    Think we just about deserved that. Just needed to win, but it was two teams devoid of confidence.

    Rule changes you’d like to see next season

    A serious one from me..... I've said similar before somewhere on this forum, but the whole ethos of punishing fouls/cheating is totally arse-about-face and needs turning on its head... Professional fouls should be a straight red card, and by "professional" i mean any player deliberately...

    I'd say its more likely the latter. Everybody has got their own opinions, but my view is all this gait-analysis is a bit of a waste (i await a flurry of posts in disagreement)

    Club night at Godiva last night. Our group sees a shift in training now, moving away from the track-biased short reps, and winter training begins in earnest, building up the endurance for the tough cross-country season. Last night was a 25 minute continuous effort up and down the shallow hill...

    Wasps downward spiral...

    As i mentioned above, from seeing the pictures/videos i saw, it isn't far off. Still awful though.

    I was in action in the Black Mountains/Brecon Beacons yesterday, for the final race in this year's British Fell Champs. 30th (15th v40). Likely to be the highest i ever finish in a major champs race... i benefitted from knowing the course very well from previous years, and a lower turnout than...

    Wasps downward spiral...

    To be honest... i saw a clip on facebook showing both the side stands, and my amateur opinion was 6-8000, but it was a very quick video. I could be wrong, It was considerably emptier than we were getting in League 2, what was that, about 10000...?

    Well done Rich, good to see you... I must admit you caught me on the hop a bit... after you disappeared round the arches, i wondered how you had managed to recognise me!

    Raced in the Stretton Skyline Fell Race last sunday... a 19mile loop of the Skyline surrounding Church Stretton in the Long Mynd in Shropshire.. one of my main target races for the year.... the target being to go sub 3-hrs for the first time ever... Despite coming 8th overall and 1st v40, i...

    Have we got the worst owners in this league?

    So we didn't invest in new players, but kept our best three. It isn't the greatest transfer window of all-time, but its not an unmitigated disaster.

    Have we got the worst owners in this league?

    If people had been offered to keep all of our "big three" and sell Hyam over the transfer window, 95% of City fans would have snapped your hand off. A shit start to the season doesn't alter that fact.

    I've had Hoka before, both road and trail shoes. My personal view is that while yes they are incredibly cushioned, they are not so much more comfortable then say a standard pair of Nike Pegasus. If money is no barrier then it may well be worth giving them a try to see how you get on. If i...

    Having done a couple of ultras which start early morning, i can comiserate. When you've been running a few hours already, start feeling the first strains of severe tiredness, look at your watch and its still not even 7am, and realise you've still got 12hrs+ to go....!!!

    CBS issues

    Precisely. I know we have a lot of expert groundsmen, project mangers and wedding-planners on here (not to mention master football tacticians, politicians and scientists), but the attempts to throw blame around are just speculation at best.

    CBS issues

    Whenever a statement comes out (regardless of whether it is from Wasps/CCFC/SISU/EFL) saying "parties are in discussion/working on something", with no substance, it is usually condemned as being a "waste of time" and "why don't they just concentrate on sorting things out and tell us when they've...
