I also tipped Arsenal before the start of the season. At the time they had only signed Cech, and I thought they would at least sign a striker to give Giroud some competition. I know it's difficult signing a quality plrayer in January, but Wenger really should've pushed the boat out to sign one. They can still win it, and I've predicted them to beat Leicester on Sunday, but I've just got this feeling that Spurs will sneak it. I'd love Leicester to win it, but Spurs winning the league will be just as refreshing for the game...

And more fun. I just don't really enjoy going to big stadium matches, no soul.

Yeah, I always think the worse when I'm at White Hart Lane. I can't relax and enjoy the game as much as I do at Dulwich Hamlet. I feel far less pressure at Champion Hill. Spurs can be three-nil up with five minutes to go and I still think the other team can snatch it. And in those last five minutes I'm having a series of heart attacks and begging the referee to blow the final whistle. I think it's best for my health and my wallet if I just stay away from now on.

One thing in Leicester's favour is the maximum number of games they will play this season is 13. The others could be playing 20+ because of the cups. All the big clubs including Spurs will want to win something. I don't expect they will just throw away that chance for the PL but try and manage it fielding weaker team's when they think they can get away with it.


United may need to concentrate on winning the Europa for CL qualification next season. If they go on a run though someone may drop out of the current top 4. Wonder who that might be? Makes it interesting from every angle. I tipped Arsenal too. It's almost now or never for them. Should be fun on Sunday.

If I was a Spurs fan I'd want MoPo to field a very weakened team for the Europa. Ok, if they win it they get a cup, but they have a real chance of winning the PL this year and are looking strong to finish in the top 4 and get into the CL next season, regardless. Go for it!...
Moyes was sacked as soon as it became apparent we wouldn't qualify for the CL. LVG is not far away from that situation. I see absolutely no point in keeping him for the last year of his contract. He's not going to turn things around in 1 season, he won't change...
Rooney isn't fit to polish Bobby Charlton's boots. I'm old enough remember what a fabulous player he was. The drop of the shoulder and thunder in both boots. Pure class. Total legend. Fantastic player. One of the best but not quite George, who simply was the best ever.

One way of keeping certain sections of the fanbase entertained and it is Holland after all

    • "Dedicated to the purpose-built student accommodation sector. PBSA News is the leading source of news, insights and analysis for professionals, investors and stakeholders in the purpose-built student accommodation sector. With a mission to provide the latest information and foster collaboration within the rental community."   The PBSA take on the strength of the market seems much more upbeat than does the govt. research paper. Perhaps they are right or perhaps it is in their interests to talk up the market?    
    • I think a lot of people here are just speculating about empty student accommodation properties. Student accommodation developments are very popular because they provide really great rates of return for the owner. A large student accommodation owner, Unite Students, saw 97.5% occupancy across their assets in the 2024/2025 academic year. They have many properties in London; https://pbsanews.co.uk/2024/10/09/unite-students-reports-record-occupancy-rates-in-q3-2024-update/ Here's a bit from CBRE on PBSA properties in London from May 2024: https://www.cbre.co.uk/press-releases/london-plan-policy-fails-to-deliver-affordable-student-accommodation - "According to new research by CBRE and QX Global, the gap between demand for PBSA and available supply in London currently stands at 100,000 – 105,000 full-time students, underscoring how demand for student housing has outpaced supply." - The development pipeline in London isn't keeping up with the demand. Ultimately this development wouldn't be built if student accommodation wasn't in demand. It's proximity to the station means that a student could get to any number of universities easily in a short span of time. Is it ideal? No. Would more affordable housing be better? Yes. Is speculating about channel migrants occupying the space uninformed idiocy? Absolutely.
