My diesel Lexus is not compliant either, yet the 2013 5 litre petrol Range Rover that I have is. Crazy if you ask me. Today is my last trip in the Lexus, I do not think I will take the Range Rover in the future. We will use the wife's ULEZ acceptable Mini.

Good to have options.

Just don't tell her! You'll save on fuel costs as well then.
All the best today - hopefully a comfy win and into 5th.
We were easily the better side should probably have won by more but we remain wasteful with our conversions and there was a bit of carelessness with the ball. Albert had a bit of a spell when he kept dropping it. Thought we were excellent in the first half and being able to bring on Albert, Stock and Williams is really a plus. Thought Whare had his best game and Grant has come back energised from his spell out. Both Leyland did well again. One of the things our team lacks is competition for places on the wing and with Ulberg out there is quite a bit of pressure on Macani who I think has done well but could do with a rest. Haven’s fans were in good voice but I’m not sure about their team. They have some willing runners and Aiye is a threat but it’s only Doran who has the X factor. He looks nothing like my idea of an athlete but is excellent and his kicking is really threatening. Crowd numbers- pretty poor I think. Sub 400? On another matter those who attend may be aware of Big Al who basically acts as a one man band for driving forward the atmosphere. At times it can be a bit tiring but he did a really good job of lifting the crowd second half and I was surprised to see him moved on by Plough Lane staff late in the day. Maybe I got it wrong but, if not, I don’t think that’s the way to go personally. Without him we basically get out sung by travelling fans which is pretty poor.
Jesus christ. I'm stunned that anyone on the back office staff has the nerve to steal a wage. 400? 300? Last time...
Pough lane? It makes no difference if we stun Fev and gain promotion, whilst Hughes owns the club crowds will never grow and the last 2 attendances will have dragged the average down lower than Ealing......HIS 5000 target has been missed but there is no accountability as usual. What makes it worse is NOBODY is surprised it's come to this and the RFL/IMG aren't coming to the rescue any time soon. Either a new owner is found or the RFL make a serious decision about how they want the game to be viewed by the entire population. Wall to Wall TV coverage will only further dilute attendances and underline the geographical split of the game.

Apart from that, Mrs Lincoln, did you enjoy the performance?

I actually think a lot of it will not be the actual cost even if shared but more likely the principle. Ticket price, petrol, food, enough for most without another charge on top, it will discourage Vintage classic cars don't pay by the way
Principle? Sounds a bit like the principle of cutting off your nose to spite your face. Interesting what you say about the classic/ vintage cars , was looking up the London- Brighton Mini Run for next year ( wife used to have a Mini, haven’t been for years) and read that next year’s run has been cancelled, citing ULEZ as the main issue. OK full disclosure, it was a Daily Mail article and they never knowingly pass up an opportunity to Khan bash .

I love the fact that we're a side that isn't battling relegation, but no amount of wins will disguise the fact that 400 fans just isn't enough to bankroll the club and in a stadium that holds 10,000 is a stark reminder of how badly the club is run.
