I didn't say Donny was in the East Midlanss, I said you can live in the East Midlands and be pretty near to Doncaster which is true as it's not far at all from Nottinghamshire. That's what I was trying to say anyway.

no that's just Lincolnshire which forms part of the East Midlands.

I didn't like it when Sol was giving off about how he'd have had more of an England career if he was white. So far as I can see, the England camp have always picked on ability in modern times, as the careers of the likes of Paul Ince, Rio Ferdinand and others has shown. Race was no barrier to...

I think a Leicestershire fans group would be a good idea; as we can see above there would be a decent concentration of fans who could meet somewhere sufficiently convenient for all. It sounds like it was worked well after Juggy started it on his patch, and obviously the London group has been...

I bet anyone a pint that we will be playing at the Ricoh again next season. That is all. PM me if you want to take the bet.

No worries; as well as being a mapping pro, for me geography and county boundaries in particular are a hobby. So I count as a mapping wanker AND a geography geek :happy: As such, I find it infuriating that one of the things in the Wiki table above is "distance from London", as if that has any...

Skegness is - it is in Lincolnshire, an East Midlands county. From Wikipedia: Kings Lynn isn't in the East Midlands, it's in East Anglia, but read what I said: "just outside Kings Lynn"..the town is less than 10 miles from the Lincolnshire border and thus the boundaries of the East...

Lincoln. The East Midlands is a very big area though, you can be in Hinckley not far from the Ricoh, or you could be in Skegness, or just outside Kings Lynn, Doncaster or over the bridge from Hull or anywheea in between. This makes it hard to have a single focal point for such a group...

To be fair, so I do sometimes. I for one now generally avoid intervening on things like the EU or Sisu/Wasps/council, as nobody is persuading anyone else and people just go on there to vent their views whilst not being receptive to anyone else's view - it just descends into endless argument and...

Welcome to Sky Blues Talk.... I particularly enjoyed the multi page thread that evolved into a row about county borders and what constitutes 'the north', 'the West Midlands' and so on. It got heated only because people were used to carrying on like that on here. Then again you look on the...

Except that nobody mentioned it at the time...or until this week. OK.....

It wouldn't surprise me if, in the future, we start to see a trend where buying clubs like Man U start to disguise themselves when trying to buy players. A good illustration of this is when they signed Martial - the selling company had previously agreed to sell him to Spurs not long before, for...

More than anything else, I can't understand why, with all their resources, they've so suddenly turned from the big dogs into also-rans. Can't all be due to Fergie magic and David Gill retiring.

I prefer them over the other 'big 6' sides for sure, but it's a bit like cricket lacking something now the West Indies are not as good any more, means the whole spectacle is a bit lacking.

Care to back that up?

That name sounds like it ought to be the name of someone who has broken out of Alcatraz.

Ah, maybe it's not over after all.....spoke too soon

Whoa, is that it? Is it all over????

OK great, I'll start. Not me personally, but I once worked in a factory making car airbags and we suddenly became aware that there was a 'phantom shitter' on the loose amongst the workforce. Fresh poos would turn up in unexpected places e.g. next to one of the presses, under a lathe, and so on...
