I only saw the 2nd half, and tbh I was more disgusted in the quality of the Guinness than the play acting of Ronaldo.

Parker's histrionics were pathetic. He was trying to get the other player sent off rolling around as if he'd been shot.


Tottenham were superb last night. I really thought that Boro could have been another banana skin as they had suddenly struck form with a couple of good results including beating Liverpool 2-0. Great to see Robbie Keane back in form and scoring and creating goals again.

I'd be very surprised if Aaron Lennon isn't picked in the next England squad, whenever he gets the ball people are up on their feet in anticipation that something good is going to happen and this season usually does.


Quids you're right. Newcastle are looking in seriously deep shit.

If I recollect correctly, Liverpool wanted to re-sign Owen for the same amount they'd sold him to Real Madrid. All that was blown out of the water when Newcastle came in with their crazy ?17m offer. With transfer deadline loomimg, Liverpool advised Owen to reject the Newcastle offer as Real Madrid would crumble and agree to the Liverpool deal once Owen made it clear it was only Liverpool he would join. Whether Real Madrid would have budged in another matter but what is clear is that Owen would have been better sitting it out in Spain rather than exposing his sensitive hamstrings to the crippling North Sea wind.

Ranger's result reminded me of the Sun headline when Caley beat Celtic...


'Super Caley go balistic,

Celtic are atrocious'...

After Liverpool drew at Stoke in early January, and Liverpool 4 points clear Rafa rallied his players for the run in to the title with this comment to the media: -


?It could be that it takes fewer points to win the title because you can lose games you expect to win. This could be the situation at the end of the season.?

That headline meant the end of john barnes and his replacement was martin o neill so that loss was a real positive for celtic. But yes it was a great headline..

Back to a day when the fan's had wit. My, slightly bias, example....on a banner (sheet on two broom poles) at the 1980 Cup Final "Devonshire Cream, Rice Pudding"



For anyone under 40, Alan Devonshire=West Ham genius, Pat Rice=Arsenal donkey...


*takes off jumper ready for goalpost

At the 1992 Semi Final at Villa Park (Replay)


Have Souness' Men got the Heart to Bypass Pompey?


Sadly they did but it made me laugh, as did a big pink inflatable pig thrown over the fence into the scousers in the shared Holte end on which someone had magic markered "Jan Molby"

I remeber on fantasy football league some years ago there was a sing in honour of the early german exit. Went something like - we wanted to play like Muller, Beckenbaur, Rumenigge... but instead we played like Kuntz!


Was to the tune of Nessum Dorma if anyone's interested.

    • He seemed to me to be fully immersed in the Jeremy Corbyn ethos of the Labour Party. I dint think that (and self describing as a Marxist) would have helped much when Labour was changed under Starmer. There was a purge of people as far left as him that he was lucky to survive once in my opinion.   Stuff like this heavy endorsement of Momentum and Corbyn. It doesn't wash with a party that is in actual government.   https://labourlist.org/2020/04/forward-momentum-weve-launched-to-change-it-from-the-bottom-up/
    • I perceive the problem.simply as spending too much without first shoring up the economy.  If the government had reduced borrowing,  and as much as most hate the idea, reduced government deiartment spending (so called austerity) and not bowed to union pressures for pay rises, then encouraged businesses to grow, extra cash would have entered the coffers and at a later stage when the economy was in a stronger position rises in NI or taxes would have a lesser impact, but instead Reeves turned that on its head by increasing ni which has killed growth, increased prices and shimmied the economy.  What's worse is that the perceived 20 billion black hole has increased to 30 billion in a year. Is there a risk that after 5 years it could be as high as 70 billion ???     
    • That petition is bananas.   If you want a youth centre there pay the landlord the same rent a Londis would and build it yourself or shut the f**k up to be honest. Wasting our MPs time with this trivial nonsense is appalling. If your kids are still out at 1am on a school night you've got bigger problems than vapes and booze and hot sausage rolls. 
    • There used to be a better baker than Gail's on the same site immediately before Gail's pulled their financial muscle.
