Re: Marseille airport car hire
If you book from the UK you may get unlimited mileage, more often than not in France you'll get 200km per day.

Re: ALK Capital or Farnell/Elkashashy takeover

Re: ARTICLE: These types of games are massive for us
You'd have to agree. Zaroury hasn't had a look in over the last few games but he took his chance last night by the looks of it. Without these sorts of games that opportunity just isn't there. Hopefully we'll avoid the top 8 in the next round and the opportunities for the fringe players can continue.
