Of course it was Damian. It's Longford. Great place and the team I used to watch. Star player in those days was John Givens. No, not Don of QPR fame, his brother.

United looked great for about 20 minutes today. After that just frustration. Need a centre forward pronto unless Fellani is considered the answer.


By the way Glenn Hoddle, if you are given a job on TV as a pundit, don't you think you should at least know that Fellani was not a sub and therefore could not come on and cause the threat to the Newcastle defence you thought he might.

And try not to let bias cloud your judgement a la Michael Owen

Declan you must be paranoid, I AGREE with you, I was simply saying Hoddle and Owen show bias in their reporting. Happy now?

You still at this doc? Did you sleep with BFS's missus or something?


Okay i'll bite - a glorious f*ck up - terrible first half - Jenkinson and Creswell had a mare but didn't get much in the way of protection from midfield, play was too narrow and yes the system is taking time to gel but so what? I think it will - things will adapt and it's better to have these problems now than in a few months time. We need a striker and to learn to go wide when it's needed and for players to get over the nerves of playing at UP and stop the headless chicken routine when they f%ck up.


It'll come.


I am equal parts excited, disappointed, annoyed, frustrated, BUT I am not bored. I not looking ahead to a season of safety-first, percentage-based, dullness.


I think I once said I'd rather lose 4-3 in an exciting/dramatic game than win 1-0 in a bore fest. So now is the test. And i still feel that way.


COYI.

    • Just a quick post to say that my restaurant reviews column is now one year old. There are 45 reviews here* - mostly of local places (some sadly now defunct, others thriving). There are a couple of recipes from a period when I couldn't afford to eat out, a couple of moans about my health when I couldn't eat out on doctor's orders and a couple of reviews beyond our manor. But the main thing is that it is a free, useful guide to local dining and, I hope, an entertaining read. You can, of course, pay to subscribe or follow for free to get the reviews directly into your inbox as I don't want to spam EDF with every review (doctor says I'm not allowed spam anyway). The pictures below come from my two most popular reviews - Persepolis (new SE22 spin-off opening soon) and Norbert's, a great addition to East Dulwich. Please have a read and please consider subscribing. Did I mention you can subscribe for free?   https://eatsdulwich.substack.com/  *It would have been 46 but one review didn't run because the meal was so disappointing. I try not to be negative. To paraphrase Boyzone (or is it Westlife?) I said it best by saying nothing at all. 
    • I'd like to recommend Andy - came out very last minute to help us with a rental property that was having plumbing issues. We couldn't source the problem but Andy was able to find it / fix it easily & took the stress out of the problem. We have booked him again to put in a new bath for us now too as we were so happy with this work.    Lovely fella - thoroughly recommend using! Andy's number is 07983 688 451
    • If you're looking for a reasonably priced gym, there are a couple of PureGyms not too far away in Camberwell and Peckham. They're less than £20 a month with no joining fee. If you're looking to get fitter and / or lose weight, and you don't have any mobility issues, then download the coach to 5k app and start running. It's by far the easiest, quickest and cheapest way to improve your cardiovascular fitness and it's great for clearing your head!
