    If they can't get land for 10,000 jobs then they won't get it for a stadium.

    I didn't know that - and it is a very importnat distinction re planning decisions. So not splitting hairs at all

    Waggott - We Have Emerged Stronger From January Than When We Entered it

    I would say it worse when you consider the loss of experienced players. Having said that, once we lost Callum to injury and Clarke, we we pretty poor post Christams last season (Notts County and Peterborough away stick in my mind still). So over the last 12 months we are certainly no stronger -...

    If they can't get land for 10,000 jobs then they won't get it for a stadium.

    Problem with politics and environmental stuff is that the policital cycle turns every 5 years or so, whereras my world involves planning for decades in the future. Having said that, I have met some very forward thinking types (including ministers), but they understandably end up towing the party...

    If they can't get land for 10,000 jobs then they won't get it for a stadium.

    I remember this bit from Blue Peter (see earlier post) - I started laughing (big sis had a go at me which encourged me more). Does that make me a bad person? :o

    Dear Sisu

    Quite like the idea of this - opportunity to vent spleen, mirth, titilation and maybe even "out" RFC and Grendel (who I imagine may look something like Crusty the Clown)

    If they can't get land for 10,000 jobs then they won't get it for a stadium.

    Pickles (the dog) came to a rather unfortunate end/ Apparently the owners daughter ran one way past a lampost, with Pickles going the other side - a lead was attached between the two (the good old days of responsible dog ownership).... I'm sure you can guess the outcome. (I am not always this...

    If they can't get land for 10,000 jobs then they won't get it for a stadium.

    All true as stated - but this Govt has been pushing very strongly to reconsider designated green belt and greenspace land, hence the change in the planning laws and the watering down of environmental guidelines. It may well be that there is good cause to rebuff these plans, but I remain...

    If they can't get land for 10,000 jobs then they won't get it for a stadium.

    Indeed - there is an awful lot of power in the shires. As someone who works in the environmental sector (environmental planner) I see this nonsense all the time. It's all about votes in election year - this Govt cares fuck all for the environment. If anything they ave dismantled a lot of the...

    Why Did The Council Sell To Wasps?

    Where did you get a copy of the Council minutes from? Did you hack in?

    Why Did The Council Sell To Wasps?

    Sisu are relevant to this - they were putting the financial pressure on CCC. Who then found a buyer (or Wasps found them, who knows), Sisu didn't want the stadium as they plan to build their own etc.... And the ones that suffer are CCFC fans and (probably) CRFC fans. It's all about the money...

    Simply The Worst

    Thought Cook was ok to be honest - couldn't run but was able to pass to one of his own players on occasions. Was a pretty poor side he was in I think.
