Which ever team you follow, he was a great player. Such shame about his previous drink problem.

Was just poor bad luck, we were miles the better team. A bit frustrating that without two injury time goals in our games against Utd and Spuds(actually 3 if you include your winner at UP) we'd be 4 (5) points better off and in the hunt still...

I wouldn't say you were miles better. I thought a draw was a fair result. Take heart though, you played very well and are a much better side without Carroll and Nolan in the starting Xl. Reid, Cresswell and Noble were all excellent today though Noble was a bit lucky not to have got sent off for a second bookable offence.


One thing is puzzling me though... Lamela is just not doing it for me. He needs to improve 100-per-cent. Out of all our substitutions today he more than anyone needed to go off. Though I must say Demb?l? was also rubbish today and was rightly substituted at half-time.

as everyone in the World knows, except on fella,,,who happens to be our manager ;(

It's not that long ago that Carroll was selected for England. And I know that doesn't mean BFS uses him in the way England intended to.


I think it's ok to play Carroll in Plan B football but I'd not want him in my starting team each week. Footballers are generally dumb (slight joke) and if they see a big target man they will use him even if it's not the manager or BFS instructions.


John Toshack was used primarily to knock the ball down to Keegan. Many plaudits and a trophy or two followed.


We are getting rather snobbish about how our football is played.


of course , a few clubs like West Ham and Celtic can say they always saw it thus. :) There are a few more to add to those two of course. Spurs pass and move probably.

He probably didn't want to go on tour with him either to be fair.

    • Would you like a copy of my spreadsheet? It's hours of fun.
    • Callout for help from any local experts here. Looking to find out more about the history of the property on the corner of Whateley Road and Ulverscroft road (with the green glazed bricks). Now a residential property, i'm told it was a bottle shop in days gone (the house was built around 1900) by and i'd like to learn more about the history of the business that was once here - name, photos, anything at all really! Seems to be very little from open source research so i'm hoping anyone with history in the area can provide any insight!  Starting here before i contact Southwark Archives or similar orgs to get any information and pictures (any advice here also would be welcome). Thank you
    • Portable ramps are available for businesses to use in this sort of situation, aren't they? I don't know whether one would be suitable for use here, or whether they have the space to store one. Lots of people have  permanent or temporary disabilities which mean they have to use crutches or a wheelchair.
    • I can’t remember where I read that figure but this article in the Grauniad from 2023 discusses Ocado results from 2022. The average shopping cart fell to £118 from £129 the previous year. But Ocado lost £500m that year on approximately 20 million orders (circa 400k orders per week). So, averaging out to £25 lost per order. Ocado pauses building new warehouses as annual losses balloon to £500m | Ocado | The Guardian  Obviously, the £500m loss includes various factors. But Ocado has existed for 25 years and only made a small profit in a couple of those years. The rest have been huge losses. Yet it continues to raise funds and speculation sends the share price up and down. In that respect,  it’s like the UK version of Tesla. Meanwhile, the main growth in the supermarket sector has been for Aldi and Lidl, who do not deliver.
