I didn't know Gary Ridley was a Woodlands Ward councillor. As leader of the Tory opposition group on CCC, he has been co-signing most of the press releases along with Duggins. Unusual to have consensus across the party divide, so i wonder if he has known about the impact on his ward for some...

Ditto Hannah Waddingham (Shame, Shame nun). They're just not my type, but i recognise that many of you won't agree!

Extraordinarily symmetrical face, but i'm afraid she doesn't do it for me.

Coventry City Council Planning Committee "Agenda item 1: So we've had a MasterPlan submitted about building a 20,000-seater football stadium on the site of the former Woodlands School on Broad Lane". "Who's sent that in then?" "A company called SISU Capital Ltd" "Tell them to do one" "Next item ..."

True - but not published on April Fools' Day!!

His wife is rather lovely so he must be doing something right!! Jack Black is another ugly fucker but he got to play the romantic lead opposite Gwyneth Paltrow in Shallow Hal. Corden is just bitter!

Think it's called "up-cycling" - the otherwise-fine Kirstie Allsopp is the queen of this, especially for Xmas decorations and presents. Absolute shite!

I thought the female Supt character was pretty weak, and the Slater gang a bit "Sweeney", but so far, so good.

"The whole public sector needs an overhaul", you said. But all of the points you make here are spot on.

James Corden says 'chubby' actors are shut out of romantic roles (BBC News) Is it because he's "chubby" - or just a talentless, annoying twat?!

I think that's how they tackled it in Brum recently, wasn't it? Get a city-wide Section 60 order. They did Operation Sceptre in Cov too, blitzing Hillfields for a week.

Whatever that patch of common is called between longford road and the canal, then - Sowe Valley Way??? Something like that !

Thanks FP

I started using it (the parking, not the word!) ages ago when you could cut through the building site at the top end (which was used as a matchday car park by the entrepreneurial landowner - but you could walk through for 50p) onto the canal towpath and up to the bridge near those flats then...

Just a quick one, anyone know if Blackburn Road (off Longford Road opposite the park) still available for parking on matchdays, or has it been subsumed into the exclusion zone?

No i wasn't implying that, it's just that maybe they are diluted by the negatives like the ones you described.

(Edited after reflecting on CvD's comment) Sure, our attendance record for the EFL Trophy at the new Wembley was broken yesterday, but if Oxford had been able to bring more, ours would have been close to what they had.

In general, away fans of any club are more the "die hard" types - NOT saying that those that only go to home games are not "true fans", by the way! So they will generally be the ones who make more noise. Yes, drink has something to do with it, but being outnumbered and wanting to out-sing the...

Pete, I could understand the issues the black community had with it in the 80s, when the police, and particularly the Met were well-documented as being institutionally racist, but that is SURELY not the case in this day and age? I accept the unconscious bias argument to some extent, but this...

It is being reported that the Home Secretary has given increased Section 60 powers to a number of police forces (including West Mids) where knife crime is seemingly spiralling out of control. Is it because i am a white, middle-aged, middle-class male who has never been in trouble with the law...
