    Not sure if you're joking but stayed there over Easter when I took the kids to Harry Potter Studios. Was decent and we got the train down into London pretty easily. Would recommend.





    This is where you now tell me its an infamous dogging hotspot or something. Still would recommend.

    Man City winning the league four times in a row is a serious achievement to be fair, its up there with Lance Armstrong winning seven tours on the bounce <whistle>

    Last time I did drugs I could hardly walk let alone ride a bike. Fair play to Lance, just like city, cheated better than everyone else.

    ... but not on the pitch ... on the pitch they're just another Pep team doing what Pep teams do ... playing smashing football and lifting trophies ...

    ... annoying ain't it?

    Infrastructure don’t come under FFP, bro.

    So debt/ loan repayments for the stadium don’t get deducted from our “FFP budget”.

    FFP is essentially player expenditure and we’re well under budget on that - apparently by about £220m-£250m.

    For all your whinging and belly aching you've kept coming second to a better team and manager - in all your glory years there were no financial constraints on you - was that 'fair play'? ...

    ... and for me there shouldn't be for anybody else now - FFP as it stands ain't fit for purpose ... other means are available but wouldn't be as effective in stifling competition for the Big boys ...

    If you want real FFP then bring in wage and transfer caps that apply to ALL and a draft system ... would make the league more interesting and competitive for everyone other than the Big 6 ...
