I find that very hard to believe

Went to Bristol Poly in 87. Stayed afterwards around Bristol and Bath getting my football fix watching City and Rovers but the most exciting part of the game was hearing the half-time scores and how we were doing. Lovely part of the Country and explored a lot of the South West and Wales, but...

Their effect is overstated. Certainly when it comes to birds. Even the RSPB state there is no scientific proof they have an effect on the bird population.

Not as tidy as I thought I was. Got off a plane late last night and realised I left my wallet behind. I had already gone through security so no chance to get it back until (and if) they find it when they do the security sweep. All cards now cancelled. Doh!!

Safe pair of hands after Allardyce. Not good enough at this level.

I don't agree. I think some of our adoring fans are being way too sensitive. Stephens and Stockdale, why do we give our players crap at the exact time they are mulling over contracts?

Maybe you shouldn't follow his social media so closely, as it's causing you too much upset. He's on holiday, it's his kids birthday and he is from Leeds. Give him a break and give the toys back to his kid so he can through them out the pram instead of you. If he goes he goes. If he stays he...

What evidence do you have that many degrees are the present day equivalent of 5 GCSEs?

Going with a Reading fan. I shall sit back and enjoy the day without suffering any nerves or potential agony.

Heart and Head says Huddersfield as they have been top and they pushed us for most of the season, plus they are less likely to stay up. A bit awkward as will be watching the game with a Reading mate and their fans in the Stadium. At least I can enjoy the match without being stressed for the...

Hilarious!!

Too true. It emphasises how unprofessional Bridcutt and Buckley were in the same position.

That and there are no tables or even pull down trays so it's pretty much impossible to work on one and you have nowhere to place a drink apart from on the floor. I hate them.

I think you mean we are one of 65 clubs to play in the top flight. Being as we first played there 38 years ago.

A good way to look at it. Given we are the 48th club to get there, are there any clubs larger than us (stadium size, financial investment etc) who haven't played at that level?

You don't see any difference in getting a name/spelling wrong in a throw-away tweet and an engraved trophy?

Agreed. I did consider referencing a Structural Engineer, but again based on my experience there appears little room for expansion.

As it is now there is very limited scope. The East and West Roofs are supported on the arches so to increase on the sides would require a complete re-design, but you then you have the issue that the seating rakes back and you have nowhere to go behind the existing stands. You may be able to...

Does he. What does he do at the club? I'm a Chartered Quantity Surveyor. I can't see how you would get 60K seats in to that space. Oh, I previously worked on the piling works package, for the redeveloped Twickenham Stadium South Stand. So I know what foundations are involved in this sort of...

I expect he meant expansion from 22K to 30K.
