Les Tonks Sidestep

We're allegedly about to announce Pickersgill....

I should have added that the much chuntering was triggered by the fact that a local (to the ground) hostelry used to put on a spread for visiting supporters and the long way round would have meant missing out on valuable imbibing time.

Is the Championship Salary Cap Tracker something (else) he's made up in his head as I doubt that information will be in the public domain?

Not personally but I remember the Fev Supporters' bus once continuing to head along the A66 after reaching the M6 for a game at Barrow before the driver turned round to head south down the motorway after much chuntering from the passengers....

Barrow to any other ground is bad news for evening games. It's an horrendous (although scenic) drive along the A595 to Whitehaven or Workington and even though shorter than say Leigh to York takes about as long.

Are you're aware of what's actually being built?

Well it clearly wasn't of any interest before.

It probably was 2 weeks ago when first reported..

I've always thought you delusional but if you honestly think that a flame cannon and fireworks (great time at 7pm on a summer's evening that no one will be able to see but the noise will upset virtually every pet and their owners within a mile radius of the ground) is going to get them flocking in....

It was nearly 2 weeks ago. Good to see he's on the ball...

I'm hoping the home team are allowed to use the flame cannons on any opposition winger flying down the touchline, that should improve the matchday experience......and make them run a bit quicker

Visually, the budget will also be used to enhance the matchday experience. Flame cannons and fireworks are among the features that should be expected at games in an attempt to improve the product to audiences.

TBH it'll take time enough for the defence to set to get a player off the field no matter what the injury

One day later than planned. Boarding 1:05:00, take 1:50:00. touchdown 2:01:00

If it's the one I think he's already pontificating that we will be (heavily) reliant on DR in 2022

A day before the 'fax game I could have booked to go to S France with the Mrs for 7 nights (Tues to Tues) flying from Manchester for less than £300 inc hotels and transfers. A long weekend in the Lakes is getting on for that

I had the sound on mute but wondered whether the 'strip' had been ruled as a knock on?

Yes. Fev did quite well out of Sheffield going FT

Eh?

They also lost a few of their better players who didn't want FT

They'll need them - not only do you possibly have to persuade current PT players to give up their day job but also to relocate

I was sort of replying to those on this thread who believe Newcastle simply going FT will make them one of the top Championship teams next season. 12 good Championship players is probably the absolute minimum to push top 4 and even then they will need to be lucky with injuries - at least 2 of the players linked to them haven't exactly got glowing recent injury records

Or even top end Championship. I'd reckon they need a dozen+ good signings

From at least one video angle there was no clear proof that his hand hadn't remained in contact with the ball until it touched the ground. Therefore the video ref goes by the on field decision. Tries like that are given almost every week in SL. The fact that none of us on here would have given it is irrelevant as we're a tad biased.
