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.

      Lost Cat Henslowe & Underhill Road

      By jfern · Posted

      Missing Cat! 11 months old/ Our friend, Coco, has gone missing. Last seen evening of 31st October near top of Henslowe rd where it meets Underhill Rd in SE22. We know she has started wandering up Friern Rd and further we guess but we imagine she has been spooked by Halloween / Fireworks goings on. She is a grey Siberian mix with some brown stripes down her, very friendly and likes to eat. Please let us know

      That said, organised displays could be on Saturday before and after and the actual day, and private ones could just not have the loud ones.  It’s all down to accessibility and people caring/not caring

      The problem this year is that 5th November falls on a Wednesday. So some places will be bringing their "bonfire night" forward to Saturday 1st and some will be knocking it back to Saturday 8th and there'll probably be a few that just go with Wednesday 5th anyway. If you're doing a public display, having it on a weekend gets more crowds. Which basically means a solid week of fireworks.

      Fireworks

      Fireworks in this area do feel totally incessant at this time of year, almost every evening there is terrible noise. I feel great concern for wildlife, pets (I have a senior cat who hates them), as well as people who struggle with PTSD etc. Last year I even had people setting them off in front of my home. Tonight and yesterday evening have been particularly bad. Is there anything we can do as a community to prevent this? What action can we take? Surely we shouldn’t be expected to just put up with it every year for weeks on end!
