His Dad was different gravy
When interviewed outside court the reporter said have you anything to say to the victims - He responded with 'Who Russell'?
The sheer arrogance runs deep through the genes of that family |

The problem is with our fans we have to have someone to dig out - Boo boy if you like
Beginning of the season, it was Kone - Now he is scoring goals the heat is off him. So we look to someone else who is underperforming. Except in this case we have two and sadly they play together - Varane & Vale
Neither are c**p players, they are just experiencing a poor run of form. We know both are better than are currently playing, and I expect THEY know they are playing below the expected level. Sadly, with our injuries, JS cannot take them out of the firing line
I think they will come back to form, I just hope it is sooner rather than later because when playing well we know they make a difference. |

Thanks to all for the advice
We did quite a lot recommended on here:
Guided tour of 9/11 museum, memorial & The Observatory - Highly Recommend
Highline and Chelsea Market, and The Edge - Again, highly recommended
Sunset Cruise - Really nice because the weather for the week was amazing ranging from 19C - 22C and sunny all week
SUMMIT One Vanderbilt - Had a great morning up there post marathon with champagne for Mrs Superhoops and some great pics
Getting from the Airport was a mare though. Air Train had engineering work so got a yellow taxi to Jamaica and then the LIRR into Grand Central - Then had a nice NYPD officer escort us to the hotel. Only downside was he was a Chelski Supporter (and of course they had just gone out on pens to Liverpool in the cup so he got a bit of stick from us) - Going back to airport was simple
Foodwise, NYC was packed because of the marathon but we did get a chance to try some of the suggestions.
However, BklynRanger it spot on... That city is so expensive it is beyond belief. In my book we give tips for good service not to someone who is grumpy AF - Our hotel wasn't great either despite it carrying the Hyatt name. No hurry to return I have to say but the sights we saw were all really amazing |

I just wanted to say thanks to all who donated to Mrs Superhoops marathon fundraising page.
As you can see she raised nearly £3.4K towards two excellent causes.
Her day panned out really well and she achieved her goal comfortably. It was 21c on the day which for NYC in November is unseasonably warm but this helped her at the start when she had to sit around for 4 hours prior to starting at the starting village. I managed to see her at 5 different spots and the atmosphere was amazing and the organisation by NYC Runners was super smooth
Cannot believe that people are selling their medals online for £10,000 - Sometimes I don't get the world we live in
Anyway, thank you all again and the page is open for a few more weeks yet:

I'll explain why I downvoted:
This: Not sure whats to celebrate.
Other than that I agree it was a disappointing performance. But JD was forward on several occasions
HOWEVER, I said earlier, we have no right to expect to steamroller these teams just by turning up. All the best teams have to grind like we did today without the pretty football we have seen this season. I am positive however about where we are at given our current resources.
But that statement 'not sure whats to celebrate' is wrong for me. I celebrate all wins. You said earlier you were happy we won, then celebrate  |

Poor game, but 3 points - No one will remember the game but if in the play offs we'll remember the 3 points. Trouble is because JS and this squad have built our expectations so high that when we don't steamroller these teams everyone gets the hump
Look at Southampton - This is the championship and there is no GIVEN right to EXPECT a win
3 points, 68% possession and 21 shots on goal (would have liked more on target) but a good way to move into the International break |

at 19:31 27 Oct 2026
I was looking through the advice thread for our NYC trip this week and as usual Ted had given his input. That was literally just a few weeks ago.
As I said in another thread, I met him a few times as the 'legendary Ted' at the Adelaide. I loved the blunt but not rude posts he often made. No time for fannying about, called a spade a spade.
Will be sorely missed and RIP Ted and thoughts and prayers with all your family |
