Or they were on their phone in the queue trying. One person, both bases covered.

That's because it is. 1962 and Grade II listed. Festival of Britain. Modernist with a lot of glass, hence why it looks quite bland, blocky and utilitarian. Basically they just updated around the existing structure.

It's one where I feel that it affected play and so should be penalised but not by a penalty. If they were given as indirect free kicks I'd be fine with things like that being given.

Fair enough. I take the latter. Think how special that one month would be though having not qualified for a while and then winning the tournament. Be greater than ultimately being let down every couple of years.

It is irrelevant. They're entitled to do it and are not breaking any laws. Says a lot about the type of person they are though. Not that it relates to Rishi because we've no idea if he is or isn't claiming for it (though it would have to be under PR expenses (which IMO is a bullshit (sorry)...

Of course not. Though I know of plenty of people without kids who still go in the summer because it's kind of ingrained that that's when we go on holiday. There could be an argument made for changing the school year to a big winter break rather than summer, as a lot of it is based on redundant...

But that could keep us going through the winter months. Twitter feed revealing new signings like Christmas presents. New year - new squad as transfer window opens. I admit I am biased because I hate the cold with a passion and don't find winter games much fun. With short days if feels like the...

I would. For winning them. And I bet you would too. I bet the worst part of that month was when we lost the final. Imagine if it'd had culminated in actually winning the trophy instead. Why was it an incredible month? Would it have been so incredible had we limped out in the group stage? Why...

So what if we'd be screaming for the managers head and demanding changes? Maybe it's what would be needed. If you qualify for every tournament and then do nothing you just end up doing the same thing again and again and excusing the lack of trophies because at least we qualified. I don't know...

Whataboutery again, Uruguay has nothing to do with this. Italy won the Euros a year ago. Let's say we don't win the World Cup. Would you prefer to be Italy who won the Euros and didn't win the World Cup or England who didn't win either the Euro's or the World Cup?

Bur we didn't win a league title because the season was curtailed before it finished...

So? We got the fan experience of being at the actual tournament. Know which I'd prefer. Give how we utterly failed at qualifying in the 70's do you think that 'fan experience' was good? Rather than losing to the likes of Brazil and Argentina in the finals we could lose to Poland in qualifying...

That's the most tenuous attempt you've made to be right yet. A criteria for qualifying for the tournament was being the current holders. So according to the rules we qualified. As the top teams enter the FA Cup in the 1st/3rd rounds, I assume that as they've not had to do the qualifying or...

I think it's saying wouldn't it have been nicer to have been European and World Champions in the recent past and missed out on getting to the tournament this time. If we end up not winning it (and we don't tend to do well when a tournament is outside Europe) then it's just another let down and...

Sounds great! Now if I can just be bothered with the couple of hours journey to the sea and back...

I've always felt the main point of that was to connect BHX to London so it could work as extra airport capacity for the capital. The northern legs were to convince the north is was for their benefit and get it through. One already gone, I expect the other to follow. At the time I said the £35bn...

Definitely looks better and like a lot of stuff they've done, especially the entrance from near the bridge. I like the frontage of the old station but wasn't much of a fan of it overall. New build looks fine but the two together look a bit odd. Wish they'd integrated the main bus/train stations...

Well, he thinks he did. He held his card up against the pump nozzle. That's how it works isn't it...?

Argument maybe that we need to treat it more like a reserve team and use it to both get first teamers fit and help the youngsters learn?

Shush! You'll wake up Grendel.
