Haha second this place.

The U20 or 65+ will have a tick next to it if its a concession.

Yeh that's why its really frustrating when they sell blocks individually. I believe that sometimes thats at the request of the home club but still annoying. We know we'll sell them all so just stick them all on sale on the first day.

A woman was spat on at Brentford away for holding a "Rodgers Out" banner. Still can't get my head round that.

This was a great day by the way, highly recommend to anyone interested in running a half. Nice flat route and bits through the countryside/small village. Also randomly Ian Stringer was the event host. He did a really good job to be fair.

Anyone read this. The Three Body Problem by Cixin Liu? Part of a trilogy. It's (Hard) Sci-fi and not normally the genre I tend to go for, but I've just read this and the 2nd in the trilogy and they blew my mind. An amazing amount of detail and science theory but all wrapped into a really exciting plot. Netflix have just bought the rights so hoping they don't ruin it, although don't have much hope.

Read this last year. Incredibly bleak and tough read and it doesn't really let up, but very well written. Can't say I enjoyed reading it but a brilliant book.

We don't have the booing numbers to make the the top 5. But we are pretty consistent with it. For as long as I can remember, if we don't win there is very often a small smattering of boos.

Unfortunately there is no chance we have big money to play with in the transfer market. We have already sold off our most valuable assets, and for a cut price because of relegation. We've seen already how tight things are regardless of PL TV money. Equally, I fear we will struggle to compete at the the top end of the Prem with the modest funds/strong scouting approach because we just don't have the vision required from the top. We only have Enzo. The only vague hope I have is that bringing Enzo in was a calculated decision to choose that style of play/approach/identity to the footballing side of things as a club in general. That would mean using that style throughout our age groups, targeting players to fit that style and if Enzo were to go, only bringing in a replacement that also bought into it. But given the other managers we were linked with, I highly doubt it.

I'm doing the Leicestershire Half for the first time in a few weeks, has anyone run it before? I did the Brum half last year and its a pretty big event with DJs and entertainment a lot of the way around and people line the streets with signs and jelly babies etc. It looks like the Leicestershire half is a bit more low key, as the majority of it is run on the old Airfield. I had a few questions for anyone that's run it or been to it: Are there hydration stations throughout? Is there space for family to hang out whilst you're running and is there refreshments etc to keep them going/warm? Am I right thinking there's little going on when running the route and so earphones is a good idea? Any other tips/insight welcome Cheers

A rather random one, but heading to Paris to watch Mos Def perform only MF DOOM tracks. Has the potential to be amazing, can't wait.
