On the one hand, it's not a pleasant thought.

On the other, raking in armfuls of Levy's (Kewis'?) cash might be quite amusing.

And we'd never be able to use the lavatories again knowing 'they' had been there. :-( We'd have to get the f**king place fumigated and exorcised every other week.

No. It won't do.

They'll get relegated and go skint inside 5 years anyway.

bumpy and we can no longer play our passing game?

for it, I must say. On the other hand, I don't think it could work as their fans would go f**king berserk.

generally Spursing it all over Islington. Some of us have to live there, you know.

Or, even better, to the marshes to groundshare with west ham

They seem to be slightly obsessed with the place

Obviously we were leetle beet depleted, spending with the handbrake on for a few seasons, but we seemed to even weather financialogeddon pretty well. Christ, we even managed to rearrange our debts in the middle of the crisis thanks to healthy CIB balances and not breaking any covenants.

At one point, development stopped as there was no money. Even from an engineering point of view it got a bit hairy at times.

Sir Charlie of Nicholas

for it?

I've no idea if it's true but I'm almost sure I read it somewhere. So that makes it a FACT.

FACT.

competition between semi-Germans and Tottenham, who do you think would win?

I'm going nowhere near the whole 'Y*d' thing there, no sirree.

I suspect both have had a fair bit of help though

nature thingy including the path by the railway to FP, and then round Isledon Village on the other side of the lines. Good use of the old railway lands sidings on both sides.

At the time I lived near there in 92-93, when Isledon Village was built, I had a vivid dream of the area being bombed in the war. They had a photograph of a bombed-out Isledon Road looking very like I remember that dream.

In one of the few non-bombed bits.

Psychogeographically speaking that whole bit was a massive barrier as you had to go down st thomas' road or all the way down iseldon road to get over the lines.

I have to walk two sides of a triangle to get from mine to Nag's Head. Its why the the terminus stations were all on the Euston Road - Paddington, Marylebone, Euston, Kings X, St Pancras, so that central London didn't get carved up and isolated in the same way.

I think South London is better in this respect, as most of its many railways are on arches you can go underneath.
