    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    I would say the detail will be important but sadly the last few years have shown that few people are bothered about detail so it will come down to if they can convince people they can deliver on what they are saying.

    Crowd trouble

    We've got Birmingham, West Brom, Stoke and Millwall coming up soon. I don't share your confidence that there is little chance of a repeat. Agreed there's not usually trouble in the stadium but then for years the away supporters are miles away as numbers have been low. What is the threshold at...

    Crowd trouble

    Don't know if I should be surprised or not that there seems to be a decent chunk of people on here who aren't bothered if there's trouble in or around the ground. For those saying 'it wasn't as bad as the 80s' that's not really a great argument for me. In the 80s football was in its arse...

    Crowd trouble

    It would be part of the conditions for getting a safety certificate wouldn't it? In any case the issue isn't really the number of police on duty its the way the stewards and police are seemingly not capable of simple crowd control that is done as a matter of routine at other clubs. Add in that...

    We can hope but Friday and Saturday were both higher than Friday and Saturday last week so I think a bit early to say we're over the worst of this wave.

    End of Woke News?

    The Times are reporting that Andrew Neil is in talks to return to the BBC. If it happens will be interesting to see in what capacity.

    Crowd trouble

    This. I don't for a minute believe our fans are significantly worse than any others, yes we have some complete morons but so does pretty much every club. The consistent failure to be able to manage basic crowd control at the stadium is a joke. Its not just at our games, there's been issues at...

    Don't think he'll be getting a suspension for that one. Nearly took the net off with the pen.

    Is there any formal criteria that they use to work out where a 'new' team slots into the pyramid?

    Walker would be starting today if he'd smiled when he scored.

    Fence in car park moved

    What we really need is a massive bridge so you come straight out of the stand and there's a bridge right in front of you. No bottlenecks, no risk of a crush down the slope, minimise fans mixing. Of course that won't be cheap so won't happen unless its forced upon Wasps for safety reasons.

    Fence in car park moved

    If they're going to insist on keeping the fence, which IMO is the wrong solution, then they need to deal with the bottleneck. Why not do similar to Wembley and have a line of stewards where the zebra crossing is. Surely safer to stop people there where there's more room and the ground is level...

    Wasn't there supposed to be an additional car park being built for this season next to the shops?

    Car Parking

    There's not anywhere free close to the ground that I know of. You could pop into one of the stores at the arena and spend £50 to get the free parking there. Other than that you're looking at the official car parks if they aren't sold out. General rule is it gets cheaper the further away you...
