Just a tiny bit excited they could do a Leicester over the next couple of years looking ant the underlying finances but they will probably sell the canteen to the kitchen for 500million or something and get out of it. |

It is something of a perfect storm for development in London. Taller blocks of flats have become extremely expensive to build and the new build flat sales market has almost completely collapsed post Grenfell. The building safety act introduced as a response to Grenfell has made it very tricky indeed to negotiate planning and construction with regard to any new builds other than low-density developments. The ones that are proceeding are probably housing association joint-ventures for social housing. In addition developments like Battersea power station were funded by selling off plan with sizeable deposits to buyers for example typically in the Far East. That money could then be used to fund the building works at least in part. That came to an end with Brexit. Overseas buyers using London for safe haven status have pretty much disappeared as a result of changes to non-dom tax status and tightening of immigration status. I suspect 100m is indeed an ambitious figure for that site now. |

we had a white Austin 1100 (you could watch the sub frame rust in real time) - I can still remember the smell of the upholstery- followed by a red Avenger then a mustard Marina 1.3 overhead cam which had totally inadequate brakes- particularly as he liked to drive to the Queen of England and have four pints every evening. Old Marinas are starting to go up in value a bit now presumably as there are so few left. |

Ted talks by former players to the squad. 'How to conduct yourself at Stoke' - Mark Bircham 'Catch the baby' - Tony Roberts 'Pidgeon Fancying and me' - Gerry Francis the list of possible topics is endless |

''There are also concerns that Stamford Bridge is beginning to look dated, leaving Chelsea at risk of falling behind their rivals, particularly with new Premier League squad-cost ratio rules coming into force this summer. These replace PSR and allow clubs to spend 85% of their total revenues on squad-related costs. Chelsea have only a 40,000‑capacity stadium and are around half of Manchester United's size, and probably £50-60m behind others," Maguire added. "With the introduction of the new squad‑cost ratio rules, it is really important for clubs to boost revenue wherever they can. "Chelsea are simply behind their rivals, with less to spend on players - and that will take its toll over time."' What a tragedy. |

Best not to think about these things too much and just enjoy the party. The new Irish President has been referring to him as Patrick rather than Saint Patrick and I am now worried he is going the get the Mountbatten Windsor treatment. If he does make an annual appearance could he focus lees on snakes and holy well installation and more on the cost of a pint of Guinness these days? |

The FA sanction is still to come on this. And other clubs may sue for the loss of silverware that resulted and hence financial loss. |

Michael Owen was the last English Ballon d'or winner quite a long time ago now. Noticeable that all the promising 10's that England had a couple of years ago seem to be struggling with the current brand of anti football - Foden, Eze etc. Good luck to the lad hope he does well. Shame he has Arletta as someone said. |

Yeah Pollock was a liability but the captain should have had them trucking it up for a few phases - great game though. Itoje embarrassing trying to affect Ramos. England need a different captain for the World Cup but probably won’t. |
