Shame, I've just heard the news that Ledley has left the England training camp to return to Spurs due to his knee problem. Did 'Arry complain that if he played for England he wouldn't recover in time for Spurs next match?..

Well if he can't train for Spurs because of his persistant knee problem he can hardly train for England can he. He spends his whole time when the other players are training receiving treatment. It's a terrible shame for the boy and I really feel for him. But I remember Paul McGrath (Man Utd, Aston Villa) had a similar problem and was able to turn out for the Republic Of Ireland. So why not Ledley.

Villa goalkeeper Brad Friedel has had his Old Trafford suspension lifted by the FA - so is now free to face Man Utd in 2 weeks time.


Not sure why Capello selected Ledley King, as surely he must have known about his chronic injury problems, which beggars the question why is Michael Owen continually snubbed..


With Steven Gerrard ripping up trees for Liverpool as the 2nd striker will Capello now pick Gerrard in same position for England at the expense of Wayne Rooney?

Not sure if this gonna work, but this is on Hamlets web site, my son plays for the Youth side, he is the lad standing in the middle of the back row and someone is holding a small red madal box in front of him.

There is talk of a swap - McGeady to Spurs and "Pile of chenko" to Celtic. In which case Spurs 8 Celtic 0 is more likely but Celtic directors would have made a ?2m profit and that is all they care about, balance sheets not football achievements. If we sell McGeady I'll not be best pleased.

I was wrong!

Last time United had back to back PL defeats was actually 4 years ago (2004/05) - then lost a further 5 points in their final 5 PL games.


That season they also lost the FA Cup Final to Arsenal (Man Utd having earlier beaten Everton & Southamption), failed to win the Premiership and Liverpool were crowned European Champions - is there a pattern!?

ok, the executive box is now five places at ?90 a head for the Sunderland game, all money directly to a homeless chariddy Providence Row.

That's warm seats, Premiership action (though that may well be an ironic use of the word action), food and booze for ?25 more than a seat in the Bobby Moore stand.


If we don't get 5 we get 0. Come on you people, help a homeless person.

    • The step means Love Dulwich is not disabled friendly though they went to help someone on  crutches up the step last time we were there  much prefer it as a Turkish than café but maybe not for this group   The noise level might be an issue as it’s all hard surfaces though I don’t recall it being noisy. check out Olivelli the menu has a good range  though it’s not the best Italian you can get. There’s also a step up into Maria’s - much smaller but you need to negotiate the step and door at the same time. Olivelli has more room and if I remember right the toilets are on the ground floor. A consideration if steps are an issue The Lordship might be an option. Noise is not usually an issue. We’ve enjoyed various meals there. The ladies toilets are on the same floor as the tables (the gents may be upstairs). The staff are always friendly
    • It’s about chains, and the ethos of family run business versus unhealthy competition

    • But all those examples sell a wide variety of things,  and mostly they are well spread out along Lordship Lane. These two shops both sell one very specific thing, albeit in different flavours, and are just across the road from each other. I don't think you can compare the distribution of shops in Roman times to the distribution of shops in Lordship Lane in the twenty first century. Well, you can, but it doesn't feel very appropriate. Haa anybody asked the first shop how they feel? Are they happy about the "healthy competition" ?
