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.

      Handyman Review

      By mgk · Posted

      A belated recommendation for Iain and Paul od Oddbods who came to help me with various jobs before Christmas.  Painting ceiling, renewing silicone around bath, repairing a window sill which was almost beyond repair and hanging a large mirror.   Very happy with their work and they are friendly and very reliable and excellent at communicating.  No hesitation in recommending them.

      Plumber recommendation - Niko the Plumber

      By ssn · Posted

      I just wanted to post for all my neighbours a recommendation of Niko, the wonderful plumber who works locally. Niko has done work for me over the years, including large and small jobs. He recently replaced four radiators in my house which have helped us really be warm for the first time! I recommend Niko so whole heartedly because (1) he is completely straight forward and will advise you not to do something / a cheaper solution, if that is what is best for you; and (2) he is one of the kindest and most honest people I have ever known. He goes the extra mile to sort out problems, particularly urgent ones.

      The Mansion Tax

      By Jenijenjen · Posted

      Scaremongering - there is very little vacant land in East Dulwich available as sites for building 9 storey buildings so this is rather hypothetical. It could even be said the occasional taller, modern building breaks up the monotony of Victorian terraced housing.

      The Mansion Tax

      This is simply untrue. The area is not 2/3 storeys maximum. Hambledon Court is on the other side of tracks from the Jewson site on Burrow Rd, is 8 storeys, and is barely known (let alone bothersome) to most people in East Dulwich. Felbridge House, Petworth House etc on the opposite side of the station from the new development are all 5 storeys tall. East Dulwich Charter (which neighbours the new development) is itself 4-5 storeys (depending on which block you're talking about). What's more, Hambledon Court was finished in about 1978 iirc and no-one has built anything similar around here since then - so the "slippery slope" "genie in the bottle" argument doesn't work either. You can't simultaneously argue that Southwark is too slow in approving new construction but also suggest this will lead to a flood of new high-rise housing! At current rates of approval, we can expect our next 8 storey building to arrive in...2072!
