    They have an immunity to facts unfortunately, so I doubt it.

    [News] The Coronavirus Good News thread

    Interesting. Thanks. Even more effective when combined with azithromycin it appears. All the usual caveats apply; small sample size, open-label, non-randomized etc, but it does look a very credible candidate for reducing the fatality rate. Given the time critical situation, I wonder if...

    Main Coronavirus / Covid-19 Discussion Thread

    Just had a letter from my daughter's school: "You may have heard the announcements that schools in Scotland and Wales will be closed from Friday. We expect a similar announcement from the Prime Minister relating to schools in England later this afternoon."

    [Albion] Amex expansion.

    Nothing there at all in the plans which only seem to cover the new upper tier in the north stand. There was no planning application for the SE corner as far as I am aware so presumably there won't be for the NE corner either.

    [Albion] Amex expansion.

    Yes, I think so. I can't imagine it will be identical, but it will certainly be similar.

    [Albion] Amex expansion.

    Given the severe physical constraints of the roof I am not sure that adding a substantial second tier or a greatly enlarged lower tier was ever a realistic proposition. FWIW I reckon it's 5 rows rather than 3, but I don't think this undermines your point. Physics and sight-lines presumably...

    [Albion] Amex expansion.

    The quote from PB was "We will also be looking to add additional hospitality space with very different lounge concepts..." So yes in terms of paying a premium for these seats, but my guess is that these seats will have a more relaxed feel to them and aimed at supporters who want to be at the...

    [Albion] Amex expansion.

    This is where they will be. I wonder if they will make one set for away supporters and one for home. This planning application only just appeared so I guess there could be another one appearing later with details of the external screen and toilets.

    I just noticed that the big screen at the back of the north stand is moving to the right about one block.

    So in summary: 1750 extra seats Outside toilets Outside big screen Second set of steps to the coach park Application for new offices (presumably next to the East Stand) to follow Another £4.31m spent by Tony Bloom. Looks the new lounge will be named "Northern Lights" The new seats in the...

    [Travel] Southern scraps off-peak Brighton to Victoria trains

    If they want to return to 8 TPH from Brighton I think they will have to return to splitting/joining at HH for Coastway services because of lack of train paths through East Croydon. Which means at least one of the Coastway trains will have to be 4 carriages, if not both. On a similar theme, I...

    [Politics] HS2 Decision

    Why do you think it will be a white elephant? Passenger numbers on the national network have been rising on average 40 million a year for around 25 years. That's a huge increase which is not really showing much sign of slowing. All the easier options to increase capacity like lengthening trains...
