I'm really not too bothered about going out of the Carling - especially as the 2nd round draw would have meant a somewhat incongruous Sheffield derby. Blackwell of course was spitting feathers at the team's performance - I just hope the team reacts to this positively against Watford on Saturday! Paddy Kenny's FA hearing is now on Tuesday apparently. I see a player just got a 3 month suspension (backdated) for being in possession of recreational drugs, which I am hoping is viewed by the FA as being rather more serious than taking an over the counter cold remedy....


But yes, let it go for goodness sake!

Good to see Jermain Defoe in top scoring form last night. He's gonna get you Reds on Saturday.


Jermain Defoe's 1st goal against Holland last night.


I agree Glen Johnson was very poor last night, who made too many wrong decisions with his passing. The same goes for Rio Ferdinand who seemed to have slipped back into his old habit of switching off and Gareth Barry in particular I thought was very poor. I can see a way in for Michael Carrick here in the long term who is by far a much better player. Ashley Young also failed to impress.


On the plus side Carlton Cole, Defoe and a very good performance from James Milner were the icing on the cake of a good second half performance.

She does not seem to be coming back to you on that one SP. Keeping you keen I think.

You really cannot blame Wenger for the low esteem in which the Carling is held. It has never been popular with anyone in all its various incarnations, as the pitifully low attendances in almost every round bear out. It's never had the glamour or appeal of the FA Cup, which in theory at least any club - including non-league clubs - in the country might win. The really big clubs ensured they'd not have to take part until the last possible moment. In fact I would argue Wenger has, if anything, made the competition more interesting not less, and I write as one who saw his team thrashed 6-0 by "Arsenal Juniors" last season and 3-0 by Eduardo & Co the season before.

Thta's right Jah, we've set our sights a little higher like Prem Titles and 1st Division title and numerous FA cups, unlike Spurs who have rested on their laurels since, well........................1961.

    • Where did I say he did a good job? Yup and Corbyn was very close to Len McCluskey and funded by Unite wasn't he...they're all as bad as each other... Labour have to purge their party of the far-left - they're a disaster. Allan Johnson summed it up so well on election night in 2019....  
    • Thank you for the detailed advise @trinidad It is definitely damage we are concerned about. I don’t think Evri would agree to pay the bill to fix our gate or letter box if they were to be damaged as a result of their delivery drivers helper. Our doorbell can be heard from outside when rung so we don’t quite believe the aggressive simultaneous door/letter box banging is necessary. It can be quite a shock it is done very aggressively.  I’ll definitely action the steps you’ve kindly provided along with a phone call tomorrow. I do sympathise with the role drivers have and how busy they are, which is why we tried communicating directly with her but sadly we haven’t succeeded 
    • What outcome would you like? Disciplinary action? Not to have the driver back? Retraining? I know there is alot of pressure on drivers to deliver within a set day. if he slams the gate, is it evidence he is causing damage, or is the noise a irritant to yourself? You could put a sign up or buy a signing asking to close the gate gentle???? can you hear the door bell from the door? he might be ringing, not hearing and therefore knocking. In trhe notes section of the be livery page, there is a note section, although there is not 100 per cent these notes would be read as these drivers are constantly rushing.  I did a google search for you, i found this and you can try the envri website Contact Us | Evri   To complain to Evri, you can follow these steps: Contact Customer Service: Call Evri's customer service at 0330 808 5456 for assistance with your complaint.    1 Write a Letter: Address your complaint to Capitol House, 1 Capitol Close, Morley, Leeds, West Yorkshire, LS27 0WH.    1 Use the Official Website: Visit the Evri complaints page on their official website for detailed instructions on how to submit a complaint.    2 Email or Call for Specific Issues: For issues like missing or damaged parcels, you can email or call 0800 988 8888, which is free to call.    1 These methods will help you effectively communicate your concerns to Evri.   My driver is called anthony, he is brilliant to be honest. I cant fault him.
    • When I have more time and energy, I will look up the actual number of votes cast for each party in that election, rather than the number of seats won. I'm interested to see that you apparently  think that  Boris Johnson did a good job of "leading the country through Covid." Is your memory really that short? I won't stoop to calling Johnson and his cronies names in the way that you seem to think is appropriate for left wing politicians. At least the left wing politicians have some semblance of morals and a concern for people who aren't in some over privileged inner circle and/or raking in money for themselves on the back of an epidemic. I'm not going to open a can of worms on here  by commenting on the disgraceful so called "purge".
