    Roundabouts

    According to Chatgpt, East Kilbride, Coventry, and Milton Keynes lead the way in the absolute number of roundabouts in the UK. Also notable, if one is interested in roundabouts, Cwmbran, in south Wales, has the densest concentration of roundabouts relative to its size.

    New Everton Stadium - Hill Dickinson Stadium

    Yes, I agree. A lot of other clubs have their safe-standing rails painted to match the colour of the seats and it looks so much better. At Everton, the rails look unfinished and like scaffolding poles. They would look so much better painted blue. Here is Spurs safe-standing area. Much more...

    They are the loge seats, or boxes. They are still on sale on Seat Unique for the Brighton game - £1499 per seat, with a minimum of two seats per order. I'm not sure of this, but I think that may be a reduced price.

    Yes, it would look better, but I think you're right about the regulations. I believe the standing area has been built to the maximum allowed rake, and it would have needed to be steeper to align with the upper tier.

    I would guess the staircase behind the club shop is connected to internal concourses and/or hospitality areas. Then, after games, fans exiting the stadium are directed through the club shop before leaving the stadium, thus increasing sales in the shop. I may be wrong but that would make sense...

    I like the idea of using glazing below the truss, if only so one can see what used to be there. More likely, I think it will be hidden away behind advertising banners.

    Maybe they are going to board up/seal off the Lower Bullens to reduce capacity - the same way the old Park End was sealed off in the middle. That's what I would do to reduce capacity. There are better views in the Upper Bullens and Paddock if that stand is to remain in use.

    West Cornwall Pasty Company. Not based in the city, but baked in Cornwall, and sold via regional retailers. Great supplier.

    Another game now suspended due to "adverse weather" - Benfica vrs Chelsea - I think that is six games so far that have been disrupted by the weather.

    5 things to fix the British economy

    Indeed. We're not quite there yet, but give it 30/40 years, there will be little need for schools or teachers. AI, delivered at home, will be the best teacher. It will save the government a fortune.

    It isn't finished :) And give it a few years, from a birds-eye view, it will be instantly recognisable to your average football fan.

    Things, shows, people, gimmicks you find completely not funny.

    Any kind of staged scenario for social media, usually accompanied by particularly bad acting. If it's not genuine, it's not funny.

    Benfica v Auckland - fourth time now that a match in the tournament has been suspended due to 'adverse weather'. They are lengthy delays too. No doubt this cautious policy to nearby adverse weather conditions will have a negative impact on matches in next years World Cup.
