While calling England's exit a 'humiliation', Lineker criticised Gerrard's 'individual' attitude and his lack or organisational skills.


He said: 'Steven Gerrard, wonderful player that he is, has always been an individual in many ways


'He's not really a player that can organise or spot problems. He didn't spot the danger on England's left side in the first game, which was pretty obvious after a few attempts.

I've predicted Belgium to be in the final simply because I chose them from the start & put a bet on them to win.


It was based on the fact that they have a lot of top class players. I admit they haven't been that great. I expected Lukaku to score a few times, but he's been terrible.

Sticking by them though because they appear to be late starters in their matches so far, saving all the good stuff for the last ten minutes. If they get their act together early on, it may just come together for them.


As for France, they've impressed me in both their games more than any other team so far.

I think Einstein said it best - "Making Lampard Captain in Gerrard's place is the definition of insanity..."


But it's okay - after listening to his (Hodgson's) bleating about the hurt he felt and how raw Gerrard was and hoping senior players would 'help the young along' in the future I'm sure Lampard and Stevie will entertain us at international level for some time yet if he has his way.


hurrah - roll on the Euros.

He definitely did. He needs to be banned from the rest of this World Cup plus another 20 matches and I'm sorry Otta but that should include Liverpool. On top of that he should get a hefty fine and a muzzle.


This obviously didn't work last time out so muzzle the nutter.

      Vet recommendation

      By NewWave · Posted

      I don't know how it works now but my late parents had little money when they were retired (just state pension and they rented their flat) and they used to take their cat to the Blue Cross (In Victoria if I remember correctly) where treatment was free for those who could'nt afford a private vet. I sincerely hope similar is available still because for many elderly their pet is their main source of comfort and company.

      Be careful in local shops

      By bonaome · Posted

      In a couple of places locally, I have come across this. I am fairly sure that they attempt to do the bill in their head. If you just say , “no, I think it’s x” they start again and get to an agreeable number, or find a calculator. I don’t think it’s a malicious attempt to swindle people. Just not great arithmetic.

      Bitey Fox.

      There are excellent charities like the Greenwich Wildlife Network who will help if you report any concerns with local wildlife. Foxes are wonderful creatures who had been forced into our town and cities and are just doing their best to survive, we should take care of them when we can.
