Whilst we're still on the subject (and as there is nothing of any consequence happening in English football today) delighted to see Coventry City back at the Ricoh and drawing 27,000 on Friday. May be a 'home-coming' peak but I hope the crowds stay.

i think that's hugely significant. He bent that team out of shape in the world cup, should have been dropped but del bosque had faith in him for some reason. I guess if he'd clicked it would have been a masterstroke, but it didn't work out that way.


In fairness i think it was EVERYONE!!!! ;-)

Not written off by me, far too many outstanding players in the squad to be written off. As for Costa, maybe now he will say that he has dreamed of playing for Brazil all along, just like Falcao and Dobby Di Maria have always dreamed of playing for Yanited.

I admit I wrote them off by which I mean I thought their style (and that of Barcelona par example) of pass-pass-pass aka ticky-tacky was being confounded by teams who pressed hard and high up (half way line) and that this latter style seemed to be winning through at the WC.


Interestingly Hodgson seems to have taken note (or at least his young players have) given the pressing and counter attacking v the Swiss.


On another note - given the financial-fair-play fine QPR may get (around ?50m?) from the FL for their last Championship season - if they stay up they'll surely be able to afford it even if they lose their appeal - does this make that fine irrelevant for teams considering spending huge amounts to try and get into the Prem?

The old clich? of you don't become a bad team overnight must work the other way too.

I think Wembley would be a goer but I hate that place and I wouldn't want to be going to the Effeminates and I'm certain Gooner fans wouldn't want us there either so I'd settle for Milton Keynes even though its capacity is only 22,000. There is of course the Olympic Stadium...

We certainly wouldn't want Spuds fans there, I think they should ground share with Leyton Orient.

    • There is also one for Goose green https://www.police.uk/pu/your-area/metropolitan-police-service/goose-green/?yourlocalpolicingteam=your-team Disclaimer: only passing on what I have found by searching. No involvement in organising it.  
    • It is a challenge.  These sorts of services are increasingly expensive to deliver as fewer and fewer people use them.  Most people don't want to have to go back to using their lunch hour to queue up at the bank or Post Office.  So the options  are - reduce the service, make it more expensive or the tax payer subsidises it.  
    • Surely increasing profits are not the reason? It's more about  preventing massive losses? You can't keep things going at vast expense because a few people still use them. We would still be in the stone age. There are always going to be some people who find it hard to use "modern" technology (which has been going for decades). I would have thought the answer was for those people to learn how to do the things they need to do? I'm sure lots of help must be available?  I'm one of the ancient ones, and around the end of the nineties I went on a free course to be taught how to go online and use the internet. It was quite a steep learning curve, but so is learning anything new. So in previous years was learning to use a PC and word processing. So was learning Excel and spreadsheets.  If you need to use something, you have to learn how to do it! Some people may not have the mental  capacity to do this, but in that case surely they will be getting support in other areas of their daily life already? And as regards the possible  closure of the crown post office (note - possible) we don't know what alternative arrangements may be made should this happen, so it seems a bit premature to be protesting about it at this point.
