This was a long time before my time Mick, but I'd be very interested to hear from you how great a player Kenny was up at Celtic? I guess people will say George Best or Eric Cantona was a better player but apart from that being argumentative Kenny won 3 European Cups and countless League titles in England as well as a bucket load of trophies in Scotland (when Scotland were a superior force to England) which for me makes him the outstanding number 7 in world football.

Might be worth looking closer to home first Matt- was he better than the man he replaced being kevin Keegan? He won 2 euro player of the years in a no 7 shirt. He was someone Liverpool thought they would struggle to replace and the reason they broke the uk transfer record to secure Kenny.It would be an interesting debate for Liverpool fans as Keegan was the original king of the kop.

Bob Paisley who managed both Keegan and Dalglish said, "Of all the players I have played alongside, managed and coached in more than 40 years at Anfield, he [Dalglish] is the most talented."


Legendary striker, Dixie Dean who once scored 60 top flight league goals in a season for Everton, said of Dalglish, "a wonderful player, such skill, so brave. Probably the best combination of goalscorer and goalmaker I've ever seen".

Obviously UEFA disagree with bob paisley jah lush Anna Matt etc.not many players have won 2 European player of the year awards.its just another case of the best player in the English league being automatically assumed to be the best generally. In continental Europe Keegan will have a higher standing.

Very good Jah.

That's funny Jah. He's got off the mark with Real in the form of a slagging off from the oppostion in a friendly for diving "too much". There's a shock!!!!

Jerzy Dudek has been shooting his mouth off about our Rafa, "it is not easy to negotiate with Rafa Benitez"


Although I have to say Rafa has been too diplomatic over Alonso, I can't help get the feeling that if it were anyone else but his boyhood club then Rafa would cut loose with a few barbed volleys (e.g. without Alonso no one will be able to conduct Kaka, Ronaldo, Benezma) but obviously he doesn't want to totally burn bridges if he has managerial ambitions at the Bernabeu. Having said that Spanish motormouth Guillem Ballague reckons Rafa's ultimatum of 48 hours to sign Alonso will be resented by President Florentino Perez and the sticking point could be that no one involved in the deal will 'want to lose face or to walk away with their reputation tarnished'.

More seriously celtic losing at home after 5 mins and still losing after 30.missing our 2 key midfielders with injury sounds like they are bossing middle of pitch. Could be strachan like baptism for Tony m. I'm worried now an away goal behind already.have only lost once in 35 ch league games at home and that was barca.
Yup half time score 1-0 to the Russians - maybe they should have lowered ticket prices further to get a bumper crowd with what is at stake. I think Dinamo already have 15 league games under their belt and you know they're no mugs from that league.
Bad bad bad.assumerd it would be a sell out crowd but maybe not.anyway no midfield. The rubbish Italian played well in pre season and he is simply not good enough at euro level. We have been in a few scrapes befoRe though so hope Tony can say right thing at Ht.

    • What was he doing on the stage at Glastonbury? Or on the stage at the other concert in Finsbury Park? Grinning like a Cheshire cat whilst pissed and stoned 20 somethings on the promise of free internet sung-- Oh Jeremy Corbyn---  What were his policies for Northern mining towns with no jobs or infrastructure? Free Internet and university places for youngsters. What were his other manifesto pledges? Why all the ambiguity over Brexit?  I didn't like Thatcher, Blair or May or Tony but I respected them as politicians because they stood by what they believed in. I respect all politicians across the board that stick to their principles. Corbyn didn't and its why he got  annihilated at the polls. A socialist, anti imperialist and anti capitalist that said he voted for an imperialist and pro capitalist cabal. He refused to say how he'd vote over and over again until the last knockings. He did so to appease the Islington elite and middle class students he was courting. The same people that were screaming that Brexit was racist. At the same time the EU were holding black and Asian immigrants in refugee camps overseas but not a word on that! Corbyn created and courted a student union protest movement that screamed at and shouted down anyone not on the left . They claimed Starmer and the centre right of labour were tories. He didn't get elected  because he, his movement and policies were unelectable, twice. He turned out not to have the convictions of his politics and died on his own sword.    Reform won't win an election. All the idiots that voted for them to keep out Labour actually enabled Labour. They'll be back voting tory next time.    Farage wouldn't be able to make his millions if he was in power. He's a very devious shyster but I very much doubt he'd actually want the responsibility that governance requires.
    • The purge of hard left members that were part of Corbyn's, Mcdonnel's and Lansmans momentum that purged the party of right wing and centrist members. That's politics. It's what Blair did to win, its what Starmer had to do to win. This country doesn't vote in extreme left or right governments. That's partly why Corbyn lost  We're pretty much a centrist bunch.  It doesn't make it false either. It's an opinion based on the voting patterns, demography and statistics. Can you explain then why former mining constituencies that despise the tories voted for them or abstained rather than vote for Corbyns Labour?  What is the truth then? But he never got elected!!! Why? He should have been binned off there and then. Why he was allowed to hang about is an outrage. I hold him party responsible for the shit show that we've had to endure since. 
    • Depends on what the Barista says doesnt it? There was no physical confrontation with the driver, OP thinks she is being targetted when she isnt. These guys work min wage under strict schedules so give them a break unless they damage your stuff
