Perhaps WH fans will get off BFS's back then. He isn't a long ball merchant as everyone takes him to be. Very unfair on him.

Not unfair - he IS. In today's paper he moans about being labelled one - which he denies - then says "Here's a question: if the club against whom you're playing have spent ?100million more than you have but can't cope with your team's tactics who is the guilty party?"


That's a bloody admission. Not just the long-ball it's the "There-are-away-games-against-big-teams-we-can't-win-so-we-may-as-well-not-bother-too-much-and-save-ourselves-for-the-home-games-to-guarantee-survival-but-f*ck-all-else" attitude. I hope he goes.

Charles Green has told Rangers' board he intends to leave his chief executive role "with immediate effect".


Green took up the position last summer after leading a consortium that purchased the assets of the liquidated Rangers Football Club plc.


He is now the subject of an independent investigation, commissioned by the club's board, following allegations of covert dealings with former Rangers owner Craig Whyte.


Green says it's "appropriatew" to leave.


A club spokesman told the London Stock Exchange: "Recent weeks have seen media interest in the circumstances surrounding the period prior to the acquisition of the club by the consortium led by Mr Green.


"Whilst Mr Green strenuously denies any wrongdoing, he has recognised that this negative publicity is a distraction and is detracting from the achievements and reputation of the club.

Have a look at the 2nd set of stats for passes. There isn't much difference between WH and Man U for example apart from the number of short passes.

Stats schmats they don't prove anything - after all a couple of players can rack up the pass count by meaningless exchanges in harmless areas of the pitch. But stats and 'tables' are what BFS relies on too - "Look at the figures - we're not as long ball as some teams...etc etc\" -


I am not trying to present a reasoned unbiased argument like a Lawro et al - I just don't like the way things are developing. We're not Bolton or Stoke and I would rather be relegated again and rebuild from scratch than use muscle as a substitute for skill. Mad innit?

      Decision 2 April - Proposed Development - The Sidings, Railway Rise, SE22

      By first mate · Posted

      @ ed pete "there still has to be the demand". I don't know but wondering if developers have been able to make a case based on the increase in demand from 2023-2024. The research I looked at said demand had risen by 500 in that period,  but was still below an all time high in 2022.   There will be others who know much more about this area who can give the rationale in favour; perhaps this latest govt. research is incorrect or only gives part of the story. My point is if, as seems likely, this development does little to solve the current housing crisis at local level for the non student population, I hope that the council is very, very sure that this level of student accommodation is warranted at this location. I have not managed to look at the plans in detail but how sustainable are the plans for the build; how will it be heated, what about impact on water and waste services?

      There is also I believe some evidence that students are choosing to go to universities, where they do, closer to home so as to avoid additional costs by living at home. Personally I think this is a mistake - being an undergraduate is a first chance for independence - but if economics and costs are making this so the demand for accommodation such as this will again be weakened.

      Good plumber - Ade

      A good plumber - Ade Okoosi. He came to do some plumbing for a new kitchen at a flat in Camberwell, sealed up a gas pipe and put in some taps and a thermostatic shower. On another occasion he rapidly removed a radiator. Would definitely use again.  Ade 07961981944

      Interesting the projected demand.  One imagines that you don't undertake this kind of investment without the business case to back it up.  There's one going up near a friends office in the City that is for 782 students.  OK, these are much closer to HE establishments but there still has to be the demand. https://dominusrealestate.co.uk/projects/65crutchedfriars/
