FSH is the key, btw. No fsh, walk away, no matter how shiny, imho. Check the MOT history too, that can uncover dubious mileage and other possible issues - you can do that free online at the gov.uk website..

Fwiw my old V70 had 250,000 miles when I sold it, and ran on for another 30,000 at least. I also ran a BMW 528i for well over 250,000 miles and I've got another one now which is a nipper at 150k. These were all petrol btw. I've gone off diesels a bit, even though they are generally better...

I've got the solution. Houchen's Head, a.k.a....

Could be mate, I honestly couldn't be certain. Fwiw, my experience tends to be more like yours, in that more people tend to get away with it than are caught for it. The only observation I'd make is that in this case the Judge seems to have made his decision on the basis that the Cov lads...

I'm sorry to hear what happened to you mate, genuinely, but I wouldn't assume that anyone involved here got sent down for just pushing someone over who was threatening them with a bottle....

If he alone or as part a group used or threatened violence against another individual or group, then that might happen. That's pretty common in these situations when you think about it. With all due respect though, the court balances the evidence presented so it's not just down to the police...

I wouldn't want to comment on the specifics, because I don't know them, but the law says this iirc... You're allowed to use reasonable force to defend yourself or those around you (or as I understand it to detain someone who has committed an offence). However, you're not allowed to chase...

Thanks, I'm aware of the details. It might not be a 'breach' of the regulations, but it's not trivial either if it costs you £20k. It's also a bit embarassing if only a year or two ago your owner was quoted as saying something like... "We are strong supporters of the salary cap and believe...

Yep, reminds me of when we were offered an extension to 250 years for £1 million. Oh no, wait, I'm thinking of that rugby club from London, sorry.

I wouldn't want you doing my accounts. A 40k audit error leading to a 20k penalty would be considered very poor practice by any business that I know or have worked in, especially when it's combined with the bond 'oversight'. Put it this way, I work in a business that turns over an awful lot...

Time to join the Tom Tom Club, perhaps...

Interesting, because the coverage I've seen suggests that Cipriani choosing not to commit to Wasps is a bit of a story in rugby circles. The salary cap thing just shows to me that (like the Bonds) Wasps aren't entirely capable of keeping their administration straight. Not entirely reassuring...

Where's your evidence for it being a myth? I can show you a lot of proof that changing every time we have a bad run isn't working for us.

Maybe the problem is the endless lack of stability. The owners don't help but I'd like to see someone given a few years to build something, rather than the continual managerial revolving door.

If you go through as many managers as we have, and you're still struggling, then clearly the issue isn't with the manager. How about, just for once, we give someone a few years to build something before panicking?

We are what we've always been, consistently inconsistent. Losing Doyle was a big blow, but I still think there's enough in this team to win a few more games yet. As for Robins, he's neither world class nor a complete numpty and I don't see that continually cycling through managers has done...

Is he at Blackburn?

... since I rock n' rolled... Sorry, couldn't resist. Zep fans of a certain age will get it. But yes, brilliant if we can draw the kids in. Some chants are more appropriate than others mind.. "My old man, said be a Villa fan, I said..." :)

If you're not sure whether they're guilty or not, ask Otis. :)
