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! ;-)

    • What was he doing on the stage at Glastonbury? Or on the stage at the other concert in Finsbury Park? Grinning like a Cheshire cat whilst pissed and stoned 20 somethings on the promise of free internet sung-- Oh Jeremy Corbyn---  What were his policies for Northern mining towns with no jobs or infrastructure? Free Internet and university places for youngsters. What were his other manifesto pledges? Why all the ambiguity over Brexit?  I didn't like Thatcher, Blair or May or Tony but I respected them as politicians because they stood by what they believed in. I respect all politicians across the board that stick to their principles. Corbyn didn't and its why he got  annihilated at the polls. A socialist, anti imperialist and anti capitalist that said he voted for an imperialist and pro capitalist cabal. He refused to say how he'd vote over and over again until the last knockings. He did so to appease the Islington elite and middle class students he was courting. The same people that were screaming that Brexit was racist. At the same time the EU were holding black and Asian immigrants in refugee camps overseas but not a word on that! Corbyn created and courted a student union protest movement that screamed at and shouted down anyone not on the left . They claimed Starmer and the centre right of labour were tories. He didn't get elected  because he, his movement and policies were unelectable, twice. He turned out not to have the convictions of his politics and died on his own sword.    Reform won't win an election. All the idiots that voted for them to keep out Labour actually enabled Labour. They'll be back voting tory next time.    Farage wouldn't be able to make his millions if he was in power. He's a very devious shyster but I very much doubt he'd actually want the responsibility that governance requires.
    • The purge of hard left members that were part of Corbyn's, Mcdonnel's and Lansmans momentum that purged the party of right wing and centrist members. That's politics. It's what Blair did to win, its what Starmer had to do to win. This country doesn't vote in extreme left or right governments. That's partly why Corbyn lost  We're pretty much a centrist bunch.  It doesn't make it false either. It's an opinion based on the voting patterns, demography and statistics. Can you explain then why former mining constituencies that despise the tories voted for them or abstained rather than vote for Corbyns Labour?  What is the truth then? But he never got elected!!! Why? He should have been binned off there and then. Why he was allowed to hang about is an outrage. I hold him party responsible for the shit show that we've had to endure since. 
    • Depends on what the Barista says doesnt it? There was no physical confrontation with the driver, OP thinks she is being targetted when she isnt. These guys work min wage under strict schedules so give them a break unless they damage your stuff
