People implying that you must be crazy to go in there and putting laughing emojis on their posts. There is a reason. Don't complain when you can't afford to renew.

I think you're having a war with yourself here, mate. It's all in your head.

I'm sorry but I must be far more stupid than some of the clever s*d's on this forum for not having as much disposable income as them.

Blimey. That's quite an outburst when not a single person on this thread has implied any such thing.

Great for reminiscing. On a cold wet day, large parts of the lower tier are almost like being on the old Bee Hole End, but sat down, not standing up.

Whalley Warm & Dry. They sorted out a problem my sister had with one of her heel arches. They spent ages measuring her feet and making sure the boots were right. Have a look at their reviews. People travel long distances to go there.

To be fair to VK, he did apologise and acknowledge he was wrong in more than one press conference.

We don't do 'fair' on here, even when it's one of our own.

Broad Street Plaza in Halifax shows what can be done. Before the site was redeveloped, it was a rundown Netto that looked more like a prison than a supermarket. Granted, the site is much bigger, but something along the lines of the Broad Street Plaza, but on a much smaller scale, would transform the...

Not many. I've been in it occasionally and it's like a miniature game of tetras. That area was mainly used as access for deliveries, all the kitchen stores were down there. Accessed via a lift from the kitchen. I was a chef there in 1988. Thanks for that. Yeah, I thought it might be for servicing t...

As much as I hate the fact it’s us, I’m glad that someone who will have spent his career at City on the right side of decisions can now see what it’s like to be at a small club and getting nothing. Well I'm not. At the end of the day, nothing whatsoever will change. I also don't get why one of our ...

You do know that there already is underground parking beneath the Keirby?

No I didn't, but thanks for that. I thought it was for servicing. I didn't realise it was also an underground car park. How many cars would you say it could park?

Haha fair enough. Shite that will never happen is 90% of the content this board mind........

Oh, I agree, and it's why I avoid those threads.

Clovius Boofus

Bit of creative thinking is needed. Take about 20 spaces worth, build a few tiers of cheap car park, return the spaces back to the shopping centre after construction, and you have 80 or so spaces across 4 or 5 decks of car park. I've said my bit. I'm not going to waste my time any further by quibbl...

Could easily dig out more underground parking. They could also get a deal to park on a portion of the old Sainsburys site There's not enough space to create the ramp length and gradient for basement parking, and even if there was, it would be way too expensive and wouldn't be cost-effective - centr...

Clovius Boofus

Although not a bad idea, i think the main problem there would be parking. This is why it's a none-starter. Same with the Sparrow. If the Sparrow had a large safe and secure car park, it would have been refurbished and still being run as a hotel. It's a lovely building, but I dread what's going to h...

A great man. I am a small c conservative yet respected him greatly and agreed with many of his suggestions. RIP.

Just think, though. Having a functioning roundabout, that allowed the traffic to flow freely, would be a great Levelling Up project for the area. It could even have some mature trees in the middle to add to the aesthetics.

Sunny day today but I’ve just spotted some pesky items in the sky.

What are they up to?

Scary, isn't it. Last week I saw one when I was walking along the coast near Cleveleys, and it turned me into a newt.

Before it was Carpe Diem, it was called Club Expo

A few of us to pile in there after catching the last bus back from Manchester. The music wasn't too shabby. A bit of Grunge, Punk and other stuff like Joy Division through to Massive Attack.

Clovius Boofus

Upstairs above the Zoo in Nelson was good for a while if you were into post-punk alternative stuff. Trax wasn't too bad either on a Saturday night, if, like me, you wanted a late night beer without having to endure the usual nightclub disco dross.

If they can't buy it, surely the council have the power to make the owner/s at least externally renovate and make it smarter?

If not, then the law requires changing.

Sounds like we're stuck with the eyesore. Great innit.

Keane is another one who is only happy when it rains. I once read about his bedroom when he first went to Forest - he paint it black. At the end of the day, when we lose everybody hurts, so it's only right that we all have a celebration when we win.

Clovius Boofus

How dare he! I know. Celebrating a win is an outright public display of positivity, and it really shouldn't be allowed. Also, while he was busy celebrating, did he give a thought to how his action might upset the negative nannies? No, he damn well didn't. Such irresponsible behaviour has no place a...

Sorry to hear about your fall. You'll probably feel a bit more battered and swollen tomorrow morning, so make sure you have some ice or an ice pack in the freezer.

I'm beginning to wonder whether some people on here have ever said anything positive in their entire life.

I don't know anyone who has not renewed. In the grand scheme of things in not really expensive for what you get out of it. 23 days/half days out. Might even win a few It's a great effort, and good to see that so many are renewing. Reading this forum, you'd think we'd be lucky to get more than 12k r...

By the way, around four years ago, I began taking the recommended daily amount of vitamin D. Around 18 months later, I started getting spots and rashes flaring up on my face. I put this down to all sorts of things, like washing powder, soap, sunscreen, shaving foam, hand gel and certain foodstuffs. ...

Most supplements are actually useless, even though they say.. e.g. (400% of recommended dose per day) etc, the body doesn't recognize them as such...they can't be metabolized & the liver is left with the job of removing them, there's zero benefit. It's a hugely profitable industry & they can basica...

It wouldn't die but it would mean the players would earn less money for kicking a ball around grass. Even with the TV money, many clubs have massive debts, and they will still have to be serviced, regardless of what their players earn. Without TV money, they would go under. Anyway, I know I've just...

Clovius Boofus

Pointless arguing about TV money. It was always a Faustian pact, and it's not going to go away. It will always be here in one form or another.

Certainly more Curlews round here ... we often see them when we go for a walk up on LP moor and driving to Skipton.

This is good to hear. They may have had a decent breeding season last year. Let's hope it continues.

ALP, have you been noticing more curlews this year? I'm not sure whether I've been lucky, or if they are doing a little better, because I've heard more calling than last year while out on my local patch. I hope so, because they are on the Red List. Sadly fewer lapwings, though, as per.

It’s about time this was stopped. Players should pay their own agents out of their massive salaries and clubs should not be permitted to be affiliated with any of the parasites It wouldn't make any difference.

I’m not so sure that’s still the case. My nephew is 15 and has taken up reffing for the money.

I can see it from the clubs point of view to make these things a bit more professional and upmarket.

I'll eat my hat if we're not at least in the playoffs. Anyhow, if I'm wrong, and we are floundering and outside of the top six come November, then VK will have to go, and I might need a new hat.
