Mary Ferrer lost her seat last election, she does not like John Wilkinson, and campaigned against his plans for Buile hill park, she like all liberals would rather not see anything done and let buildings fall down, she used to moan about matchday parking as well, and people parking near her house, so she should be happy we are moving. Just like her leader Negative Norman a pair of dinosaurs licking the boots of the tories.

Nice pics BF - gutted about the plane sale though

Certainly starting to take shape - from the below you can pretty much see where the stadium and the training/community pitches will sit on the site, in fact the orange sandy area looks like it may be the bed of the stadium's pitch.

You're right to laugh, it's going to be awful having a sewage works near our new stadium.

I take it you don't have any sewage works near your stadium?
