Thank god for Joe Root, we're increasingly a one man team as far as batting goes.

Hmmm, not quite the start I was hoping for.

I must have missed our match against Juventus :D Did that chap that had his flag nicked in Northampton ever get it back?

There's loads of these places down here and they all stay open till the early hours. Busiest time is when the pubs and clubs kick out - absolutely rammed. Not sure if that alone will be enough to make this location a good choice, can't imagine a great deal of passing trade the rest of the time.

Assuming it works fairly similarly to merchandise deals in the music industry then it will be one of two options. Either Just Sports will have paid the club and set fee and will keep all the money. Or they will be paid the club a percentage - the idea being that with less costs the club will...

Wasn't that from when they first said the away kit was changing. On the website today it says "The club will also confirm the details of the 2014/15 away shirt returns procedure on Friday."

People are less likely to trade in an old shirt so it makes sense. They can just donate them to charity or something.

red and black halves?

Green and black stripes would be the obvious one seeing as we've gone for stripes for the home kit and a bit of a retro look. Wouldn't mind a green and black version of the home kit at all. If they go yellow I'd prefer a two tone stripped kit rather than plain yellow.

They could probably get a good chunk of the cost (believe it costs the council around £400K) through sponsorship. With the number of people who turn up that has to be worth a few quid.

We're going to be playing in the new away kit which is being unveiled at 6pm on Friday.

Heard they were wanting to clamp down this year as so many people are using concessions they aren't entitled to.

The modern version of the ladies side has been around since 1991. Originally I believe there was little connection other than in name. Think it was sometime around 2000 that they started working together more, was around the time the ladies team expanded their youth system. No idea how close...

If they win all they win is the right to appeal. Its the appeal itself that they would need to win. If they somehow managed to do that then the only think I can realistically see them being able to do is go after CCC for compensation.

Well either they will win, which would seem unlikely with their track record, which will just mean more court action to follow or they'll lose which will mean the launch of JR2 and more court action. Don't think we'll get much new information, will probably just be a yes or no to the appeal...

There were rumours he had invested in the club himself. That would be a reason to stick around. Can't see why else he would stay.

And of course if you are avoiding an area because you don't feel safe there you won't be assaulted or robbed there. It's never a great advert for the city when I bring touring bands to the Kasbah and the first thing they get told is not to go out of the building as they'll get mugged. One band...

I'm the opposite, couldn't wait to get away and as soon as I was 18 and out of school I was off. The longer I've been away the more the desire to return to the city has grown. Must be a case of absence makes the heart grow fonder!

Thats it isn't it Tony, its not really a bailout when you're doing it to make money yourself. Look at Greece's debt and compare that with what they taxpayer had to hand over to save the banks. Now the banks won't budge on Greece's debt.

Absolutely right. The thing I find in England, which I've not found in other countries, is an attitude of 'its like this everywhere' and accepting the decline rather than trying to do something about it.
