    Article on town centre development

    It disconnects the city centre from the suburbs both physically and visually, encouraging people to go around the city centre rather than into it; totally dissuades anyone from walking into the city centre having to navigate the underpasses; prevents any kind of organic growth of the city...

    They have the right to access UK produced vaccines but nowhere does it say they have the right to receive UK produced vaccines ahead of other people who've ordered first. It's not 'first dibs' on vaccine produced in the UK or a 'fastpass' to beat queues at a theme park. It's a fallback option to...

    Article on town centre development

    I think the thing with a lot of the concrete stuff is that without maintenance and the concrete crumbling, it exposes the metal structure and it ends up costing a fortune in dealing with structural problems. Ring road falls into this category. Maintenance is now like the Forth bridge in they...

    Article on town centre development

    I agree. I think the blocks of flats/tower blocks are the most brutalist structures we built. Most of it in the city centre I'd just call modernist. There are some that could be brutalist like the car park opposite White St, but has been given a brick facade to hide the concrete structure. But...

    But if our contract is on similar terms we take precendence due to ordering first. You can have a contract saying you're getting something delivered at a certain time but if there's a backlog of orders due to production/delivery problems you ain't getting it. Most you can do is possibly sue for...

    They could call thier bluff and produce and use the Eu telling AZ to show the contract as proof they had waived the NDA.

    Or have the border running across the pitch. Commentators could then legitimately use the phrase "they can't get out of their half".

    Will they just refortify Hadrian's Wall and rename it Sturgeon's Wall. As for money I reckon they have their own sovereign currency unit, or CU for short.

    Match Thread Birmingham City away

    I think it could because as the away team our pre-match preparation will be different which could throw us off our stride. Just that autopilot of going into the dressing room is disrupted and just going into a different one will upset the rhythm slightly. This would've been a good game to wear...

    Points to survive

    Does anyone reckon that that average wage is massively inflated by those teams that have come down from the Prem and still got those level of wages on their books. The average wage there is 60k pw (which itself will be inflated by some on 150-200k+ a week) but even if you've got most of your...

    I agree it's not really brutalist, more modernist. Very 'blocky' and rectangular but the materials are very different. The RR could be considered brutalist.

    We've got a confectionery war going on for our back-up left back. The Milky Bar Kid vs the Deep-Fried Mars Bar Kid Who'll win? Well Newton is strong and tough but is a bit of a perfectionist as only the best is good enough, but Reid works and can play, but tires easily and needs a rest regularly.

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    I see Alexander has added more fuel to the independence fire by describing the independence debate as 'irrelevant'. The clown doesn't understand these kind of jokey throwaway comments actually make a difference. It's just a game to him. I reckon he genuinely doesn't get that independence is an...
