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.

      Anyone experiencing even greater issues securing a GP appointment with Tessa Jowell GP practice?

      By beansprout · Posted

      Really? Yes you are probably right as I know from personal experience with Guys… as I claiming travel costs back, that no one told me I could claim! Left hand does not know what right hand is doing regarding admin..  If they charged people for wasting overstretched staff in A& E as in not urgent just might deter people from wasting precious time…. But then you need interpreters, to explain if language is a barrier and admin staff to administer..  Correct me if I am wrong but is there not a train from Denmark Hill or East Dulwich which goes to London Bridge? Would be faster than 2 buses I would have thought.    Oh, forgot about Tessa Jowell but thought you needed GP referral in which case, that would be the place to go rather than a bigger hospital. Know there is one in Beckenham and you can call and they will give you an idea as to wait time…..same I hope at TJ…assuming they answer phone.. If one really things about it…too many  people in London for example and to few hospitals…

      Northcross Rd market extra opening days ?

      By bonaome · Posted

      I don’t think it’s licensed for Sundays. It is licences for Fridays, but there hasn’t been anyone there on a Friday for years. So I doubt it. i think there’s a market at the Horniman on Sundays. Also pretty sure there’s one outside Herve Hill station on a Sunday.

      I believe there is a minor injuries department at Guys, though I may have misremembered. Not very convenient for SE22 now the 40 no longer goes near. You have to get 2 buses or a train. Charging people (not sure if you mean financially or legally) would waste a lot more time, I would have thought? And  a bad bruise could be serious, depending on the cause and possibly other symptoms.
