Sorry about that Dave, watched the game (telly), competitive I guess is the flattering way to describe it. 13 wins in a row at Elland Rd is it? You'll be fine.


Happy times for my affiliations, Stoke are almost certainly safe and Stevenage win their second FA Trophy at Wembly in 3 season, hurrah, well done Borough!!!


Come on the Hammers, make it a mockney hattrick!!!

Jah you missed one! I'll predict for you!

Arsenal 4 Chelsea 0

Fcuking Stoke "Anti - football" City will be in the prem next season, I hope they go down next season, they deserve it. Anyone know the link between two clubs languishing at the bottom of the prem, namely Hull and Toon? Yes that's right, it's that cock Allardyce. Newcastle have never recovered since he was involved with them and his acolyte at Bolton, perma tan Phil, is doing rather miserably. That'll teach him to sit his players on the pitch like school kids and give it large, and to report Cesc to the FA like a big kid telling tales.

anything can happen in next 5 mins and usually does


Not happy about Man Utd winning again but they have been outstanding this year when you look at how many games they have played.

Iniesta a serious doubt for the Champions League Final - and Henry is still injured. This alongside their entire first choice back 4 being unavailable (Gabriel Milito, Rafael Marquez, Daniel Alves and Eric Abidal) does not bode well for Barcelona.

A mate of mine kindly donated his season ticket to me for the game. We started really brightly and in fairness they weren't in the game until the award of a debatable free kick. The defending for Anelkas goal was woeful, both central defenders just backed off and backed off. THe third goal was comical as was the fourth. The scoreline was not a fair reflection of the game, if we had buried our cahnces in thr first half the game would have been out of sight, but there you go. I think Le Boss need to take along hard look at what he has in his squad and what we need to bring in. For me, we need a keeper, two central defenders, a tough tackling central midfield player a la Vieira, and another striker a la Henry. Well I can dream can't I??

Arsenal certainly looked the better team. It was two extraordinary goasl which made their heads drop and even in the second half they looked on top again. AG, you still think there's a future for Wenger? I see he's talking about not spending much if anything this summer. Are you not a bit frustrated? There's a chance that Adebayor might leave and others as well.


(This is not meant as an antagonistic post. Friends and I who support all sorts of different clubs have been talking about it, including Gooners.)

Le Boss seems to take huge pride in his persistence with youth, which is fine but needs to be balanced with a touch of pragmatism. WE need to spend on quality established palyers, if we don't I think it would time maybe to bite the bullet and look for a suitable successor. Therein lies another problem, who is suitable or big enough for the job??
You're right. Not many managers up to a job like that. And we all call for giving a bloke a chance all the time. I think it would be a mistake personally to get rid. Maybe a number two with a bit more influence might do it. I know united wouldn't have been as successful if it hadn't been for Fergie's right hand men, Kidd, McClaren(!?), Queiroz etc. I must confess to not knowing much about the management setup at Arsenal but would that be an option? I guess Wenger is pretty strong willed and it might not suit him.

I think a lot of L'Arse's problems stem from David Dein leaving. He was and is still a close friend of Wenger and sorted out all the transfer wheeling and dealing. Not sure who sorts that out now.

Any of the top four teams are capable of beating each other with their strongest team, it's when injuries and suspensions kick in that the clubs with the best in depth squad do better, and has been L'Arse's downfall in recent seasons.

Next year Citeh will also be challenging along with Villa and Everton, meaning Champions League qualification will get even tougher.

    • The sites in question though are not comparable to the builders yard by the station and less likely to be granted planning permission for 9 storey buildings. The builders yard fronts on to the railway line on one side and virtually no residential property surrounding on the other sides. The Gibbs & Dandy /Kwikfit and ED trading trading estate are surrounded at close proximity by residential, and in the case of the latter a Grade II building, so there would more stringent height restrictions. Both these sites are tired and in need of development to provide much needed housing.
    • Not sure if this is any help but was initally told to use google chrome as the browser and the code was the reference. However the person at Southwark parking took pity on me and did it for me 
    • I can see how it could've worked 20 or 30 years ago, when you couldn't swing a pool cue in the Foresters without hitting a sparks, a plumber or a chippy, but the area has changed somewhat. I'm not sure people around here have such trade-able skills these days. Have a word with someone in your local and you'll see. People are always going to need their boiler fixed, a damp patch sorted or their dimmer switch dimmed, but I can pretty much guarantee I'm never going need my corporate policy complied with, my social media planned, my data mined, my green transport tsared, my information architected or my analytics analysed. It reminds me of the great DIY con of the mid to late seventies. My Mum bought into it, my Dad didn't. Anyway, my Mum won out and we let the gardener go (he went on to be TV's Timmy Mallett, so that's a warning from history), but my Dad shorted the house out and singed his head when he cut through the flex on his new Black & Decker hedge trimmer. We all laughed, of course, but he got his own back when, because we didn't use a qualified electrician to do things properly, she electrocuted herself when she pulled the back of the plug off her Carmen heated rollers while it was still in the socket. Keep things professional, say 'No!' to this sort of nonsense. We pay people a decent rate of pay because they're specialists at these things. I did once barter my sister's space hopper and roller skates for twenty-odd square foot of crazy paving, though. That was a birthday present my Mum never forgot, and not in a good way.  
    • Thanks both of you. I have also been having the same problem. I emailed the named person on the letter, with no response. I also tried phoning and was transferred to another number which cut me off. I hope they extend the deadline for applying as there are likely to be many people without a permit by the deadline for applying.
