What do you mean Keef? I was a bit distracted with nerves to notice any shenanigans. Do you mean his usual posturing? I was suprised he let Giggsy take a free kick but that was the only unusual thing I noticed. :))

He spat his dummy out, again. Cant exactly remember what led to it? it was because he didn't get his own way.

I know he is a fantastic player with a great strike rate but the bloke infuriates me, his attitude stinks, and I know it comes from a passion to win but it's the way he reacts to certain situations that I find very annoying.


I remember now it was because he didn't get a corner.

I doubt he's a bar?a fan RD, however spaniards v the english it's probably no contest. When commentator said there were people in Madrid supporting man u I wasn't too convinced. There's a strange lingering antipathy towards England (they are aware that there are other countries in Reino Unido but they always refer to all of us as los ingleses). They may like us individually (away from the costas) and love England itself but I think they always love to get one over on us even if it be catalans especially in a weirdly more united post euro championship Spain.


I could be wrong though.

I genuinely didn't see that. If he did, which I am sure he did, it's par for the course with him. I am suprised that he can get away with a lot of his attitude to the staff, but I guess that shows how much Fergie values him on the field. I don't like his posturing and attitude any more than the next man but I think he's a valuble player on the field and I want to keep him. I know you want to get a rise out of us Mancs but I still maintain that if you had him in your team you'd feel the same way. He grimaces and groans and moans but he can change a game and a I don't believe anyone would drop him from their team for it when he is a match winner.

    • If the local archive doesn't suffice there's also the London Archives. I remember using what was then called the London Metropolian archive some years ago, and viewing Street Directories among other things  there. https://www.thelondonarchives.org/your-research/research-guides
    • You've sent me down a rabbit hole here! According to the 1909/10 street directory, 10 Whateley Road was the address for John Gibson, beer retailer.   He was born about 1860 in Walworth and his father, also called John, was a beer retailer as well. By the time of the 1891 census, John Gibson Junior had moved to 10 Whateley Road and described himself as a beer house manager. He was married to Margaret and had a son and a daughter. John and Margaret were still living at the address 30 years later when he described himself as a beer retailer. His mother's name was Charlotte Sarah and there is an entry from the same street directory as above for someone by that name described as a beer and wine retailer at 42 North Cross Road. This was most likely his mother, now described as a widow.   Hoping this is of interest.
    • A long overdue review for Niko who we have used a number of times over the years, sometimes to properly finish a job that other plumbers have not done properly. He thinks of everything! I only ever use another plumber if it's urgent and Niko is away. A really kind and thoughtful man and totally trustworthy
