Of course it was Damian. It's Longford. Great place and the team I used to watch. Star player in those days was John Givens. No, not Don of QPR fame, his brother.

United looked great for about 20 minutes today. After that just frustration. Need a centre forward pronto unless Fellani is considered the answer.


By the way Glenn Hoddle, if you are given a job on TV as a pundit, don't you think you should at least know that Fellani was not a sub and therefore could not come on and cause the threat to the Newcastle defence you thought he might.

And try not to let bias cloud your judgement a la Michael Owen

Declan you must be paranoid, I AGREE with you, I was simply saying Hoddle and Owen show bias in their reporting. Happy now?

You still at this doc? Did you sleep with BFS's missus or something?


Okay i'll bite - a glorious f*ck up - terrible first half - Jenkinson and Creswell had a mare but didn't get much in the way of protection from midfield, play was too narrow and yes the system is taking time to gel but so what? I think it will - things will adapt and it's better to have these problems now than in a few months time. We need a striker and to learn to go wide when it's needed and for players to get over the nerves of playing at UP and stop the headless chicken routine when they f%ck up.


It'll come.


I am equal parts excited, disappointed, annoyed, frustrated, BUT I am not bored. I not looking ahead to a season of safety-first, percentage-based, dullness.


I think I once said I'd rather lose 4-3 in an exciting/dramatic game than win 1-0 in a bore fest. So now is the test. And i still feel that way.


COYI.

    • The govt research cited earlier in this thread suggests that the number of foreign uni students seeking places is reducing and that this is nothing to do with available accommodation, but with rising uni course fees and issues to do with visas. So I wonder what the true level of demand will be for these student rentals, if many cannot afford them? If there was insufficient uptake on the student side what would happen to the properties?
    • Just seen them! Moved into Barry Rd 33 years ago and remember watching dozens of them in the sky as we sat in the back garden the first evening. Look out for them every year. Lifts your spirits when they arrive. 
    • Aleksandra was the driving force behind the conversion of what was a nice but very outdated house into what is now my beautiful, vibrant and modern home. I cannot recommend her enough- she was a pleasure to work with- she has an uncanny eye for detail and her sense of style is unparalleled. She knew where to push me beyond my “safe beige” colours but always kept my personality and preferences in mind. She sourced fabric / colours / lighting designs , she found local options for spectacular interior ideas in the kitchen , display cabinets , bathrooms , bedrooms and wardrobes. She never went beyond budget and was very timely in her execution. The result was a beautiful home that even after 8 years looks as stunning as it did when first put together. It is as liveable as it is beautiful and none of it would have been possible with Alexandra. I truly could not recommend her highly enough- there are few people with her work ethic and style. Thank you Alexandra !
