Probably through one of the Sport England or Football Foundation pots. Given our Championship status we wouldn't qualify for many of the stadium and facilities grants on offer. Give it a few years though ...

Before I get into this post I'll spell it out because I know the first reply will probably be "Are you comparing protesting against Venkys to ending apartheid in South Africa?" No, obviously, even if Venkys might be harder to get rid of. A common retort against the protests is "They won't even know it's happened", and that always makes me think of the Dunnes Store ladies in Ireland. They started a protest against selling South African grapefruits that everyone said was useless, how can 10 ladies in Ireland not selling grapefruits end apartheid. It took a while but through a chain of events started by 1 person seeing their protest their persistence led to Ireland being the first country to ban the import and sale of all goods from South Africa which triggered others to follow suit and started an economic meltdown that helped end the regime. David Nihill covers it brilliantly. So, to those boycotting the match today, talking to the press, talking to their mates ... you don't know who is going to see it, you don't know who they are going to tell and you don't know who's going to be our Nimrod.

Even better ... https://letmegooglethat.com/

Every time we do - people abuse it ... sorry, the minority mean the majority of us can't have nice things.

Barrister will go down with cramp on case #35 to waste time and get the physio on.

Leave it with me…

Not a beanie hat, but keep your eyes open on Thursday ...

Watch this space ... 😉

Shop now pop pickers! Alright!

And the cars 🤣

Someone on Facebook has done the Leamington Road ground with AI (I assume)

There's a legend that part of Sacred Heart is what was the old pavilion, but I really doubt it, it would have been wooden for a start more than likely. Maybe send Time Team round?

Can't you just pop round and have a look @RevidgeBlue 😀

I like these, a nice distraction from reading just our own summary.

This work has been delayed to a later date, but why not use the delay to test logging in via your email? You can do it today as well as your screen name, but after the upgrade, it'll just be email address.

Over the weekend of the 11th and 12th of October we need to carry out some essential maintenance on the forum software and unfortunately there will be down time. This will last from midnight on the 10th of October till the work finishes on the morning of the 11th. If you use your handle or screen name to log in (StubbsUK in my case), the suppliers of the forum software have made a change that means you must use your email to log in from now on, rather than your screen name. We don't expect you'll need to log in after the upgrade, but just in case make sure you know what email address you used to register and make sure it's up to date. The forum will not be accessible during this time, but the front page with all our articles will be. If all goes well most people won't even notice, if it doesn't ... spare a thought for the poor admins trying to fix it.

Russell Martin has to be the latest member of the British Managers Lunch Club doesn't he? 😄

It's not really a resource we make the best use of, but that's probably because we're a bunch of old farts who don't have the time to produce a Youtube video for every pod (ask @Herbie6590 how long just the audio version takes) but also, we're old farts and don't have the time to understand what makes a good Youtube video 😄

As part of a wider array of events that would be ace, maybe a veterans game against them before a league game. I hope that's not all we get, because that would be dissapointing.

I don't know if being at the game gives you a more negative view, or if I'm just naturally harsh, but some of the scores in the BRFCS.com MOTM poll seem generous. https://www.brfcs.com/football/match/1386555/west-brom-blackburn You have till 3pm today (Sunday) if you want to add your votes.
