Re: New food/drink rules at the Turf

What’s happened to the chaps who were selling coffee from their modern vans in the ground car park near the catering caravan. They haven’t been there for two weeks now. It’s a shame if they’ve been forced off, really good quality coffee unlike the rubbish (imo) sold inside the concourse. My plan wa...

Based on the defence I presume? Unfortunately it's any 4 from 5/6 at the moment and all look iffy. Apart from that I'd go with the forward choices.

I'd have Berge for Brownhill as he's shown when in AM that he can make a difference..as at Luton and Forest.
