OI-can I be the first to start the Luke Garrard for Wimbledon manager conversation again

REPD - if Stewart leaves, he can only return on condition that he learns to use “have” rather than “of” when appropriate…. 😉

Rochdale deserve it but I'll be cheering for Borehamwood.

Rochdale v Borehamwood national league playoff final.

Reckon Pep would like the second scouse goal

He'll be in there longer after Yernited just gave away a two goal lead

Stewart maybe not staying - [Link]

JJ is probably having a lie down in a darkened room with an ice pack on his forehead… 🥵😂

Pete - I did a quick search but couldn’t find anything… Does he come on here any more?

keefy - must have been fascinating, and yes it’s superb that people around the world can get to see these things… It’s quite incredible how much great art can be seen for free in this country - in recent years I went here for the first time (it’s in Greenwich), it’s free, it doesn’t get too busy, and there is work by Canaletto, Gainsborough, and plenty more… [Link]

Are there any Haydon marathon pics yet?

No after match summary from JJ yet!

A4, I worked at the National Gallery for 20 + and the care and preparation for loans out all round the world were beyond maticulous. Air sealed containers holding Framed picures with suitable anti movement pads to prevent damage whilst in the air or an onward truck journeys to the gallery. All very expensive including sight visits to check where the picture would be hung and whether walls were stable enough to hang a painting which could be very heavy. A mine field to overcome! But it also allowed more people to view works of art.

Dundonald - No problem with Edge here ...

OI, I switched on just as the penalty was being reviewed, I thought the Bournemouth player was being looked at for ungentlemanly conduct

Anyone else been following the snooker? Wish I'd put a score on the little Chinese fella way back when I first noticed how good he was. Raw natural talent. Good luck to him. Just what the game needs.

CW - exactly, and in truth I’d say that items as delicate and large as the tapestry probably shouldn’t really go travelling around from country to country… I knew someone who worked in moving extremely valuable works of art from gallery to gallery including abroad, and the lengths they had to go to (not to mention the insurance minefield) were almost unbelievable - mind you, he was talking about works by the likes of Picasso, Constable, etc etc…

Boreham Wood edging Carlisle and a totally ridiculous penalty in Bournemouth v Palace.

Reading has a copy of the Bayeux tapestry which I saw for free in August with about 3 other people as opposed to the British museum scrum that will occur later this year for the original for 60 quid each

Hash, the Club viewed the Kassam as a temporary home due to both its location and the way the agreement between the Club and Kassam doesn't allow them to use the stadium for events (income goes to owner). I believe they also had to pay rent. They're moving for start of 27/28 into a 15,000 stadium nr the P&R at Kidlington about 3 miles north of the ciry

Reading doesn't have much, whoever designed the town failed to take advantage of its riverside location, the river kennet tributary and the backdrop of the Chiltern hills. There is, however, a small area around Forbury Pk nr the station, with the Abbey ruins and the HM prison famous for Oscar Wilde's stay. The prison also has an excellent banksy

that should be sell Browne

BTW if we do sign Browne we should use that money to re-sign Maycock and Seddon

Hash I don't think Oxford own it. Anyway, they have planning permission for a new ground at Kidlington.
