Two things: West Midlands Police hate football fans, particularly the home fans and the fan in question did give Enckleman a 'playful' slap on the cheek too.

Do me a huge favour and don't start with the name calling, there's a good boy. Now run along and play nicely in the sandpit with the rest of your mates.

Listen, I'm begining to take a real dislike to you. You've taken it upon yourself to start the morning off with name calling, I, on the other hand, had not passed any comment in your direct today, until you decided, in your (not so) infinte wisdom to pipe up. Now be a good lad and fcuk off.

LOL


I've criticised plenty of other Clubs, including my own, so I think I've been pretty fair with my comments. I chucked in a comment about 'washed up bums' playing for Liverpool last night which of course draws no attention - but yet something milder about the Mancs and it's obviously a vendetta :))


Just because the FA brush it under the carpet does not mean we should cut the Mancs the same slack :))


I'd actually recognised a Scouser had tried to kill a Bulgarian in my defence of Michael Shields. There is something wrong that justice has failed as I cannot imagine people in this country putting up with it if it had been vice versa.

Matt - I agree, I think your posts are usually fair (although sometimes a bit too serious/long).

Seen this from Diouf, about when he played at Everton on weekend:


"The ball went out and I wanted to take the throw in quickly. The ball-boy threw the ball at me like a bone to a dog ... What's more people threw bananas at me"

Not a big fan of the footy hooli flicks, especially anything with that Danny Dyer diamond geezer sort, but I'm sorely tempted to go and see the latest offering, 'The Firm', just for the sartorial element, can't beat a good bit of Sergio gear...


Casuals...

If nothern football supporters were monkeys, Liverpool fans would have to be those cheeky litle scamp like monkeys you get in safari parks, lots of joking around, trying to make you laugh, and then when you're not looking nicking bits off your car.


Leeds monkeys would adopt the Millwall ''no one likes us we don't care'' approach, so would have to be one of those 'let's show the world my arse' Orangutangs.


As for Utd fans, well I've 'bumped' into a few gorillas in my time, but I reckon Fergie is a deadringer for that Proboscis monkey...

    • 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.
