Again, if I'd have said that I'd have been berated. It's certainly a United shirt.

Why would you have been berated? If you mean my comment was motivated by it being a Man United fan you are jumping to an incorrect conclusion. When I wrote that post identification of it being a United fan had yet to be established. In actual fact I was responding to red devil alluding to it being a 180 which of course is impossible with a single dart.

It could be a Huns scarf, blue and white, with a thin red stripe...


I don't think the perpertrator could actually miss Ratty! Having said that, it looks like one of those darts you get at the fun fair which is specially weighted to miss the board...Jah, didn't Pat Jennings get hit with a dart?


I remember a Utd fan got hit with a dart in his head at Anfield in the Annie Road end, nowadays we have to make do with bags of shit thrown at us...nice

Ditto Villa Park FA Cup semi, Utd v Gooners. Consider it a rite of passage Ratty, animals scenting out their territory.


Does anyone remember 'Fighting Stars', part of the 70's Kung Fu craze?..

Ok, it's a given that mancs and scousers hate each other, but this survey of Ldn fans throws up some strange rivalries, no prizes for guessing which teams fans have grown a recent dislike to Shef Utd, eh Quids?..

Your right it wasn't undercover filming, I remember the interviews on the trains, but by 'expose' I meant it was probably the first time a lot of the public got to see and hear young men basically saying they go to a football match just for a good old fashioned punch-up...

What were the politics of the ICF?, again from memory there would be several black faces in their ranks (Cass Pennent?), but West Ham also had a strong NF reputation around that time. At Utd the bias was very anti-fascist, especially as there was strong support from a large Irish community...

I am an easy going chap MM, and small - I just started going to West Ham home and away in the late 70s and especially away you got to know a lot of people, that'a all. At that game at man U I was atill in the ground watching West Ham get stuffed rather than outside doing all that shite. That was then etc.

      Promo counter/ trade-show stand wanted for community art project.

      By Lillo · Posted

      A bit of a long shot but I'm on the lookout for a portable pop-up counter or podium.   The kind you often see on a high street, used by charities or utility companies to advertise their wares.   I've included a photo to give you the idea. I'm a peckham-based artist and am looking for one for a free (and non-profit) community art project.  It can be in any workable condition and can already have signage on it as we will remove and redecorate ourselves.    Thanks in advance, Linzie

      Cllr Williams to stand down

      By Rockets · Posted

      No I absolutely did not - that much is clear. Have you read the latest stories about Unite, Len and the hotel in Birmingham? The UK electorate were smart enough to reject a far-left party in 2019, let's hope they are smart enough to reject a far-right party at the next election too. If not we are all doomed.

      Electrician (Highly recommended) - James Seth

      By AlanMBarr · Posted

      I would also like to add my recommendation for James.  I had taken four names of electricians from the forum - in the order I had read the reviews.  First three no response - even days later. I phoned James this morning. He answered, gave me a time, stuck to it, messaged again 15 mins before arrival.  He fixed my problem on the spot.  Sensible charge out fee. Perfect service.

      Cllr Williams to stand down

      By David Peckham · Posted

      Most recent polls for the next election suggest it will be a hung parliament, with Reform the largest party by a fair margin. But that is predicated on Reform finding around 300 candidates who are actually electable. Given the number of Reform council candidates who have had to drop out prior to or after the local elections, does that seem likely? Social media is pretty unforgiving when it comes to finding skeletons in cupboards; a retweet or a like seems enough to scupper political ambitions. A few may defect from other parties, but do you think the electorate would really vote for so many brand new MPs from a newish party?  I'm not so sure.
