    Advice needed - Leicester away parking

    I always look at that website first before going to a new ground but I thought there were kind thoughtful people on this forum who could speak from experience.

    Advice needed - Leicester away parking

    Thread title says it all. Advice on parking and time to get to the stadium would be appreciated. Sat nav says 1hr45 from where I am but how much extra time should I allow? Thanks in advance.

    Let's be positive and realistic at the same time (shocker for NSC)

    So three games lost on the bounce and a HUGE amount of negativity in NSC. I am usually a pessimist and likely to throw toys out of the pram but for a change I am going to be positive. The next three games we will get 7 points from and will continue the good form for the rest of the season...

    Brighton half marathon tomorrow

    I loved it two years ago even though it was accidentally longer than a normal half marathon distance. Cambridge Half for me this year after doing both Brighton and Cambridge within three weeks in 2012. Training has been poor and my love of biscuits and crisps hasn't helped this year.

    Dick Knights shares

    Yes it may have helped sell books but a lot of us exiles didn't know about the shares. The guy is a marketing expert so it is a bit of a gimmick but should it all go through I'll be buying a small number of shares for my son as a keepsake. I'm well aware it will mean nothing in terms of having...

    RBS Six Nations 2014 (who's your money on?)

    What a second half performance. What a game. Disappointing to lose at the last but for the neutral it must have been brilliant to watch. Unfortunately I watched it with my Welsh in laws. Lots of 'good game that' and 'unlucky England' said for my benefit when trying hard not to smirk and be...

    Comedy WARS: Father Ted vs Peep Show

    Father Ted. Although Peep Show is fantastic. Wish it had been FT v Miranda and PS v mrs browns boys though. I would rather stick hot salted pins into my eyes than watch Miranda or Mrs browns boys.

    Brad Potts - Carlisle Utd defender

    Brizzle City fan I know said they paid 100k for El Abd. The club that is, not him personally.

    Am I missing something - re the penalty?

    We were in N I block and the red seemed to be signalling for a corner but then seemed to awkwardly move the flag when Albion players were pointing to him. I thought he bottled it. The ref didn't seem to have a great view. The lino had a perfect view - we were near enough behind him.

    When was the last time an Albion home game was abandoned due to the weather/pitch?

    When was the last time an Albion home game was abandoned due to the weather/p... Wettest I have even seen a pitch. Thankfully I lived nearby at the time and so the replay, which was three very welcome points towards safety, wasn't a problem. No postponements during a game but I recall...

    Football fans sent to prison for violent brawl in Shrewsbury Town.

    Knew someone would react to my thoughts negatively and with such a wonderful way of using the English language. I'm assuming you are condoning football violence then. Disappointing that some still feel like this, I support what I thought is a wonderful family orientated club.

    Football fans sent to prison for violent brawl in Shrewsbury Town.

    They would also have to waiver the right to NHS medical care to not affect public spending. And to clean up any body parts or rubbish afterwards. Still can't believe people are so moronic as to want to have a fight before or even at a game. Saddens me because I thought football was moving in...

    Advice - best stand to take a young child to

    Thanks all. I have contacts in 1901 and have been offered tickets but didn't know if it would be acceptable. Family stand sounds, logically, the best place. Will see how my dad gets on in the New Year but he could be having round three of chemo so may not be up to it. The longer I leave it...

    Advice - best stand to take a young child to

    I always envisaged taking my boy to his first game once he was at school and old enough to appreciate the experience. The plan was to make it a family occasion. Me, my dad and my son. However, I want to make the most of the three of us being around and my dad's health isn't great so I am...

    [Albion] How much of the match day programme do you actually read?

    I don't get to many games so usually buy one, especially away games. If I had a season ticket I doubt I would though. Digital copy of tslr is great. Look forward to it appearing every month and is a much more enjoyable read.

    Best ever Brighton away support for a night game? (excluding cup final replay)

    A good night and a turn around for that season. I also remember Rushden away and also Forest away around the same time. £5 each to go to the city ground. Great stuff. My favourite has to be plymouth away on a Friday night in the mid 90's. Only 50 of us watching us win 4-0 (I think).

    Where will England finish in Group D?

    Early exit. Early removal of tacky car flags. Every cloud and all that.

    No government borrowing in 2018/19 .....

    This. This government needed to make cuts but we are in a worse state than before. Education sector constantly vilified for being poor - Tories would rid themselves of the state sector if they could. NHS - see above Social services - see above Welfare state - see above I would love to...
