Mr Marinakis, I was loved by the fans. I know I haven’t had a sniff of job elsewhere but I still live in the area

I was highly recommended Belleville out in the 20th but given its our first time probably a touch too far from central Paris. It's my first time ever. I am interested to see how it comes to the other big European hitters. Amsterdam disappointed greatly (Rijksmuseum aside) - prefer Rotterdam. Berlin I loved this summer and probably went to the top of my list within the big cities of Europe.

Oxford (A) | Sat 13-Sept | 12:30 KO | Sky

Nelson wasn't/isn't on the England Under 21s bench today so probably not 100% fit. -
You should be good in both Stadt I'd think. Some pubs will have the SKY Coverage. I am looking forward to hunting down a bar in Rhodes for the Cov game. Suspect an arrest Maguire style when the only other punter is some JLR worker from Kenilworth.

You can go as late as the 1990 World Cup and England fans are carrying Union Jack.

Big Dipper - If you want something really challenging. Anglesey - For a challenge and the views. Bournemouth - If you want to really smash a PB. -

I think altering it centres around a bridge on Watermead which the local council there have had closed for about two months and done **** all about. -
Funny question that as it's been a long running drama I'll pre qualify it by saying that my partner can't have dairy to eat, so having vegan or vegetarian restaurants/bakeries et al nearby is useful. So if we are out all day and she struggles to find anything she can eat with confidence, we will wait out - so nearby is good for brekkie and late dinner. We were originally booked in Saint Germain des Pres (6th) as I read it was very traditionally Parisian but safe, if slightly taken over by instagrammers. As I started to plot vegan eateries, it was clear there was not much around the 6th as the traditionalism was more French cuisine restaurants. So we have ended up in 11th nearby Rue Oberkampf nearby Bataclan. Lots of food and bars around there I'd like to try and thankfully some completely vegan options. Generally speaking, we will spend a night in 5th/6th and another day head towards Pigalle but probably early evening after doing Montmartre, so we avoid it when it gets chaotic.

England Internationals - Andorra and Serbia

It's a major increasing pattern in the sport at the moment. So England are late to the party. -
England Internationals - Andorra and Serbia
CosbehFox replied to Leicesterpool's topic in General Football and Sport
Was thinking this weekend how the constant expansion of tournament football has completely bored qualification. In my childhood, we'd have to play one major team every qualification campaign with another tricky underdog as well. I don't think FIFA/UEFA realise that this constant milking of the sport is one of the main causes so many are bored with it. If England **** this up over Serbia, they still have a likely playoff place via the Nations League. The South American qualifiers have 6 teams and another qualifying for a play-off. Literally seven out of 10 teams. The qualifiers in their format have zero tension to them. -

Golden rules of Leicester Half are:- - Don't go too fast cos it's a downhill start. It's at least half of the run which is on flat and you'll get a decent first half split from it. Watermead Park you can zip around too. - The first real test I believe is the hills coming out of Birstall and you are at mile 8 by that point. - The finish is a painful climb up New Walk. So be prepared and try to leave some in the tank (easier said than done but you can add a good 20-30 seconds to your final K time on it). Just know that once you've got that out of the way it's done. I'd say in terms of pure time, it's the best of the East Mids cities to do but could do with a couple of more landmarks on the route to make it truly enjoyable. -

Same at all the big runs with waves to be honest. Cambridge is like it too. Leicester suffers badly with a load of unprepared and undercooked runners decided to go out with the pace setters and then you see them struggling at the start of Melton Road. -
Went to Worcester 1 Kettering 1. Decent game albeit both would get giddy anywhere near the 18 yard box. The Sixways is obviously a bit weird but I do think it's the best of a situation for Worcester. The crowd of 1112 says it's a sensible decision. However it's bit of an atmosphere void. Be interested to see if they pick up form and the crowds increase if that changes. Obviously as well everything is still Worcester Warriors branding.

As others have said, they are aware of what needs to change on the away priority system and the suggested new system is spot on but it's just idled away time wise. Part of me wonders if they are being naive and waiting for any promotion - as the PL is probably two years away from digital away ticketing.

Rhodes - Next Tuesday for ten days. Mechelen, Belgium - Two nights in October Bari/Puglia - Three nights in November Paris - Four nights in December All strategically placed so I don't stress with work.

Finally watched the first series with Flintoff and the kids with cricket. It's brilliant isn't it? A total remedy to the shite in this country at the moment.

Use Queen Elizabeth II Sixth Form College car park - it's for free, five to ten minute walk to the start. -

I also struggled today running 18k. Maybe the amount of hills after doing Beacon yesterday. But I was in a right struggle. Think the heat and humidity caught a few out today. Time for holiday. Properly max out at 10k in the heat of Rhodes and then try to add some speed ready for Leics Half as it gets cooler here. My major target is start of next year where I am hoping the results of consistency start to play out.
