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 :-)

No, No, I would never be pleased at seeing a club go to the wall. There but for the grace of god and all that... anyway, I want to see Scumhampton get relegated on merit! :D

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.

    • Another recommendation for Dulwich Test and Services Centre. Only been using them for a couple of years but wish I’d found them earlier 
    • A new roadmap (surely railmap?!) for rail accessibility has been published: https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/accessible-railways-roadmap It says "approximately 56% of stations and around 66% of the 1.3 billion journeys that take place on the network have step-free access to platforms...  "£373 million has been committed over the next 5 years to deliver Access for All projects, providing step-free access from station entrances to and between platforms, alongside other essential accessibility upgrades. These works, together, will increase the number of step-free stations across Great Britain from 56% to 58%. "This improvement will make travel easier with step-free access available at stations covering an increased share of total rail journeys – from 66% up to 71%" Don't know what that means for us here: upgrading Peckham Rye would cover a lot of rail journeys but the cost has no doubt increased from the £40m figure previously quoted. So that would eat into a lot of the funding.
