Er, being sacked is hardly unusual, even for top managers. Your likely next manager just got sacked from Chelsea.

BFS is a distant memory and he has his work cut out at Sunderland, particularly after the Johnson case. For me though, football is an entertainment and when I'm not entertained (for good or bad), I stop paying. That's what Allardyce did, he stopped me going for he first time in 30 years.


So, I understand your opinion RD and AM, try to understand mine.


It's not like MUFC or their supporters behaved any better with Moyes, is it?

Moyes took us from Champions to 7th in the blink of an eye. At least with BFS there was an end product despite the dogshit football. He got you promoted at the first attempt and then kept you in the PL. Yes it's nice to be entertained, but sometimes you have to walk before you can run. I have no problem with WH fans complaining about the dogshit football in his 3rd season, that was the time to sack him, kick on with a new manager, but the owners saw otherwise. What I can't understand is this refusal to accept BFS achieved some very important things for the club, especially as it was a crucial time with the move to the OS looming. You certainly can't say that about Moyes, he left us with Fellaini FFS :)...

Er, depends on how you define a top manager. JM I suspect was sacked for reasons which were not strictly football related. What other 'top' manager has been sacked from a club other than Real Madrid?

Roeder for me - took us down with a crop of amazing young players: Cole; Defoe; Lampard; Carrick etc (and a decent squad), Result we lost most of them to Chelsea; a couple of seasons before I though we were really going to challenge for some silverware with that lot in our ranks. Devastated us (financially too).

Ah yes, the Greg Dyke approach to football (or at least the excuse/argument put forward by suits when fans realise there is shit happening that is masquerading as 'progress') - You're all living in the past.


A bit like wanting affordable tickets eh doc? Or being against a European super league? Maybe wanting a return to a European Champions Cup to be ONLY for champions? Or wanting to watch attractive football?


Bloody luddites.

      Police appeal: Monday, 25 August – Assault between the junction of Lordship Lane and Chesterfield Grove at around 16:45hrs

      Rather than zero tolerance, a term I should have not used, I should have referred to crime,  No crime (excluding some things which really should not be criminalised) should be tolerated (albeit the reaction to a naughty 13 year old will be different to a violent criminal, and similarly those with mental health issues there will be some flexibility), I' was talking zero crime, which is impossible. New York was vastly improved, what happened to that wonderful Giuliani chap? US is not a role model of course, homicides per head dwarf the UK; the damage that white flight and the desolation of inner cities that happened to  many places such as Baltimore, Washington DC and Detroit is difficult to turn round

      Charlotte Cave on Blackwater St, East Dulwich SE22 8SD Award-Winning colourists. They have just opened up their ED branch. The entire team can be trusted, unlike other local salons (won't mention the others that have totally destroyed my hair over the years). Just go to a professional: https://charlottecave.com/ IG: https://www.instagram.com/charlotte_cave/

      The quarterly SNT Police Meetings are advertised on EDF - the one Beansprout mentions, is  Dulwich Hill. The team have been short  staffed for a number of months as one officer was injured trying to arrest a shoplifter - unfortunately the shoplifter got away but the officer was left with fractures. We regularly see one or two of the police team around the Dulwich Hill area (they were recently in Landells Road)  Dulwich Hill SNT are hoping to resume their Cuppa with a Copper sessions but are frequently asked to support colleagues policing the various protest marches.  The next Dulwich Hill SNT meeting is scheduled for December (date to be confirmed) The attack on the young woman would come under the Goose Green SNT.
