To be fair, it could be a tricky one to remember unless you are possessed of impeccable dress sense and musical sensibility. Sound does indeed affect.

Told you we'd win! Or did I just dream it?

94.9 if you're in Bristol

Google Jerry Dammers and the Special AKA to discover how connected he was to Britain, and the part played in telling the world Mandela's story and securing his release.

Fair enough, if all we're doing is reminding ourselves that violence was used in resisting the opressors, then I don't have a problem with that.

Wow, disappointing that people are bringing this stuff up in a discussion honouring the man's death. Of course Mandela co-founded the ANC's military wing, and its fight against the evil regime sometimes resorted to violence. You see this as a bad thing? As someone else alluded to, for Mandela to renounce the violence of the ANC would be akin to the French Resistance rolling over for Hitler. It is no different. In both cases sadly, blood was shed, but good triumphed over bad. And Jerry Dammers got to write one of his catchiest tunes! RIP

From the images released so far and displayed at the public consultation, the proposal is to have four completely different stands. The popular objection to bowl-like stadia is that they are uniform all the way round and therefore have no character. Regardless of whether some or all of the corners are joined up, a stadium with four distinctly different sides definitely does not constitute a bowl. I think it looks like it will have character, in the same way that the redeveloped Hawthorns or Bramall Lane do, for example. Not saying it's necessarily better than the AV model mind, but it will have its own look and personality, definitely not your 'crisp bowl'.

Ah, I hear ya. Makes sense, except for the logistics of demolishing the EE part way through the season. Is that really workable?

When has the club said that? League position and the prospects for promotion (or even relegation) have no bearing on the need to build or redevelop. They will want to get something going regardless of current form on the pitch.

Wise words mate.

Well they weren't the most attractive footballing side in the world...but they certainly were the most successful BCFC side ever in living memory. So yes it has to be Dicks Up!
