I agree we haven't played any team of note yet.


I'll still be happy to finish in the top 10

Despite Howard (you'd never realised he's a Manure supporter, would you :? ) Webb turning down a stonewall penalty, we still cruised past last years runaway champions 3-0. :lol:

I don’t normally follow football but you can’t help it this week what with one thing and another.

Can someone explain which skills a person would use to be an excellent manager if they readily admit to not being much cop at looking after money, adding up, writing, reading, or running a business?

Sounds perfect for the England job to me!

I was wondering whether I should apply but I think I might be over qualified! I think I could save the FA some money though, I could make an ar5e of things for a lot less than £6m a year.
Oooooh shiney!

Good to see that the Spurs team are back to full strength - 12 players returned to WHL after jury service.
