I think it's understandable you've got generations now who look at the current generation of retirees with envy. I'd love the life my dad had tbh. He left school with a handful of qualifications, got a job at a local firm and worked there until he retired. Off the back of that he had a good...

Officials don't do themselves any favours do they. You can easily argue that's a yellow, but there's no way you could say it meets a 'higher standard' that they've suddenly decided to start telling us exists.

What the fuck was Walker doing there?

Was definitely reopened a lot sooner yesterday. Left my seat at the final whistle and by the time I’d walked back to the car park they were opening up again. Last few games I’ve not left as quickly and been sat in the car 15-30 minutes until the roads reopened

Can't help wondering if a lot of people are a bit too confident that changing manager can't lead to things getting worse. In some ways it reminds me of how confidently people would proclaim that relegation from the Premier League would do us go, one season winning the Championship with ease...

At one point one of our coaches tried to speak to the 4th official and he literally gave him the ‘talk to the hand’ They aren’t interested. They think they’re doing a fantastic job and everyone criticising them is wrong.

Might be a decent walk up with the weather looking much better than was forecast at the moment

Not sure you get a huge amount of money if you’re on the sick. But irrespective of that you need to look at the causes and how you can help people back into work. Most people do actually want to work and aren’t on the sick for an easy life. Can’t see that number getting much lower tbh when you...

How many 'feckless' are there living it large? I remember when my job was in jeopardy during covid I had a look how much I'd be entitled to and it was fuck all, I would have been on the streets within a month. Not sure I buy the idea that there's huge numbers of people having a nice comfortable...

don't really go away these days due to family commitments but thinking back to when I did can't really remember stewards telling people to sit where they want very often. Happened every now and then when we'd be rattling round an empty away end. I can imagine the people who sign off on event...

presume it was because sky would have had an advert earlier so they timed it for right up to kick off to get it on there

3 hours max, but the station is £5.50 for weekend parking. They don't do an evening rate so you'd need Grosvenor Road car park or the SkyDome for evening games. If they keep running these wouldn't be a bad idea to add a stop at the park and ride at the memorial.

Why should that be the case? I can't imagine any safety group or event planner going 'well its football so the rules don't apply. Just let them do what they want and cross your fingers there's no issues'.

Why does this apply to football but not any other event? I have a group of people I go to gigs with, the group is larger than the usual limit for buying tickets in one transaction so we buy our own tickets and end up sat in different parts of the venue. We meet up pre-gig and post-gig. It...

You're far from the first person I've heard say that. Just reading through this thread tells you everything you need to know, people who don't give a shit about anybody else's concerns as what they want is the priority over everything. Football must be the only event where you buy an allocated...

He's going to play after his leg has been amputated? That's a real captain!

From outside looking in he seems happy with that and a good guy to have around the squad. Don't think we're going to be in the position to have 2 genuine contenders for the no 1 spot unless we get to the Prem so on that basis I'd have no problem if Robins gives him a new contract to stay here as...

Really odd, why would you publish that now. Not even like its one old story they've dug up, they've merged two together.

I’d be looking to start the changes higher up tbh, the people in charge seem more concerned with property development than running a successful cricket club
