Do you have figures for that manc mag, I'd be interested, because I worked in the city centre for around 20 years and came across as many UK citizens visiting the city as I did foreigners? I realise anecdotal evidence doesn't prove anything. I read somewhere that Manchester was the 3rd most visited city, but that people using the airport were included in the figures. I realise that the same would apply to all cities with airports, but Manchester airport must be 2nd or 3rd in the country for passenger numbers. Don't have the source but I'm pretty sure Liverpool's overall tourist numbers are more heavily skewed towards the foreign visitor when compared to other comparable cities. Manchester's is also kept conspicuously high by Man U though I concede. Newcastle is by far more UK based tourists. Hardly any there for eg the football (Man U/Liverpool) or the music (Beatles), all there for the present day vibrancy of the city (ie stag and hen parties getting slaughtered).

Gets lots of visitors, but not many of them British, which probably speaks volumes. Only 30 miles away from me but really absolutely no need to go there, ever.

Know absolutely nowt about him at all, but the single touch at 0.17 (repeated at 0.26) tells me all I need to know that he's got talent. Just about whether he's consistent or not.

I keep reading Lorient as an abbreviated form of Leyton Orient. Annoying tbh.

Or Platini's rules being worth a shite !! It'd be nice if that proved to be the case, but I live in the real world. I'll be viewing any percentile of change as a bonus, however small, but I won't be raising my hopes unduly.

The time and whether it was a waste is immaterial, but it's a fact that the years in europe and the expansion of the stadium, and what that brought, was "wasted" or squandered if you prefer. We were about to drop into the old third division, let alone the stadium. Everything about the club, yes the liabilities but also the merchandising and corporate sales side was vastly improved. I would take us at the point Mike bought the club to when John Hall did easily. The paradox being that John Hall (now) wouldn't. And that's not me either agreeing or disagreeing with the point made either-just trying to illustrate how pointless the argument has now become. Well, I agree he wouldnt. He's a very switched on bloke. He could see the cash that could be made from rescuing the club, growing and then floating it. The club could be bought and refloated again but the same kind of mark up couldnt be made. But, I'd still say we're in a better position now (or when MA bought the club) than when SJH bought it. True, in fact it's likely that a loss could be made depending on several factors. As fans we're detached from those issues, but it's at the very forefront of a buyers mind. This is why I think it's a pointless argument. Obviously as a fan, bottom middle of the Prem is better than bottom of the old Second Division. Looking to the future though, it's pretty much irrelevant; that's entirely dependent upon the profile (meaning independent, liquid wealth) of one's next owner.

Shouldn't be allowed to see it if it was filmed in open court. Common law is tricky by it's nature as it is basically made up as you go along. Much like most law.

Epic post, mate! All the very best with everything and enjoy the gay perks of Brighton too you geet hom.

That's quite a range.

74 seconds before it goes to Voicemail?!

If it's any consolation for outgoing supafans, theres some smart looking lasses work in the box office.

Is it a comfortable position? Hell no when is charity work ever secure? Its all about locating funding! And it's Jan in the hot seat! Bit of respect for the job wouldn't come amiss, Chez.

I wish Mark Stimson had worked from home like.

there's bottles in Asda in Leeds you lazy bastard. Fucking Leeds you cheeky cunt!

I'm at my dad's for two nights, dropped in here not expecting much... http://lambtonhounds.webeden.co.uk/ Can buy it around Leeds/York/Hgate; http://www.rudgatebrewery.co.uk/where-to-buy.aspx a full 10 TS's from me like, but I obsess over dark smooth, nutty beer. Looks like a cracking little pub that. I think that's the same turn off the A1 as my nanna's (but the other way). I've found myself getting more into the lighter hoppier/IPA's as that's where the artisan breweries seem to have concentrated their work but if you do find a genuinely good dark beer it's always hard to beat, particularly Autumn/Winter months.

....ah right, just realised you said it was on cask so it'll have been down your local. Shame. Always looking to try newly recommended real ales.

Never even heard of that Rudgate TS, where did you get hold of that old son?

This. I'd be asking her to keep the bra on tbh.

Quality, not heard a Fish rant for a while.
