It's the traditional curtain-raiser Charity Shield this weekend, so that means it's also pre-season prediction time.

On present squads I can't see any change in the top 4, but it will be much tighter than last season, so I'll plump for...wait for it...Arsenal!...followed by Chelsea, Utd, then City. Liverpool, who despite having bought well, will be hampered by the Europa League and will stay in 5th, and unless Spurs do some great business before the transfer window closes, will be a distant 6th.

At the other end of the table, in the season before the big TV money kicks-in, I expect there'll be lots of jittery, trigger happy chairmen, and a couple of big names to go down...Newcastle and Villa, along with Watford.

I think West Ham will struggle, but their fans will be happy...allegedly

I don't even think you'd get particularly good odds on that, he's definitely the manager under most pressure going in to this season.


Still expect us to finish comfortably above Spurs though.


WISH Rogers would TRY Benteke and Balotelli up front as a partnership, because Balotelli works well with a partner and I still think we could get something out of him, but Rogers won't because he "knows best"...

This made me laugh. Collins getting sent off for WH last night in the same week he was quoted/interviewed in the Standard that we 'must be more professional' referring to the two previous sendings off in the Europa Marathon Cup/League type thing. Someone will say I'm anti WH which just isn't true. It's just funny.

      Councillor McAsh defects to the Greens

      By Angelina · Posted

      Politician's moving from one party to another, especially when local is worth discussing. You have to wonder what they are driven by, and particularly in this instance, as their new party is moving in strange directions.

      Councillor McAsh defects to the Greens

      By Blah Blah · Posted

      To be fair to Sue, she doesn't have to explain or justify why she supports or wants to vote for any party. That is the same for everyone. We are free to decide which party best reflects what we think is important to us. Discussing the stances/ policies of parties, in a general discussion, can be done without targetting anyone commenting here. Politics is just a point of view at the end of the day.  Different things are important to different people, often for very valid reasons. Let's be respectful of that.  My opinion is that if say the Labour Party wants to understand why it is losing supporters to the Greens, it needs to listen to and understand the reasons why. That theme has been explored in this thread a little through the discussion around councillor McAsh. The same is true of the Tories losing support to Reform and the Libdems. Let's not also assume that every member of every party is completely on board with every policy of the leadership of that party either. You only have to look at how backbenchers have forced u-turns from Starmer's cabinet on things like Welfare Reform and WFA to see that.

      Bitten by dog on Heber Road

      As a compromise I'd be prepared to trial the reintroduction of dog licensing. The annual licence fee would be the same as road tax for Range Rover (same carbon emissions as a dog) and would require owners to pass a responsible dog ownership exam, the dogs would need to pass training and a behaviour exam and their DNA would need to be kept on record to identify the owners who leave dog shit all over the pavements, so that they can be jailed.

      Yeah  Ban people, that will solve all the planets environmental issues over night  Leave the dogs as they aren't the problem, its normally bad ownership and management that leads to badly behaved dogs. Spartacus  Ps Cat Rule
