Got back last night from a weekend in Mcr and 'that game'. General consensus from Utd fans was that the scousers have probably done us a favour in the long run, we were starting to look complacement, especially against Inter.

It's funny being away and coming back to see all the comments, especially the anti-Utd ones. Ratty's right, it goes with the territory, and long may it continue. What amazes me though is so called fans who trash Utd first before praising their own team. I'm not going to waste my time responding to the Munich poster, other than to say big respect to the posters who trashed him..(tu) It is indeed a beautiful Spring day, top of the league by 4 points with a game in hand, and Fulham lined up next...

Form says beat Real Madrid then... put United back in their box. Villa have buckled under the pressure, as I predicted last month, on Sunday they also need a result so could be a very entertaining match at Anfield.


As for 'wake up call' to United ... I think more like wake up call to the opposition who they will play. Liverpool didn't reach the same levels as against Real Madrid but they were still strong enough to neutralise United's midfield and thus cut off the supply line upfront.


I wonder if Wenger feels like a dumb arse for saying United were untouchable!?

Great w/e of sporting action, Liverpool were a joy to watch Arsenal back on form. England smashing France was tops as I work with 2 french guys. Now West Ham have paid off Sheff Utd ?15-?25 mio if we win tonight thats 42 points and safe.Happy me Irons.

I think I might have touched a few raw nerves there...

It is strange how there appear to be two different versions as to how much WHU are paying Sheffield United. Most papers say ?15 million, paid over five years. However both the Times & Observer say ?10 million now, and ?15 million over five years. The settlement details are supposed to be confidential, so it looks like two separate leaks. Goodness knows which, if any, is accurate.


Edited to add that Yorkshire Post changed the figure to ?25 million from ?15 million too at 11.30am...hmmm

I watched a bit of the game last night and felt bad that quids gave up an evening to go and see it



then I read about Warnock and couldn't believe it. Then I thought, no I CAN believe it


So then I watched Stewart Lee's new show on BB2 and all was ok again.

Disgusted with myself for losing, albeit "small" on that West Ham/WBA game last night as I was certain it would be very low-scoring.

West Ham's makeshift front 3 can't possibly cut it and I was so angry with going with WBA as they were handed the match ona plate and were so lacking in confidence and frankly, useless that they could not take advantage of a side who could have played all night and not scored.


What a contrast to the wondrous West Ham/WBA game I went to with Hursty/Peters/Mooreo and Astle/Bomber Brown for The Albion...6/1 and it could have been 11/3....modern football, eh?

According to various reports, Fergie refused to speak with Sky before and after the game on Saturday as he believes they are responsible for the scheduling of the game which meant Pool had one more day to prepare for the game. Is this a little like the time he blamed the colour of the away kit for the mancxs being on the wrong end of a hiding against Southampton some years back.I think he also forgot to mention the fact that there was a Y in the day, which went against them. JEEZ!!!!! And I thought Le Prof griping about Sunderlands performance against us smacked of sour grapes!!!!

    • But is it the Village councillors who are maintaining the board, or someone else? When the boards in East Dulwich were installed, it wasn't the councillors who kept the information up to date, it was Monica from Health Matters, who was greatly involved in various  community matters (eg the building of the community garden at what was then Dulwich Hospital). I can't remember if it was her who initiated the installation of the boards in the first place. She no longer lives in East Dulwich, and nobody else appears to be willing to liaise with the councillors and community related organisations  to take this on for the various East Dulwich boards.  It would hardly take much effort. Basic information doesn't frequently change (and no, I'm not volunteering. I am overstretched as it is). It's all very well to  get a physical  community notice board spruced up, but not much use if it then isn't being used for its intended purpose. And I can't see that it is part of a councillor's job to update notice boards which they didn't initiate in the first place. I'm sure they have more than enough to do.  The notice boards serve (or did do) a useful service, but all the information which could be put on them is surely available elsewhere. (Unless it is bringing to people's attention things which are of use/interest to them and they weren't aware they needed/would like, or didn't know how else to find the information). ETA: Oh. I've just read the beginning of this thread. I'd forgotten how it started. It's gone well off topic, hasn't it. Probably just as well, reading the OP.
    • The board in the Village (just near the pub) is in pristine condition, full of council-related information (though someone had stuck a flyer on the glass, now removed). Maybe the councillors there actually CBA to make use of a facility that took time, effort and taxpayers’ money to instal?
