  1. It was a very exciting game with some great tries scored. We were top of the league for half an hour. Now collapsed to seventh.
  2. Bed in? 150 years apiece and they're still bedding in?
  3. That's a fair point. But you can only sell it once. Land might be your Achiles heel. A club that rents its stadium can go bust and start a new company. A club that owns property can't do that so easily.
  4. No, just a mixture of distant memory and publicly available information off tinterweb.
  5. People in York and Brighton complaining about house prices. If you can't live within your means, don't blame others.
  6. If Sheffield win Superleague in five years' time it won't be down to my involvement. Ambition suggests a personal achievement. Is that how you see Leigh's Cup win last year? Couldn't have been done without Harry? Chances rare as hen's teeth? What does than even mean?
  7. No. My mortgage was definitely more than my alcohol bill. But - hey - don't let facts get in the way of your envy.
  8. No, you can hire one, but that's likely not the only issue. Just the most visible one.
  9. Yeah - the warm up area was shocking. I don't blame the Hurricanes for that. It must be galling to be playing on what is effectively a park pitch in the shadow of what looks to be - from the outside - a very well appointed stadium.
  10. Mercia implies the specific geographic area of the former Kingdom of Mercia.
  11. Jeez - the flat-cap Tories. Sell off the assets to fund losses/tax cuts. It's like Thatcher never went away. Did Rovers not get that land given to them by CISWO? I mis-remember. I saw the outline plans. Access looks shocking for the number of houses planned.
  12. Selling shares seems to be its main money-spinner.
  13. To be honest, it's no surprise to me that people who have been acquiring wealth longest are the most wealthy. Young folk need to get their heads around it.
  14. In 2021 and 2022 they lost over £300,000. That's in each year. I shudder to think what they lost in 2023 but no doubt we'll find out in a few months' time.
  15. Two kilos - what are these season tickets made of ?
  16. Bower does actually specifically say NCL. Could be an error on his part, obviously.
  17. A stand for 200 folk is definitely the point where most NCL clubs would stumble. Are these applicants definitely NCL? Are there any NCL clubs outside the "traditional areas"? Can't think of any, though I may have missed one.
  18. Yeah - but you live in leafy York. Probably your pensioner mates do too.
