Just watched the England game and you have to say that was pretty good. Life's so much easier when Lampard's injured and we don't try to bodge them in at the same time.

Dawson still looked a bit iffy until he got injured I thought, Jagielka did OK, Hart looks like he's always been there. 'Arry can't be happy though as that looks like a bad injury.


And as a City fan I delighted we had four young ish players on the pitch.

Yup, thought we looked pretty good last night. God performances from Rooney and Gerrard. Hart looks the business between the sticks and a cracking hat-trick from Jermain Defoe. I think we can forget about the likes of Terry, Lampard and Ferdinand. Gutted for Michael Dawson though. Looks like he could be out for quite some time.

It's not often I agree with ITV commentators but I thought he hit it on the head when he pointed out that the players were all playing in essentially their club positions, and what a difference it makes.


Who've Spurs got as their centre half pairing now? Gallas might turn out to be a good signing eh?

Hmmmm.... though as pleased as punch that I am with the performances of quite a few players in the last couple of England games I am bloody pissed off that Jermain Defoe and Michael Dawson have now been ruled out for the next eight weeks missing important games in the Champions League and Premiership plus the Carling Cup match against Arsenal. Grrr!

I think John Terry and Frank Lampard could struggle to get back into the starting XI. I think Lampard will only get back in if Gerrard is unfit as he can do the same job. I was very impressed with Adam Johnson who has proved he is a class player who will be able to fill in on either flank. Terry must be sweating on his place with two very good performances from Jagielka.

John Terry's affair affected another squad member and he lost the captaincy but not his place in the team. What did you think should have happened to Rooney?

I did some research and in 60-61 there were 5 B's in the first division. In those days they played 42 games, Spurs won the league scoring only 50 goals in the process and they were top scorers. Sheff W were second and they only scored only 33 goals. Must have been boring then!

      Nursery school

      Not sure about changing hands but the Peckham Rye one is open and hasn’t had any random closures. Our child is very happy there but there was a resolved Ofsted complaint half way through last year.  Things don’t look good for the Devon nursery owned by the same company - looks like loads of issues with Ofsted which can be seen in its latest report.

      Have a great nhs dentist accepting patients

      By Sue · Posted

      I was in Forest Hill Road today, just past the Rye, and noticed there is a dentist next to the Herne (pub) that has NHS signs outside. I've never had any problems getting NHS dental treatment in East Dulwich, and I get regular check ups. I've been to three  different dental practices here over the years, all with NHS treatment. I think the difficulties are in other parts of the country. Malumbu has a good explanation above. I didn't hear the Radio 4 programme, but I'm guessing that a  radio programme is not going to have time to say where you CAN easily get NHS treatment, and is bound to focus on the negatives and the horror stories, otherwise it would be very boring! ETA: Re children's teeth, I think the major issue is not lack of dentists, it is children being given sugary food, drinks and confectionery which rots their teeth. The education of parents needs to be about this, not just about tooth brushing. And in some cases the poor diet may also be due to lack of money for healthy food. Though of course the lack of dentists doesn't help, if  the tooth rotting can't be rectified by fillings or extraction.

      Boycotting US products

      Well, I hope you like what you see, the hot air, lack of answers and continual blaming things on the last Government and the made up blackhole, I find are nauseating. The man needs to see reality, because I'd guess that if we had a snap election tomorrow and based on the first six months of this parliament, Labour would get trounced. When the election does finally happen and if that isn't before the people rise up and throw this lot out, Labour will not be voted back in for a millennium.
