"Two men have been charged in connection with an incident which led to the bomb squad being sent to the home of football legend Kenny Dalglish".....


Nobody was injured and yet this story is still running.


Blown out of all proportion i.m.o.

Pun very much intended Atila:)

Xabi Alonso's proposed move to Real Madrid moved a step closer this morning when the Liverpool midfielder submitted a written transfer request. Liverpool have given Real Madrid 48 hours to complete the deal although the situation has been complicated by the difficulties the Spanish club have had in offloading players to help offset the cost of their frenzied summer buying spree.
That 48 hour ultimatum was given more than 48 hours ago. If Liverpool revert to 4-4-2 with Gerrard back in midfield and the lionshare is spent on a top quality forward then it might mean a better tilt at title. What I do not want to see happen is Rafa blowing the money like a Chav whose just won the lottery.. e.g. don't go signing your players from Wigan and Hull.
Huuntelar looks like a possibility, and, although I can't understand why, Viera. Like everything else I'll belive it when the contracts are signed and the player pulls on the shirt. Kolo was ok last season but didn't set the world on fire, but ?25 mill for Adebayor, what a touch!!!

Thanks atila. You never know we might turn it round.were missing our main midfield player which is the key position in tough matches.other than that we have no excuses except a new manager deserves time to get started and its tough playing a team who are already in mid season.

    • But all those examples sell a wide variety of things,  and mostly they are well spread out along Lordship Lane. These two shops both sell one very specific thing, albeit in different flavours, and are just across the road from each other. I don't think you can compare the distribution of shops in Roman times to the distribution of shops in Lordship Lane in the twenty first century. Well, you can, but it doesn't feel very appropriate. Haa anybody asked the first shop how they feel? Are they happy about the "healthy competition" ?
    • ED is included in the 17 August closure set (or just possibly 15 August, depending on which part of the page you trust more) listed at https://metro.co.uk/2025/07/25/full-list-25-poundland-stores-confirmed-close-august-23753048/. Here incidentally are some snippets from their annual reports, at https://find-and-update.company-information.service.gov.uk/company/02495645/filing-history. 2022: " during the period we opened 41 stores and closed 43 loss-making/under-performing stores.  At the period-end we were trading from 821 stores in the UK, IoM and ROI. ... "We renogotiated 82 leases in the year, saving on average 45% versus the prior lease agreement..." 2023: "We also continued to improve our market footprint through sourcing better store locations, opening 53 and closing 51 stores during the year." 2024:  "The ex-Wilco stores acquired in the prior year have formed a core part of this strategy to expand our store network.  We favour quality over quantity and during the period we opened 84 stores and closed 71 loss-making/under-performing ones."
    • Ha! After I posted this, I thought of lots more examples. Screwfix and the hardware store? Mrs Robinson and Jumping Bean? Chemists, plant shops, hairdressers...  the list goes on... it's good to have healthy competition  Ooooh! Two cheese shops
    • You've got a point.  Thinking Leyland and Screwfix too but this felt different.
