Real lack of creative spark that was abundant 4-5 weeks ago.

Still in with a sniff though thanks to the results.

Baller League

A strange 6-a-side competition seems to have started on Sky Sports. Entertaining enough but obviously aimed at the ‘screen time’ generation.

I’ve just seen James Alabi playing in a game that seems to require higher than usual levels of technical ability.

Re: Labour Watch

This is so f*cking predictable. Every single time someone even the teensiest little bit slightly left of centre, not towing the Established line, picks up a little bit of support, then boom. In they come. :( Maybe the problem is with immediately adopting people who are “a teensy bit left of centre”...

Re: England Squad

GibbO The fact that he’s 34 years old Spent last 2 years playing in Saudi and Dutch leagues And more importantly, he’s not good enough! hopefully he won’t play in either game, and just end up warming the bench.

Re: England Squad

I support Leyton Orient.

Henderson comes in for unfair criticism in my opinion. He was daft to go to Saudi.

What is it that people don’t like about him?
