This team doesn't need to rely on anyone else to get promoted, from what I've seen we just need to keep our nerve (and our better players!) and we'll be in the mix at the end of the season - imho.

Christ, it's hard to know where to start with all this. For what it's worth I think SISU substantially overplayed their hand in the initial negotiations to purchase a share in ACL, and if they did go to YB behind the back of the other parties then I can understand why the deal unravelled. In...

I think that second sentence needs either a comma or hyphen, it can be read more than one way. :)

Sorry to piss on your chips too, but what access to revenue are Wasps going to give us exactly? This will be a hugely limiting factor under FFP, and more so in the Championship if we should ever get there. Almost twenty years ago we gambled the club's future on building a huge, flash stadium...

I understand that's what you'd like to believe, but posting a pithy comment doesn't make it so. For me, at the Ricoh now, we are little more than nothing - a half-empty ground with a London rugby team's logos all over it. I'd settle for something less grand that felt like it belonged to us.

Can I just challenge this Otis, politely. We got into this awful place by building a stadium that was far, far bigger than our needs - surely we don't want to risk our future on another gamble. At the moment we're in League 1, and I see no guarantee that in two years we'll be in the...

I'm just going to throw out a few random thoughts here, after churning through all of this. 1) Regardless of how good a deal we get with Wasps, it won't give us sufficient access to any other revenue streams at the stadium. Being tenants at Wasps is almost by definition self-limiting - FFP in...

Good photo mate, but blimey, you're a lot taller than I realised. :)

You could well be right mate, I've not been past there in ages in truth.

Old Courtaulds site, Old Church Road? I'm not sure if there's something on it now, but I think it's big enough. I have serious doubts about the veracity of the idea though, as others have said, why would the FL need to get involved if it's within the city?

Exactly. Zombies - slow, clumsy, not that bright. The centre-halves of the horror genre (vampires being the prima-donna "don't mess with my hair, no, no, please not the face" strikers.). So, with this in mind shall we set up camp: a) In the middle of a huge giant field, with great visibility...

I'll second Justified, love it. Anything based on Elmore Leonard's writing is usually pretty solid, imho. The Shield, the first series, was breathtaking at the time - first example I can remember of a genuinely bad cop being the 'hero'. Lost track of it though, so don't know how well it...

So, start at 9:00am... then run 5km. At my usual pace, I should just about be done before dark, though the days are getting shorter. I'll give it a go. :)

Another one here for Scholars. I used to end up there regularly after drinking all day for home games. Despite being slightly the worse for wear the guys on the door were always great with me, including the boss. Every now and then I'd get in free too. I use the Nursery and the Hearsall...

It doesn't matter to me that Northampton fans didn't rise up against our ground share with them. That's history and the blame for it doesn't lie with them. I don't want any club to go under because of the crap actions of their owners.

Not having a dig at Cole here, WM, but trust me on this - these fellas don't pay tax at the same rate that the likes of me and you pay tax. ;)

Not to me ferret, but then I am a bit slow.

Bugger me, it's on the radio and everything. I thought this was a wind up. Blimey. :)

He was a ref as well - literally, who's the Bastard in the black. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Segar_Bastard I went to school with one of his distant relations, Segar Megadrive. Ouch.

Indeed - isn't that something like "What do you love about sport?" or "Which sports do you love?". There'll be someone hereabouts who'll have better French than me. Certainly nowt to do with food, as far as I can tell. What's French for 'pies' anyway? :)
