Saturday, 1st August it is then - Hamlets v Sutton United.


Count me in. Who else is up for it?


So what is the plan Mockney?

Tevez move to Man City is a done deal apparently. Good signing for them, good financial move for him, but bad move if he wanted to win more things (in the immediate future anyway).


Sir Alex now saying his business is done for the summer. To be honest, I think their signings (Owen included) will prove successfull.


Would like to see the pool sign another couple, but both Rafa, and Sir Alex have talked about the inflated markets... Although unfortunately, we didn't benefit with ?80m from said market!

Getting rid of him will be great for the Arsenal. He had one really good season, but since then, he's been a disgrace. Hopefully City will pay you well over the odds for him. From what Wenger has said though, I think he'd use the money to tighten up the back, rather than buying a replacement forward. Could be wrong though.


I honestly thought that it may be Wenger who offered Owen his shock return to a top 4 club, as he's been a long time admirer.

Well I really tried to keep the pledge but there we are... bang!


I don't know what you are on about Keef. I think what you have to remember is that this isn't the Houllier days when at one time we had Owen, Heskey, Anelka, Baros and Litmannen all on our books.


Pre-season training has started and doubtless we'll see some run outs for Pacheco and Nemeth of which there are very high hopes but realistically it'll be a bonus if they make any impact this season. To win the title you need goalscorers and attitude and apart from Torres we only have Voronin and Ngog - both of whom are worse options than Bellamy.


Bellamy scored a cracker for City at Anfield last season, and also crashed the woodwork for West Ham at Anfield. Be good backup for Torres with his pace - if he was made available for reasonable price but seeing as Rafa turned down Owen on a freebie extremely unlikely as no one holds a grudge quite like Rafa (well apart from Ferguson).


Right back to no Big 4 talk from me unless provoked ;-)

Nothing wrong with talking about big 4 just all that utd v liverpool stuff!


My early observations - all the big 4 a bit worried about their finances, especially levels of debt and also scared that City may take one of their places (my view unlikely with Hughes in charge) with Arsenal the most vunerable.

There will be increased talk about a european super-league driven by money rather than demand this will eventually happen and fail

Upson will go to Arsenal

Portsmouth will implode

Champions League will not be won by an english team.

I don't know what you are on about Keef. I think what you have to remember is that this isn't the Houllier days when at one time we had Owen, Heskey, Anelka, Baros and Litmannen all on our books.


Yeah, and what a lot of good that did us.


You don't mention Kuyt, who is a striker, not a winger. I personally would like to see a winger brought in.


RE: Bellamy, he has talent, I don't think anyone would honestly question that. He has 2 major weaknesses however. 1. He is injuried a lot. And 2, which is much more important, he is only mildly less of a liability than Barton! He's a nasty piece of work, who even fights his own team. I hope he never ever gets the chance to pull on a Liverpool shirt again!


Oh, and he's bloody Welsh of all things! ;-)

    • We've got a Victorian coal hole cellar with a mud floor and after a couple of severe water leaks, I've taken more of an interest in the state of the dampness.  I've been running a dehumidifier for the past couple of weeks following a small water pipe leak and whilst most of the floor is now bone dry, there are damp patches along most of the wall adjoining the next house, a large damp patch in the middle of the floor that will not dry even with the dehumidifier right next to it and a patch of wet mud in a small hollow in the middle of the cellar.  An expert that lent us industrial drying equipment following a flood from a burst mains pipe said there will always be damp, but I'm a bit concerned in case there is a fundamental problem - any ideas from anyone with similar?
    • Best you post when you have an idea of dates  - waste  of everyone’s time
    • Hi there,  Looking for 10-12 jars (to start with) of local honey to fill a small section of a deli space in my work canteen. Please get in touch if you know of any community projects/small scale productions Cheers
    • Yeah, it did work out in the end, but it was way more stressful and expensive than it needed to be. He lost money. He had higher offers early on, but those buyers pulled out because of all the delays. On top of that, he spent a fortune on legal fees trying to get the neighbour to sign off on the freehold transfer. It dragged on for ages. In the end, he was lucky the final buyer stuck with it, but the price was lower, and the whole thing left a bad taste. A lesson learned. Share of freehold can be a real nightmare if the other owners aren’t cooperative. You’ve got to be 100 per cent sure everyone’s reasonable, otherwise it’s just not worth the hassle.
