With the new TV money an already competitive PL is going to get a lot more competitive. Clubs outside the top 6 don't have to sell a la Everton/Stones...

So you put your mortgage on it presumably?

I didn't see or hear about the reasons for the sendings off.

I really hope that is the case and the money doesn't go on stupid transfer fees and ridiculous wages.

That's the dog's bollocks.


Been waiting since I as a kid for a win at Anfield - remember a great 1-1 there in mid 70s when Keith Robson scored and Smith equalised and Mervyn Day played a blinder for us to get the draw.


Doesn't matter (to me anyway) that this isn't the Pool of old - we buried 'em.


Home form is down to nerves and the headless chicken panic when they feel the crowd on their backs. But with Nolan finally out of the way I think things will gel.

I did think about you today RD. Not for long though!


After our bad start & going one down, I thought I'd be congratulating you at the end & blaming our loss on the absence of Montero. But we didn't need him anyway!


I'm assuming you watched it & will agree that in the 2nd half we turned it around & deserved to win. :)

Not as far as I'm concerned. Who's going to give them a run for their money? Certainly not Arsenal, United, Liverpool or Chavs.

LVG has spent the best part of half a billion on his "project" with sod all return. Swansea deserved their victory today, Gary Monk showing you don't have to spend shed loads to get decent results. If any other manager had spent the same as LVG with the same end product the press would crucify them.

      Looking for a GP with experience of autoimmune rheumatic diseases

      By MarB · Posted

      I don't think there are stupid questions Sue.  There are informative questions, policy questions, normative questions.... You suggest to do a sort of survey! Interesting idea but not for me as I have other priorities and if I do not address these with NHS doctors I will go, once again, privately.  In any case as many people using this forum know, GP surgeries in England offer at present services that in most cases do not and cannot cover matters that are under the remit of secondary care - for instance rheumatologists clinics in hospitals. If the dismantlement of NHS England will bring possible positive changes also in primary care with more choices for people  I do not know but I would really hope so because at the moment lot of people with chronic rheumatic conditions  fall into the cracks  of he system, that means are not seen by NHS rheumatologists that have long queues and cannot be cured by GPs neither in most cases, even when (I am sure about this and I would like to know more) there are physicians and local GPs fully qualified and experts to do such jobs even if they are not rheumatologists!    Thank you for your time Sue and by the way  if you do any survey like the one you mentioned please let us know.

      There was a thread about this a year ago that included a post from the new owners. Be great to have an update - nothing seemed to be happening when I walked by last week. https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/343709-kenro-press-empty-shop-forest-hill-road/#comment-1662773

      Bin lorry overturned, Townley Road

      By Rockets · Posted

      And don't the Veolia collection teams wear uniforms with Southwark Council logo on them...this might explain why the councillors were so keen to point out the lorry wasn't operated by the council because if you saw a load of people clambering out of the cab of a lorry one that just rolled wearing clothing emblazoned with the council logo you might think it was being operated by the council. The Helen Hayes reference is weird as well it was almost as if the councillor post was: this is awful, nothing to do with us, speak to Helen.
