    Could it be a case of ask for 30 and second to worst case 20? Maybe in increase to 20 would work in the short term, 25 would provide a bit of future proofing so ask for 30 and you can ‘compromise’ on a lower amount and everyone wins.

    The Formula 1 Thread

    Yeah, for me I tuned out of the race for the lead years ago. Have found much more enjoyment (and pain) following the teams outside of the big 3 (Williams and McLaren mainly). Any given race week usually has some fun behind leader, and I enjoy following the tech and development side of things...

    The Formula 1 Thread

    Russell has really wound me up this season (after being a fan of his at Williams) and I agree around his general attitude. But to pin that incident on him yesterday is silly. Hamilton has all the space in the world on the left and knows he's making a risky move on the outside cutting across to...

    The Formula 1 Thread

    Surprised but not shocked Max didn’t get a penalty. That was a shocking quali and for the first time the pressure of not having a dialled in car crept through. I still expect him to be up there come lap 5 though. 11th isn’t that far back, but I have no idea if his race pace is as bad as the...

    Yeah absolutely. We moved into Northumberland Park in the mid 90s, and a possible extension was always brought up in discussions. MP's would ask the question, TFL nod and then reject it (Unless spurs paid of course). Sadly though the signalling and modernisation works to the line in the late...

    Well yes, I guess everything coming down to money is correct at the most fundamental level, but saying 'they have a tunnel already, just run trains down it' is missing an awful lot of detail that stacks this against it. That tunnel is a slow service tunnel, not rated for normal speeds, so...

    2023 Women's World Cup

    It’s been a feature this World Cup. Much better personally once you get used to it.

    Pre-Season 2023/24

    Na, he could have done better in possession, his kick out gave them the corner for the second. Otherwise been fine on that ball and made some good saved. Defence needs work (and some new players). But it's the first pre-season game in a new system, the defence is an area that Ange will really...

    Player Watch: Clément Lenglet

    Yeah, agreed. With no Europe to play in, this is the season to go for 2 class CB's and rely on the likes of Lenglet for cup games. I can see us getting VDV with Lenglet as a backup though, as old habits die hard.

    Not much better at the track either. I believe this is support and F2 equipment. Local services are stretched and infrastructure broken. It shouldn't go ahead but I can see Liberty delaying a decision until the last minute.

    Arsenal

    The mental gymnastics I am seeing Arsenal fans do to try and cope with the league potentially slipping away is both hilarious and frustrating. Apparently unless exactly 7 days before the season starts you perform the 'Title Race Entry' ritual from the top of the Emirates Stadium, all...

    Honestly, the short answer is no. In terms of adding 5k-10k seats to the ground. There are a few reasons but the main structural reason is due to the way the roof has been constructed. You have to think of it is one piece, and you can’t just say take down the roof over the south stand build a...
