this season.

More worryingly - if press rumours are to be believed - he's trying to ship Noble out (for Fletcher) and keep Nolan. Un-be-f-ing-lievable. All part of his plan to get rid of any players that aren't his and keep his glee club so he can say (when asked why he's gone all long ball again) 'I have to play a system that works for the players I have'.


ETA - looks like Song is being trained to stay back and pump long balls forward for Valencia and Carroll too - he won't stay to play like that.

AM I think you are enjoying winding Quids and Maxxi up over West Ham, but the facts are there to see. They play one formation, they do well. They play his preferred formation, they get beat.


I was obviously pleased with yesterday, but I quite like West Ham, and it is a shame to see them being held back, which in my opinion (for what it's worth) they are by BFS's backwards thinking.

      Vet recommendation

      By NewWave · Posted

      I don't know how it works now but my late parents had little money when they were retired (just state pension and they rented their flat) and they used to take their cat to the Blue Cross (In Victoria if I remember correctly) where treatment was free for those who could'nt afford a private vet. I sincerely hope similar is available still because for many elderly their pet is their main source of comfort and company.

      Be careful in local shops

      By bonaome · Posted

      In a couple of places locally, I have come across this. I am fairly sure that they attempt to do the bill in their head. If you just say , “no, I think it’s x” they start again and get to an agreeable number, or find a calculator. I don’t think it’s a malicious attempt to swindle people. Just not great arithmetic.

      Bitey Fox.

      There are excellent charities like the Greenwich Wildlife Network who will help if you report any concerns with local wildlife. Foxes are wonderful creatures who had been forced into our town and cities and are just doing their best to survive, we should take care of them when we can.
