Never saw last night, crap result, but bit early to completely write a team off isn't it? I seem to remember Man U being written off more than once in the last couple of years after bad starts. That said, something needs to be sorted asap for the pool. As a friend said to me last night, they look flatter than the average pancake.

I know it's too early to write them off Keef and sorry for missing the winking smiley Sandperson but I can't see Liverpool in the equation and the end of the season. Their squad simply isn't strong enough and they haven't the money to go out and spend on the three or four players they need despite the ?30 million they received for Alonso.

There is a lot of behind the scenes squabbling between the two American owners and Benitez seems to have his hands tied financially and because of that it really wouldn't surprise me if he resigns or is sacked.

Agree with everything you just said. Unfortunately though, stamping feet and shouting yanks out, won't make any difference. They have thick skins, and I fear we're stuck with them. Being honest, I wouldn't shed too many tears if Rafa went, I like him, but find him a bit too stubborn. My concern would be that some players might go with him to Spain.

all very quiet on the celtic arsenal game for which i apologise but obviously not too confident. But arsenal fans are not up for banter so would be wasting my time as all i get it return is big fish small pond. Will however say that we have not given up. We shall fight, to the death, (if the referee allows tackles this week of course).

No it's a "I've got no brain so I don't get it" thing. A Big1 as in a big tool. Now do you get it?? FFS.

Alawys up for banter but Celtic are no threat, just a laughing stock, so it would be a wate of my time. Oh yeah, big fish small pond. Nearly forgot.

Oh no. Another brain teaser.


Anyway, back to the football. Scoreline for tonights game? I'm going 2-1 Celtic. Arsenal to scrape through then probably reach the semis.

Fcuk me ragged you really do live in a dream world, 3 - 0 to the Arsenal to get rid of the waste of space in the Champs league that is Celtic. As for the game against the Mancs at the weekend I don't think we'll be beaten.

      Great news! Peckham Rye station to reclaim its public square by next year!

      By rollflick · Posted

      Labour's latest Rye Lane Ward newsletter is now saying that demolition in the square will start this summer and that the wider station upgrade is expected to be signed off this year - as explained above, sadly wrong on both counts. It describes the renovation of adjacent buildings on Blenheim Grove as "successful", despite having lain empty for a couple of years, longer than the actual renovation works, before saying "the Council is hopeful [it] will see its first new occupants move in to this year". Cue desperate attempt to get at least one in before end of financial year? As for the other topic, in "November 2023, faced with a huge increase in graffiti across the borough, Labour-run Southwark council took action". Nice turn of phrase eh? Rather, after community pressure regarding years of inaction by said Labour-run council, it's finally started to do a little bit, a little late. Surely there would be more chance of resolving issues if our council could for once be part of an honest, informed discussion?

      Great Local Pest Control – Roger from Critter Solutions SE22 Area

      By Jonathan H · Posted

      Just wanted to recommend Roger from Critter Solutions Pest Control if anyone’s dealing with mice or other unwanted guests. We had a sudden issue with mice in our home's kitchen and after calling around, these guys were by far the most responsive and professional. Roger arrived on time, was really friendly, and took the time to explain what he was doing and why. He did a full inspection and sealed up some access points we hadn’t even noticed. Since his treatment we haven’t seen or heard anything since. What I appreciated most was that it didn’t feel like a rushed job or a hard sell – just honest advice and thorough work. All backed with a guarantee.  Would definitely use them again (hopefully won’t need to!) and thought I’d share in case anyone local is looking.
