Mathew, bulshit comparisons, the words in you post sum it up Given by you and Taken by you...we get your scraps you take our best so going back to your original moan about player loyalty = can we have Yossi back? he didn't finish his contract with us when you came knocking, where's his loyalty?

Hang on Don Hutchison was a top player and was very disappointed to see him leave Anfield. He'd have been a key player in the Liverpool midfield for quite a few years but his disciplinary problems meant we sold him on to West Ham. You got a very good player for peanuts. In terms of what we lost it was a hell of a lot more than what we gained from signing Yossi. Yossi is a great little player and is probably more of a loss to West Ham than an addition to Liverpool.


As for Crouch, we didn't want to sell but he moaned and groaned and so Rafa let him go - I think Pompey got the better end of the bargain having Crouch than us getting G.Johnson. We already have 3 international right backs at Anfield whereas Crouch would walk into the Liverpool team if we revert to 4-4-2.

C'mon Matthew you're grasping at straws again!

Last night Skybet took ?200 worth of bets @ 66/1, to quote Skybets' Dale Tempest, 'from a dozen people'.

Skybet then cut the odds down to 33/1, and straightaway the same thing happened from the same group of people.

Skybet eventually slashed the odds to 8/13, as a precaution, as they took a hit on Michael Owen recently.

It's very easy to manipulate this type of betting market with relatively small amounts of people and money.

Glen Johnson is yer lot this year...;-)

He did well second half of last season, got a lot more involved and showed his quality. If you're going to play him it's got to be with the emphasis on attack to float behind and support the front runners. Unfortunately where Yossi would be best is where Gerrard is automatic choice.

No...Darren Bent, ?16.5 million (same as the god like Thierry Henry who has won everytning under the sun) for a player thats won fcuk all and about as talented as Carlton Palmer.

That has to be the biggest load of bollocks ever, never qiute made the grade at Barca? Are you on medication you plank? He'd walk it your, and nearly every other, team no worries. That's the soRt of thinG I expect from a Man Ure fan, SUNSHINE PLAYER MY HAIRY ARSE.

Some fcuking "sunshine" player eh??? FOR FOOKS SAKE.

You serious Mick? Henry is a great player - best to ever grace the Premiership by a country mile. Cantona is not fit to lace his boots.


We'll have to see about Glen Johnson, not sure he's that good defensively but then I might be overly critical of his time at Chelsea. The key thing at Liverpool will be his defending as he'll soon have to toe the line about not charging forward.

Yes matthew, that's word.

Cantona was a disgrace who was lucky not have been banged up in prison - but then I'd expect a Man U fan to demand a knighthood! The Cantona myth is not something I buy into just because he played for United. I'd even say Ronaldo was a better footballer when you cut through all that nonsensical poetry crap he came up with about the seagulls which seems to have added to the legend, LOL.


You cannot compare world class players like Torres and Gerrard with a player who couldn't even get into the French international team at a time when they were worse than England.

Who said Cantona wasn't a great player for United? I simply said he was not fit to lace the boots of Henry, much like a lot of other so called world class players pronounced to us by the media.


United have had a few world class players under Ferguson but Eric Cantona was most certainly not one of them!


Cantona might have been one of the best players in the Premiership during his time in England but just because this was during the period of Carlton Palmer, Geoff Thomas, Nigel Clough and Fash the Bash does not mean he was on a par with Stanley Matthews either.


Anyway, I was just picking up on the remarks that Henry was a 'sunshine player' who'd not quite 'made the grade'.


This is not anti-United bashing either - it's merely a pre-season warm up ;-)

No Anna, he made a direct comparison to Liverpool players Torres and Gerrard and I was just pointing out a fact, yet again, that he was more successful in the league than they were. Anyway, let's not start all this again. Henry was a wonderful player who I used to enjoy watching a lot, the unbeaten Arsenal side were great to watch, so Gerrard and Torres. Is that ok?


Obviously united players are cloggers who only win by luck and bunging the ref. :))

    • Our cellar was damp constantly and we were told that there were many underground streams in Dulwich (which eventually end up in the river in Belair Park),  Agree it is connected  to the water table. We had all old plaster removed from walls and replastered, 
    • Andy did a good job for me doing up a flat - bedrooms, bathroom and kitchen for a very reasonable rate. He’s a top notch painter and decorator and can turn his hand to many other trades too. I’d highly recommend him - nothing was too much trouble.
    • A ramp would not be suitable for Love Dulwich. Gradient would be too steep, also length of ramp would go into road. We considered a ramp in the house to get down 2 steps (internal) but an OT who measured said we would need a clear space of around 9 feet plus because of the height of steps.
    • Over the past few months, Jan from Silver Fern Landscapes has completed several projects for us.  (He was recommended by a neighbour.)  We have been very pleased with his work.  Some details are below: Built and replaced several trellis fence panels.  In one part it was very complicated due to a large vine that had grown into/around the trellis.  He was able to save the vine, having unpicked it from the old trellis and then securing it to the new.  The vine went into a bit of shock, but is now thriving. Repaired the top frame to our garden side-return door, replacing rotten wood, and repainting the new to match. Repaired the loose tiles in our front walkway Along the way, during his visits, Jan also gave advice on various topics, such as how to best care for: our recently re-planted lawn, a tree that lost a large branch, and the vine mentioned above.  His working style is straight forward...he shows up when he says he will, discusses what needs to be done, provides timely quotes, completes the work as agreed, and sends an invoice. No drama, no hassle.  We will definitely be calling on Jan again when future garden-related projects arise! silverfernlondon.co.uk/silver_fern_landscapes.html
