Re: Help from builders please

There'll be a fair bit of muck to shift off site! There's no way you'll get planning to take a driveway all the way to the house, IMO.

Re: Trippier

Kyle Walker is a better player, comfortably. Trippier was impressive today though and I agree with the poster who commented on him looking trimmer and more athletic - his build was something that I thought would hold him back but he looked in good shape.

Re: Bringing More Asians to the Turf

We've already tried to stamp out racism from the stands and introduced Balti pies but these incentives haven't worked. What we need to do is bring in a rule which says that for every, say, 5 white British season ticket holders we must have an Asian season ticket holder.
