  1. Do you really think the authorities are really happy about LC looking like being champions?

    They must be horrified

    A bit like I feel seeing Tottenham up there..

    But seriously. I don't believe there's a conspiracy. It's just that some teams are cynical and dive a lot (e.g Arsenal) and get the decisions against more honest teams (e.g West Ham).

    I also think no ref wants to be the one to spoil Leicester's party. I would do the same.

  2. We have Leicester away coming up soon. I would have been happy for us to forfeit that game and make it harder for that other team to come top, but we need the points. They're the only top 4 side to have beaten us this year, but I think we can upset them.

    I just remembered that that other team beat us too :( Must have pushed that to the dark recesses of my memory.

  3. Yet another 2 points stollen from West Ham.

    I wonder how much the match officials are being paid by the FA to keep West Ham out of the champions league.

    The thought of Leicester and West Ham making it must be too much for them.

    Too late to stop Leicester but they can make sure West Ham dont make it.

    The goal was not even close to offside. Even the biased Howard Webb on commentary admitted it.

    Bilic might as well send out a reserve team for the rest of the season.

    It wont make any difference.

    If Andy Carroll had been sent off as he should have been you might have ended up with no points

    Ref was right there. It was an accidental arm in the face. If Gabriel wasn't such a tart, in keeping with the whole team, it would have gone unnoticed.

  4. I just got in from the game. I think the result was probably fair, but I felt the ref was being too easily conned by Arsenal's diving. I know I'm biased, but I really thought the ref was poor. Not sure whose fans will be less satisfied. Ours, or the plastic mob from Woolwich Islington,

    But first it's Man United in the cup. Gonna be a big night. Our last cup and league games at the Boleyn are both against them, and they should both be crackers.

  5. I can assure you they don't climb at that angle when loaded with around 300 passengers, their luggage and fuel for a long haul. Even if it were still capable of doing so, passenger comfort is priority.

    whilst i agree on your comment about climbing, Most planes can climb and turn at a tighter angel than they do , they dont for passenger comfort. also all

    planes with two engines can take off and land on only one engine to.

    Indeed they are more than capable. Driving a Ferrari around a city centre springs to mind. (i.e. leashed & unusable performance)

    It seems many modern commercial airlines now have only 2 engines whereas in the past they would have 4.

    Is it right a fully laden 2 engine plane can take off on 1? I don't know. (I know they can fly on one)

    They can. They have to be able to do that.

  6. I know that on the face of it to an outsider, Allardyce going looks like a mistake. But honestly the last few seasons have been so hard to watch and we have wasted so many points. I'm glad it's over and I was relatively supportive of him.

    As for Bilic, I was in Australia when he played for us so don't have particular memories of him except for making Laurent Blanc miss the world cup final. I think the crowd will support him from the off, which Allardyce never had.

  7. Premier league needs both Newcastle and Sunderland its one of the biggest football rivalries.

    However:

    1. I can't see Newcastle winning again this season although there's only one game to go

    2. I can't see Hull beating Man U

    Some serious <deleted> has to happen at the Magpies for them to become a class act.

    Sunderland.........they also need help

    West Ham are so bad these days. It's exactly sort of game where we will capitulate and let in 6.

  8. If any of my mates went to one of these places and I hadn't explained how it all worked and the risks involved, knowing as much as I do about this scene, I think I'd be blaming myself.

  9. Even the BBQ places that have feral cats wandering around them don't stink of cat crap.. Actually, the only pleasure I find in those places is from feeding prawns to the cats.
