Letchworth Model Railway Society Exhibition 22July 2023

Letchworth Model Railway Society Exhibition 22 July 2023 at the Priory School in Hitchin 10:00 - 4:30pm. Appreciate this will be of interest to some and not to others but model trains in the morning and footie in the afternoon sounds like a nice day for me! https://www.letchworthmrs.org.uk/index.php...

Re: iPhones

Hi

The kids have both replaced their iphones with Google Pixel phones in the last month so I'm trying to find out what happened to them and if they are still any good.

Re: Am I an optimist

Have to say I'm really pleased with the announcements on virtually all the squad returning however a real mix of emotions about the last two announcements. I was really hoping we might try and resign Isaac Galliford. He's such a talented attacking midfielder. Play him to his strengths and we will ge...

Re: Luton Town

Good posting Becca. As a Luton fan I too was worried about what might happen if they achieved promotion but when Mick Harford was interviewed by Sky Sports just before kick off, he summed it up nicely. When asked what £170m would mean to Luton his response was. "It will set club up and pay for ...

Re: Am I an optimist

Good to read that Ciaren Jones has signed for us on a contract for the coming season.

Really important part of the defence and will add a few goals as well.

Re: Luton Town

Congratulations to Luton.

Unfortunately I couldn't get a ticket but cheered them on from the settee.

Good to see Stuart Hammonds on the pitch in his suit at the end.

Luton Town

One game away from the Premier League. Absolutely incredible from where they were just nine years ago playing non-league football. Pelly Ruddock Mpanzu who played Conference Premier for Luton started last nights game and is still only 29. Whatever happens on 27th May at Wembley, it's been an incredi...

Re: Financial fair play

Interesting posting Becca1980. I like the idea of encouraging clubs to produce more home grown talent. However does taking players on loan from higher level clubs actually stifle bringing home grown youngsters through. I do think having five subs plus two youth/academy players on the bench for every...

Re: Financial fair play

Is there really financial fair play at top level, I don't think so. Many big clubs spend way beyond their means and have transfer embargos for not following the rules. Also if things go badly there is always some foreign investor waiting in the wings. The difference at our level is an individual wit...
