Well I got Peter Crouch first goal scorer correct ... for anyone looking to boost their grand national kitty ;-)


I fully expect Newcastle to dismantle Chelsea on Saturday with Shearer back at Newcastle, and they say things come in 3's so am sticking with a Villa 'dream' win at Old Trafford :-)

I can understand Shearer saying he is only in charge for 8 games to calm down the faithful, but what kind of motivation is that to the players. Surely it is better to think the Manager is going to be around long term.


I read one Geordie say, "8 games, 8 wins, 24 points, we can still make Europe"

Yaye! Proper football is back.


A men to that!!


Proper football as opposed to what, a kick around in the park? Sorry but FFS! Friendlies are a pain in the backside, but international qualifiers and finals are he peak, and should remain so!


I'm in a minority these days, which I think is a shame, but I'd take England lifting the world cup over any cup for any club. And a world cup will always be more interesting than a champions league! Where else can you see a world and european champion getting beat by a reletively tiny African nation, like Senegal beating France in 2002? That is what it should all be about!

Luckily for me Keef I remember very clearly England winning the World Cup in '66. My younger brother was born the day before and although I was only eight at the time I can still remember very clearly how gutted I was that my boyhood hero Jimmy Greaves wasn't playing and looking out for him sitting in his suit behind the England bench.

And I remember the euphoria at winning mixed with the sadness of Greavsie's obvious disappointment but fecking hell what a day and even now when I see pictures of the late great Bobby Moore being carried on the shoulders of his England teammates with the trophy raised in his hands it brings a little tear to my eyes. How I'd long to see England win it again. England's glory. You never forget things like that.

    • Meson Don Felipe on The Cut was my go to place for many years. Though it's now many years since I was there. 10-15 minute walk from the Tate. If you go can you tell me what it's like nowadays?
    • Doubt you would have got much change out of £150.00 for battery and certainly having forked out for it, best to use your car. I recently sold  my car via webuyanycar.com - very pleasant experience & was roughly what I was expecting. Pop your bangers reg jnto their website to get an idea of price - they do send e mails once a fortnight/month just as an aid for you. Easy enough to delete - don’t even have to read valuation. They literally buy any car - if you can’t get it to them, they will charge you to get it there or recommend a co that will do it for you. Must say, mine was a 2014 reg and whilst a bit suspicious, paid extra to get money into my account as needed it for next car but was assured funds had I not gone down route I took would be in my account within 5 days. I now live in the country - every time I have been back to Dulwich and surrounding area, normally get a fine for driving at wrong time or parking at  wrong time so if I drive now, park in West or East Dulwich and do everything else by public transport and walking.  Were I still to be living in ED then before I left was pondering this very issue but since I have been back regularly for health reason I no longer drive but take the train and then buses, walk or Uber. Much cheaper than running a car and had I stayed, that would have been the course I would have taken. I don’t go out everyday, have an allotment or job to go to or family so in my case, would be cheaper not to have a car.  Was truely shocked   at the cost of second hand cars…..but where I now live only has a smattering of buses so no choice but to have wheels to get from A to B etc.          
    • If you don't use the car often then suggest disconnect the battery between use by undoing the earth (negative / minus sign) cable from the battery and the battery will then last longer between use. Remember, central locking, alarm, clock, etc won't work with battery disconnected and wit ours I have to lock the doors with central locking before disconnecting battery as only have key on one door (leave bonnet open before locking doors). Hope this helps
