Well for me, the lesser of two evils won. Ridiculous amount of plastic flags being displayed on merseyside and every shop had a blue window display.


Brought a smile to my face when Guus collected the cup. Glad he's leaving Chelsea though, I actually quite like him. Bring back Maureen the panto villain.

We parked on a back street last week in Liverpool and whilst our wheel was being fixed, after some scally wags had punctured a tyre, there was one house whose bay window was completely decked out in FA Cup Final club shop flags & scarves. I suppose they'll now have a special DVD out to commerate their season's success.. featuring the semi-final penalty shoot-out, the first 25 seconds yesterday and of course the defining moment when they knocked Liverpool out.. oh I forgot ITV were running adverts at the pinnacle of their season so I guess it'll have to be a youtube clip.

Commiserations to 'People's Club' ;-) Everton, but Chelski fully deserved their victory.

I'm with Anna, Hiddink is far too likeable to be the Chelski manager, give us a proper pantomine villian to boo!.. there was talk of Ancelotti maybe going to Real on Sky this morning (makes sense if Kaka is their No. 1 target), so maybe it's not a done deal, whoever it is they will need to sign a top class striker, can't see Drog staying especially if he gets a lengthy ban...


It's just been confirmed on Chelski website that Ancelotti is their new manager...boo!!!

Don't wish to upset David Carnell (much!) or the other Leeds fans hereabouts, but there's a rumour going round that Beckford is off to Sheffield United in part exchange for Bill Sharp....This is just so ridiculous, and such a bad deal for Leeds (no matter how low Sharp is valued), it may just be true...:))

Thanks for the welcome but that hasn't answered my question, or has that delightful chant come back to bite you all on the bottom. Argentina, Argentina, Argentina.

New fixtures out 17th June - but of course we'll have to wait another week afterwards before the TV stations fook about with them and have us playing on a Monday night, Sunday lunchtime etc etc.


Only prediction I'm making for next season is that Ancelotti will take the same path as Scolari, before the inevitable call is made to their spiritual son Gianfranco Zola.

You don't have to protect me Piers, but thanks anyway. If you dish it out you should be able to take it. I just think it's despicable for an English teams supporters to chant for another national side WHATEVER slant you put on it. But isn't wonderful how it's come back to haunt them. Don't you just love Messi?

    • Thanks P. That sounds like a bargain compared to other horror stories I've heard! 
    • DD, "Rejoice rejoice. It's a pity he and his fellow clowns were completely annihilated at the ballot box. I mean they were doing so well after all 🙃🙃" At least the economy and unemployment weren't in the mess they are now. What is it, give the public sector a whopping pay increase with no strings attached, double the black hole and then blame it on the last Govt. Give me strength. Rachel from accounts shouldn't be anywhere near the economy. The final straw was increasing employer NI contributions and look how that's worked out. Month on month both inflation and unemployment have risen. Won't be long before inflation and u/e are exceeding 5%, but guess what, They'll blame Sunak and go.  Lets have a snap election right NOW, then see how poorly Starmer, Reeves and Rainer do. They're already plotting to get rid of Starmer, and if you think its bad now, you ain't seen nothing yet. Oh and did I mention Starmer wanting to stop Freedom of Speech............................................Normal people can see right through what him and co are doing, great at spending other peoples money, him and co don't have = bankruptcy. We'll just repeat the economic collapse that happened in Greece and wasn't it in Italy as well?
    • One of the best of Shakespeare 's plays.  I did Othello for A level. Also seen a number of stage and film versions. Is there any specific aspects of the play that is difficult for your daughter to understand?  
    • @Sue think this is your quote.  It wasn't binary, good Vs bad, and Corbyn had a lot of popular support, as evidenced by the previous election. He had aot of good policies, some picked up by others since. He was defeated by a mixture of a right wing press,good targeting the Johnson 'Get Brexit Done" and for some that Johnson was a funny loveable rogue/fool/liar/philander/opportunist.  I wouldn't see choosing the perceived least worst candidate out of the two major parties as being "good sense'.  We imagine that Corbyn would have been terrible, but we don't know.  He would have taken a stronger line against Israel in Gaza, not sucked up to Trump nut on Russia?  Would the UK be better for that?
