Isn't there a fatal flaw in this cunning plan...the winner of the FA Cup qualifies for the Europa League?

Regrettably more and more of these c**nts are going to home games and can be overgeard talking about finance for their latest business projects, and cost of child care, and all sorts of other non football related guff. Unfortunately this seems to be something we will have to get used to more and more, and not just at the Arsenal. Ticket prices are already out of reach for a large percentage of those that would love to go, used to go but can't. And it's not just football. Rugby, boxing (I'm talking major title fights here) and tennis comes to mind. Would love to go but unfortunately Twickenham and Wimbledon prices are beyond my reach.

I agree with all of the above. I've not been to White Hart Lane this season as I can no longer afford it. I get my footballing fix at Dulwich Hamlet these days and to be honest I think I enjoy it more there where the fans wouldn't dream of booing their own players and who get behind the team week in week out even when they are three-nil down as was the case last Saturday.

I used to go quite regularly when my son played for Dulwich Hamlet Youth, but haven't been for a while, might start going gain, more in my price bracket and always good fun

OK I've calmed down now.


Both of my boys' teams got 2-2 draws yesterday, although the park match was far more entertaining. Must make an effort to get to DHFC more often.


Anyway back to my earlier comments but changing sport. I actually like going to Wimbledon (tennis), but remember not so many years ago sitting behind a couple of gents checking their e-mails on their Blackberries (this was in a world before i phones, well before they were universal) whilst the tennis match was on and being quite surprised. Fast forward this to Friday, when I was at Old Colfeans near Blackheath whilst the rugger was on. I was playing badminton but could hear the roars from the lounge as England came back to beat Wales. I checked the score occasionally and it was a rowdy if good natured audience, but again imagine my surprise to see a handful glued to their i-phones whilst the match was on. Doing what?? And not kids.

Jeez, shocking indeed if true.


Anyway, whatever Harmison's being paid, victory for Ashington FC tonight in his first game in charge. #HarmysArmy

I'll believe that when I see it. But at least more and more people are calling for it, and the clubs really can't justify not doing it. However they'll say something along the lines of "to continue to provide the best league in the world it is important that we invest this money in the best talent otherwise they'll go elsewhere". Bit like bankers and bonuses innit.

But more importantly, what a bloody match last night! Obviously I was happy with the end result, but hand on heart I was well in to it like I've not been in to a match for quite a while. Great entertainment.


Loved how Balotelli was chasing everything and wasting time at the end. Spurs p[layers looked like they wanted to slap him (understandably).

Yeah, great match. Pity about the result. I think Spurs deserved a draw but that's the way the cookie crumbles sometimes. Nevertheless great entertainment.

I just knew when Balotelli came on he was going to score and so it proved. I'm glad he's finally off the mark because there is no doubting his quality. He's suffered in a similar way to Soldado in that the way the team is set up to play doesn't suit his natural game.

Yep, quality player, but doesn't fit Rogers' style, and Rogers doesn't seem to be the type to bend at all. You can't expect a player to totally change to fit in, otherwise you'll lose their best atributes. Surely they can meet half way? Last night he gets a chance in the box, and he scores. Says it all.


And yeah, either side would have been worthy winners. Liked the way Spurs went for it, they didn't look like an away team.

Re Football prices, I think they will come down as a result of the deal but right now West Ham are one of only 3 clubs in the Premiership to offer adult tickets for ?20 (C list fixtures admiitedly)I can't knock them too much. aAd when we move to OS I think they'll offer great deals to fill it so I am looking forward to a family season ticket type deal.

    • Where did I say he did a good job? Yup and Corbyn was very close to Len McCluskey and funded by Unite wasn't he...they're all as bad as each other... Labour have to purge their party of the far-left - they're a disaster. Allan Johnson summed it up so well on election night in 2019....  
    • Thank you for the detailed advise @trinidad It is definitely damage we are concerned about. I don’t think Evri would agree to pay the bill to fix our gate or letter box if they were to be damaged as a result of their delivery drivers helper. Our doorbell can be heard from outside when rung so we don’t quite believe the aggressive simultaneous door/letter box banging is necessary. It can be quite a shock it is done very aggressively.  I’ll definitely action the steps you’ve kindly provided along with a phone call tomorrow. I do sympathise with the role drivers have and how busy they are, which is why we tried communicating directly with her but sadly we haven’t succeeded 
    • What outcome would you like? Disciplinary action? Not to have the driver back? Retraining? I know there is alot of pressure on drivers to deliver within a set day. if he slams the gate, is it evidence he is causing damage, or is the noise a irritant to yourself? You could put a sign up or buy a signing asking to close the gate gentle???? can you hear the door bell from the door? he might be ringing, not hearing and therefore knocking. In trhe notes section of the be livery page, there is a note section, although there is not 100 per cent these notes would be read as these drivers are constantly rushing.  I did a google search for you, i found this and you can try the envri website Contact Us | Evri   To complain to Evri, you can follow these steps: Contact Customer Service: Call Evri's customer service at 0330 808 5456 for assistance with your complaint.    1 Write a Letter: Address your complaint to Capitol House, 1 Capitol Close, Morley, Leeds, West Yorkshire, LS27 0WH.    1 Use the Official Website: Visit the Evri complaints page on their official website for detailed instructions on how to submit a complaint.    2 Email or Call for Specific Issues: For issues like missing or damaged parcels, you can email or call 0800 988 8888, which is free to call.    1 These methods will help you effectively communicate your concerns to Evri.   My driver is called anthony, he is brilliant to be honest. I cant fault him.
    • When I have more time and energy, I will look up the actual number of votes cast for each party in that election, rather than the number of seats won. I'm interested to see that you apparently  think that  Boris Johnson did a good job of "leading the country through Covid." Is your memory really that short? I won't stoop to calling Johnson and his cronies names in the way that you seem to think is appropriate for left wing politicians. At least the left wing politicians have some semblance of morals and a concern for people who aren't in some over privileged inner circle and/or raking in money for themselves on the back of an epidemic. I'm not going to open a can of worms on here  by commenting on the disgraceful so called "purge".
