Yep, he certainly does. Hope to see him have a cracking season.

When Liverpool bid 21m for Costa, I thought Suarez would go, but as that's not happening I think they'll keep him for now. Rogers has said he won't discuss him again until he's available for selection. Fair enough. Gerrard said he felt sure that he wouldn't be sold to a domestic rival.

I was there. Brilliant atmosphere and great to stick two good goals past England at the new Wembley! Gutted to lose the third after leading twice but can't argue with that great goal from Lambert. 25,000 fans came down, over 20,000 in the ground making a huge noise and only 2 arrests (for being drunk). That's an amazing feat so credit to both sets of fans.


Nothing about England scared us. Gerrard looked lazy and ponderous. Rooney played well and credit to him for ignoring the cream donuts sent his way.

Glad you enjoyed your evening MrBen. I was at the Euro '96 game against Scotland when Gazza scored that fantastic goal and the atmosphere was amazing. The Scottish support is always a sight and sound to behold. They never stopped singing and getting behind their team. One of the best experiences I've had at a football match. Certainly the best at an international.

I'm waiting until the transfer windows closes, but I will make one prediction now...this will be Wenger's last season.

Hmm... People say that about Wenger at the beginning of every season now. It's getting a bit like every time the Rolling Stones tour and the usual lazy journalists headline "Could This Be The Last Time?" bollocks.


Mind you there's hardly been a flurry of activity in the transfer market so far and with their nearest rivals down the road already spending ?60 million they might be looking a bit envious at our spending. Are Gooners are bit worried about this?

I'm on a roll Jah after my Fergie prediction last season. I'm actually thinking more along the lines of Arsenal not getting into the Champions League, cue revolting Gooners (pun intended)...

True. Usually we leave it to the last minute and get off to a bad start. We dropped points in our first three games last season and because Le Arse came so good towards the end of the season, that and those three games at the beginning probably cost us 4th spot. Hopefully, that won't happen this time around.

In theory yes (FFP permitting), but I think in City's case it's more to do with the change of manager and/or the board making those funds available. Last year City were hopeless in the transfer window, which showed in the League...

All dropped points are critical in hindsight. I'd say the home loss to Fulham was the biggie, which in effect undid beating Arsenal...

    • Where did I say he did a good job? Yup and Corbyn was very close to Len McCluskey and funded by Unite wasn't he...they're all as bad as each other... Labour have to purge their party of the far-left - they're a disaster. Allan Johnson summed it up so well on election night in 2019....  
    • Thank you for the detailed advise @trinidad It is definitely damage we are concerned about. I don’t think Evri would agree to pay the bill to fix our gate or letter box if they were to be damaged as a result of their delivery drivers helper. Our doorbell can be heard from outside when rung so we don’t quite believe the aggressive simultaneous door/letter box banging is necessary. It can be quite a shock it is done very aggressively.  I’ll definitely action the steps you’ve kindly provided along with a phone call tomorrow. I do sympathise with the role drivers have and how busy they are, which is why we tried communicating directly with her but sadly we haven’t succeeded 
    • What outcome would you like? Disciplinary action? Not to have the driver back? Retraining? I know there is alot of pressure on drivers to deliver within a set day. if he slams the gate, is it evidence he is causing damage, or is the noise a irritant to yourself? You could put a sign up or buy a signing asking to close the gate gentle???? can you hear the door bell from the door? he might be ringing, not hearing and therefore knocking. In trhe notes section of the be livery page, there is a note section, although there is not 100 per cent these notes would be read as these drivers are constantly rushing.  I did a google search for you, i found this and you can try the envri website Contact Us | Evri   To complain to Evri, you can follow these steps: Contact Customer Service: Call Evri's customer service at 0330 808 5456 for assistance with your complaint.    1 Write a Letter: Address your complaint to Capitol House, 1 Capitol Close, Morley, Leeds, West Yorkshire, LS27 0WH.    1 Use the Official Website: Visit the Evri complaints page on their official website for detailed instructions on how to submit a complaint.    2 Email or Call for Specific Issues: For issues like missing or damaged parcels, you can email or call 0800 988 8888, which is free to call.    1 These methods will help you effectively communicate your concerns to Evri.   My driver is called anthony, he is brilliant to be honest. I cant fault him.
    • When I have more time and energy, I will look up the actual number of votes cast for each party in that election, rather than the number of seats won. I'm interested to see that you apparently  think that  Boris Johnson did a good job of "leading the country through Covid." Is your memory really that short? I won't stoop to calling Johnson and his cronies names in the way that you seem to think is appropriate for left wing politicians. At least the left wing politicians have some semblance of morals and a concern for people who aren't in some over privileged inner circle and/or raking in money for themselves on the back of an epidemic. I'm not going to open a can of worms on here  by commenting on the disgraceful so called "purge".
