    Trains For Derby Match - 2nd May

    ...and it has to be London Bridge, not Victoria, as there are engineering works stopping the Victoria trains. All us London-based Seagulls and a couple of thousand Derby fans adding to the bank holiday crowd, fewer trains than there should be anyway... come and join the fun, el punal, what could...

    The official Budget day thread

    Are the state payments into the Lifetime ISA funded? I missed that bit of the announcement if so.

    The official Budget day thread

    The less you can save, the less money the government will give you. Taking whatever the cost of this is to the state, and putting it in to the state pensions pot for when the currently under 40 retire, would spread the benefit right down to the very poorest (who, as I'm sure you know if you're...

    The official Budget day thread

    That Lifetime ISA deal seems to be: The more you can afford to save, the more money the government will give you for free. Cracking deal for the low paid......

    Cracking start for the "if in doubt back Ruby Walsh" strategy :drink:

    Tips for Cheltenham?

    I know absolutely nothing about racing, so nobody should pay any attention to my (Ruby-heavy) selection today other than laughing when it fails... 1.30: Yorkhill 2.10: Roi Des Francs 2.50: Rock the Kasbah 3.30: Un De Sceaux (no value in a single bet there, but should top up any multiples...)...

    Tips for Cheltenham?

    Did you back them all in a huge each-way Super Heinz? £££££££££ :drink:

    Five clear,eight to go. Leicester City.

    Back in 2012(?), Spurs finally finished fourth and qualified for the Champions League....... until Chelsea went and won the damn thing and knocked them straight off that perch. They must have thought they'd never feel that sick again...... oops! :lolol:

    Top Gear at The Cenotaph.

    I was going to give this a thumbs-up, but then that might look like I agree that you're a dick... I know what you meant :thumbsup: :drink:

    Five clear,eight to go. Leicester City.

    How many games were left when Keegan said he'd "LOVE IT if we beat Man U" (only for Newcastle to collapse)? Obviously Ranieri isn't going to do an interview like that, but there is still plenty of time for it all to go Pete Tong. I really hope it doesn't.

    Top Gear at The Cenotaph.

    Now I'm imagining Kyle presenting some kind of hybrid show combining Top Gear and his chat show. I don't think I'd watch that one...

    Top Gear at The Cenotaph.

    That's a strange leap of logic. It was done on a busy main road, reasonably near (but not next to) the Cenotaph, reasonably near (but not next to) Downing Street, and reasonably near (but not next to) the Houses of Parliament etc. The Daily Mail described the act as "Matt LeBlanc's 'gravely...

    Top Gear at The Cenotaph.

    I must have missed something here. Where's the news about the footage being a fake?

    Top Gear at The Cenotaph.

    Correct; it earns the BBC a bloody fortune. Scrapping Top Gear would cost the BBC, and hence licence payers, a shed-load. On this case though - I'm with those that don't see the issue with a stunt 40 metres down the road that is always very busy anyway.. It wouldn't have been done...

    Sun reckons Queen wants UK to leave the EU...

    Indeed. Quote from Anthony Hilton of the Evening Standard:

    Benitez for McClaren

    Palace coming down would obviously be hiliarious - but more importantly we aren't promoted yet, and I'd fancy Newcastle to do a better job than them at bouncing straight back up. Actually, if they're sensible over the summer then I'd fancy Villa, Newcastle & Sunderland to be in a three-way...

    Murphy's been bloody brilliant recently and this is fully deserved. Just don't go and get injured......

    Championship Playoff Dates Announced

    Wouldn't (b) involve three teams finishing above us and them if they are fourth? So that's Hull, Burnley and one other - Derby if they make a recovery?
