This photo doesn't do the place justice, but I took this before the England vs Brazil game. 

At this point a band were playing on the stage in the distance 

The external walls on both levels are the bars and food outlets, with seating in the main area and balcony standing upstairs 

The nearest thing I can compare it to is the old sports bar (I forgot the name) that used to be in Baldwin Street 

A bit like St Nicks market but with just food and drink

What is Boxpark, a sort of Alton Towers with all rides package themed ?

I've wondered that as well, no idea what it is

Owners got a lot to answer for

Am I missing something here? 

Where have we said we're in favour? 

It's just a list of clubs who come out and said they're against it 

It's on the spreadsheet along with other teams that have come out in favour or against, the link is to YT vid of the Norwich manager which i've mentioned.

Read it and the comments, it's not rocket science.

The source linked is the Norwich City pre match presser - I'm not sure David Wagner speaks for Jon Lansdown. I'm not even sure Jon Lansdown speaks for Jon Lansdown come to think of it.

I did see the link was to that, but I suspect City will be in favour though

City in favour according to this spreadsheet and page

Well this just isn't cricket, what else would you expect from over there

Daughter has just passed her test, she's 17, insurance seems to be an absolute minefield, we knew it wasn't going to be cheap but I cant find any rhyme or reason for pricing, I spent most of yesterday afternoon getting quotes online.

2018 Fiesta 1L  Just her fully comp £2.5k, with my wife on it £2.2k and 3rd party only £3k

With some other makes/models slightly cheaper.

Has anyone got any recommendations for companies/brokers?

TIA

Meanwhile in the land of sweaty socks....

I don't know hence why i said 'it looks like' 

It wouldn't surprise me or I expect anyone else if they've gone down this route and there'll be a NDA as well so we'll probably never find out

Haven't seen this but if it is the case another person in a privileged position escaping justice and paying off someone for "something they never did".

Looks like she's been paid off €700k form Horner and Red Bull €300k

Rich white men escaping the consequences of their actions again with money.

Cheaper to sack her than it is him

You can guarantee since this story broke Red Hull HR or their HR company have been all over her work records like a rash.

May have made an incorrect entry on their timesheet, incorrect entry onto an expenses claim. It'll be the something like that and it's the easiest way to get rid of someone.
