Since Bale's gone we are no longer a selling club.


That's because you had no one worth buying :)

Joking aside, you're building a new stadium, and Arsenal were forced to sell players whilst they paid for the Emirates. But with the TV money you indeed might not have to sell, we saw this with Everton over Stones, time will tell...

Saw the pre match stuff on the TV but then listened to part of the match on BBC radio. They commentator was going spare over of all the stuff being throw at the French goalie. Was there any mention of that on the TV?

Regardless of the potential for some idiots to disrespect it, the French national team just played here and a great deal of respect was shown. Do the masses really want to express their empathy with what happened in France by singing their anthem? I doubt it. It's in French. A minutes silence maybe.

Very much looking forward to MOTD tonight. Spurs quietly going about their business. Still unbeaten since the opening day. Chelsea next. Always a tricky one but our confidence is growing and I don't see why we can't beat them too. Hopefully end Maureen's reign at the helm.

Obviously, don't want to get carried away as being a lifelong Spurs fan I know it can always go tits up at any point and it usually does but beginning to feel quietly confident that we could be contenders this season.


Anyway, Spammers... how'd you like them apples?

I wouldn't go that far...yet. Certainly don't want to get carried away. If Harry gets injured that's a massive blow for us. But we're a young team who are growing together and everyone seems to be singing from the same hymn sheet and hopefully we'll stick together and who knows within the next few years if we continue to grow and make progress under Pochettino, who deserves a lot of credit for the way we're going about out business in bringing in our style of play and bringing the youngsters through I don't see why not.

Getting into the top four and finishing above Arsenal (as an added bonus) would be massive for us this season. I'd be very happy winning one of the cups that we're still in contention for.

With Chelsea having such a poor season so far I don't see why us or Liverpool can't nick their top four spot.

      Old bottle shop on Whateley Road?

      By tds_ · Posted

      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.

      Poundland East Dulwich soon to be replaced by Tesco Express

      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.
