Blackpool trains (27th Aug) - no timetable in place
East Londoner replied to sephjnr's topic in Football Chat
In fairness the lack of Avanti services only really affects those coming from London. If you’re coming by train from Bristol, there’s services to Blackpool from Manchester Piccadilly roughly every 45 minutes And for those London based, you can take a LNER or Grand Central service to York and there’s an hourly service from there. Granted it’s not ideal but you will get to enjoy the Yorkshire countryside There’s no strike action scheduled currently and the unions are required to give 14 days notice, so if it hasn’t been called by this weekend you’ll be alright -

I’m using real times trains because i work in the industry. It won’t be shown on journey planners as the connection time at Birmingham officially is 15 minutes but at 2300 shouldn’t be an issue. Alternatively if you take that 2141 and stay on till Birmingham you’ll have a more leisurely connection onto the 2310 -

I see Coventry are refunding all home tickets sold and making it pay on the day. What could possibly go wrong -

There is an option of getting the train back to London from Burton changing either at Tamworth or Birmingham but not getting back to Euston until around 0100 -
Don’t the big Spanish clubs usually sell their training grounds to local councils for ridiculous figures as their usual means of staving off bankruptcy

Surely the problems with police approval and staffing would still exist -

Coventry seem to be doing a good job of playing the victim but it was the actions of their owners who caused them to lose their share of the stadium Wasps then bought the stadium from the local council -

Is unlikely as Coventry already have todays game to reschedule -

The only way we could realistically host would be behind closed doors at the training ground given it has to be played this midweek as we’ve both got games next midweek and the week after it’s the second round and they’d need police approval and staff at short notice Coventry may well decide it’s not worth the hassle and forfeit -
He was mainly consistent however their number 4 already on a yellow card committed a second foul similar to ones others had been booked for and kept his card in his pocket

On last again and even behind a goalless bore draw

The speakers were fine until the ground filled up and then it was effectively useless. So it probably tests fine whenever people complain as that’s not when there’s an issue and then it’s not easy to test when the ground is full

Thing is they’re either ignoring or forgetting why wasps are there in the first place and it’s because of their owners. Also it appears that the commonwealth games actually have exclusive access until the 14th and they agreed to end it early to accommodate Coventry, now I’m sure Coventry weren’t told a week ago ‘oh btw there’s going to be some rugby but it shouldn’t be a problem’ Could we offer to host but at the training ground and stream it? -

Hull City away match day thread
East Londoner replied to Curr Avon's topic in The Havanatopia Match Day Archive
Looked like a foul that’s given anywhere on the pitch except the penalty area -
Thought it was Dean Whitestone

What did he do?

I did the tour when i visited Melbourne years ago and after about 5 minutes suddenly realised what the hell am i doing I’m taking photos of houses The whole sadness thing is interesting though, despite people not having watched it for 10 years plus it’s taking people back to that point in their life and they’re saying goodbye to it

They’ve tried to please everyone which is nice but to do so it was always going to be cheesy Although Kylie not talking was frankly bizarre

Just chased mine up to be told it’s been sent to a temporary address in Bristol, only problem is i haven’t lived in Bristol for 17 years ?? I’m both perplexed and low key impressed given how they managed to do that when not only am I’m renewing but they also post me away tickets to my actual address several times a season
