    Isn't he the longest serving manager Spurs have had since Terry Venables...which may say more about Spurs than Harry of course.

    Morning All, Nice sunny morning here but the weather forecast is not good.

    Thanks for the coffee Ak.

    I got petrol yesterday at the dome roundabout for GBP 1,29.4 I was only paying Euro 1,29.9 which was about GBP 1,04 at the exchange rate then in Cyprus last week :steam:.

    Morning all - heard a big rumour this morning that the take-over by the Udinese bloke will be completed soon. Apparently we get £5M for transfers, a new stand and access to Udinese & Granada players for swaps & loans & Baz goes sweet FA....frying pans & fires?

    Charlie, it's called 'The Glint of Silver'...a steal at 97p! I hope you enjoy it. I've just this minute finished editing an early part of the sequel...a few months' work to go on that yet.

    This will be good for pre-season friendly football matches. Borehamwood and Wealdstone or Udine and Granada I prefer the last two.




    New new football kit by Legea?

    I agree about the locations however I'm only 5 mins walk from the Borehamwood Ground, whilst Granada is on 2.5 hours flight away. :emoticon-0111-blush

    I think I would get my flight with Aer Lingus. I checked last week, and it was going to be about £100 for a return from Bristol to Cork... They don;t seem to fly direct too often though so making a change was going to make it a lot more expensive!

    As for Harry, wasn't really a surprise. the poor form since the 5-2 defeat to Arsenal, giving away such a points lead didn't help, but just think there was a lrage breakdown in the relationship and his flirting with the England job never helped - goodl old rent-a-quote Harry!

    Bolton 7/1
    Wolves 8/1
    Leeds 9/1
    Birmingham 12/1
    Cardiff 12/1
    Blackpool 14/1
    Brighton 14/1
    Blackburn 14/1
    Middlesbrough 14/1
    Sheffield Wednesday 20/1
    Ipswich 20/1
    Charlton 20/1
    Nottingham Forest 22/1
    Burnley 28/1
    Hull 33/1

    At those odds it has to be worth a small wager I would have thought. Nice to see that we have been written off already. ;)

    OFH - Assume that is for winners? What about promoted or finishing in the top 6?

    This is SkyBets - to win the league outright (but shorter odds 'eachway' for 2nd or 3rd - assuming that is winning the playoffs). They do not have any other markets for the Championship yet - expect they will show up nearer the start of the season! Watford are at better odds here.... (or worse, depdning on how you see it)

    Championship Winner 12/13 - Win Outright 1/4 for first 3 places

    Leicester City 6/1
    Bolton 8/1
    Wolves 8/1
    Leeds 9/1
    Cardiff 12/1
    Birmingham 12/1
    Brighton 14/1
    Blackburn 16/1
    Nottingham Forest 16/1
    Blackpool 16/1
    Sheffield Wednesday 18/1
    Charlton 20/1
    Middlesbrough 20/1
    Burnley 25/1
    Ipswich 25/1
    Hull 28/1
    Huddersfield 33/1
    Derby 33/1
    Watford 40/1
    Millwall 66/1
    Bristol City 66/1
    Crystal Palace 66/1
    Peterborough 100/1
    Barnsley 200/1
