We looked very good last night. A deserved win. It was a shame about Fletcher and it would be great to have him back but I think it would be asking a lot to have the card withdrawn. It was alos a shame that it was that young lad Gibbs who slipped over for the first goal as he looks like a good prospect and he shouldn't let it rattle him. JSP still had a lot of work to do to score though. I keep banging on to friends (I do have some!) about how underrated Park and O'Shea are and they pop up and repay my loyalty. :))


As for below the belt Keef...videos of Gerard kissing the camera and various other posts by your lot when you beat us? I'm not one to join in, of course, but I've heard there's 50,000 red and white flags for sale in north London, only used for 11 minutes. Let me know if you're interested. ;-)

It was only a few weeks ago United fans booed United off the pitch at half time against Spurs..


As for plastic fans, what about United having their employees on the touchline waving giants flags before their European games..


Hope there is no trouble when United return to Rome - but I suspect some will be looking to settle some old scores.

What are you on about Matthew? I assume you mean flag waving staff, as in the same sort of thing as the Champions League circle things that get wafted by kids on the pitch before games and the giant flags that get passed around over the crowd? I think they probably do similar things to that at most grounds don't they? It's like having cheerleaders at an NFL game.


I certainly don't remember any booing at the Spurs game either.


What's the matter? Are you a little biddy bit jealous of our second consecutive European Cup final? Bit worried we are getting close to your 5 European cups and 18 leagues? SAF certainly is getting close to knocking Liverpool off their F****** perch...:))

Now now children, play nicely in the playground. Fair play to ManUre they were the better side and I personally was disgusted by the number of fans who left early and made my feelings known to them as they left the ground. I meet a mate who let me have use of his season ticket for the boro game and went to meet him in a pub outside the ground to return it. As they left the ground and went past the pub I was in I let rip with both barrells. It is the ifrst time in my life that I've been ashamed to be associated with such w**nkers. But my faith and love for the club will never die. As for Red Devils jibe, well let's see if you get past Chavski or Barca. Come on Barca!!!

Ha ha! Laughed my tits watching the Scum throw it away within the first quarter of an hour. They were outplayed and outclassed by a very good United side. You've gotta feel for the boy Gibbs for his slip that let Park in to score but I suspect he would have done so anyway and Fletcher who'll miss the final because of a referee's mistake.

If Barca score first in tonight's game anything could happen and I suspect Barca could sneak it and I'd rather Barca went through than the nouveau riche Chavski as it would make a better final than a repeat of last year's. But it could go either way.

    • 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" ?
    • ED is included in the 17 August closure set (or just possibly 15 August, depending on which part of the page you trust more) listed at https://metro.co.uk/2025/07/25/full-list-25-poundland-stores-confirmed-close-august-23753048/. Here incidentally are some snippets from their annual reports, at https://find-and-update.company-information.service.gov.uk/company/02495645/filing-history. 2022: " during the period we opened 41 stores and closed 43 loss-making/under-performing stores.  At the period-end we were trading from 821 stores in the UK, IoM and ROI. ... "We renogotiated 82 leases in the year, saving on average 45% versus the prior lease agreement..." 2023: "We also continued to improve our market footprint through sourcing better store locations, opening 53 and closing 51 stores during the year." 2024:  "The ex-Wilco stores acquired in the prior year have formed a core part of this strategy to expand our store network.  We favour quality over quantity and during the period we opened 84 stores and closed 71 loss-making/under-performing ones."
    • Ha! After I posted this, I thought of lots more examples. Screwfix and the hardware store? Mrs Robinson and Jumping Bean? Chemists, plant shops, hairdressers...  the list goes on... it's good to have healthy competition  Ooooh! Two cheese shops
    • You've got a point.  Thinking Leyland and Screwfix too but this felt different.
