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!!!!

    • I'd be tempted to put up some sort of fence  to delineate the area and see what happens. Probably nothing.
    • Poundland have been there just over two years. 
    • Has anybody here bought some land from the council to become part of their garden? There are helpful guidelines on the Southwark website here including a PDF with associated costs, however the "valuation" element has absolutely no guidelines. It could be £500 or £50,000. You will already have spent £1000 on the process before finding out what they will charge you for the land - which would certainly be frustrating if it's not affordable for you. The land in question is a tiny patch immediately attached to the front of my property, approx 4 meters wide x 1 meter long. Would like to put a fence there to separate from the pavement and allow some privacy, keep the bins more tidy. The land is of no value to anybody else and is neglected currently - the council seems to have to stopped maintaining this area between the pavement and the houses on our street.
    • I suppose wind could have blown rubbish out of bins down into the pond. But I also counted three footballs and some smaller balls. Regrettably, there is also what seems to be a large dead carp or waterfowl, hard to tell at distance. I just hope the water quality is okay. I am not clear to what extent the pond is managed.
