The collective trains of thought that run through these threads could keep cognitive  scientists in work for years.

From some speculation that the ‘issue’ is ‘something’ to do with Moor Farm - nobody knows what - the thread has gone on to conclude that Moor Farm is going to be a housing estate (why - seemingly because Erewash councillors are all Forest fans!?!?), we’ve then moved on to Clowes wanting to develop Moor Farm (why - because he’s a developer, so stands to reason right), then - as a result of these nailed on certainties - we’ve moved on to identifying alternative locations for a training ground, moving existing businesses, without any consideration for the costs of such things, the time it would take to achieve, whether the businesses want to move, where they’d move to etc and then onto all our yesterdays and how it was all wonderful before anybody built industrial and retail units on an industrial estate and retail park and they should have left it as fields (not that it was) or railway sidings (which would have been unused) or should have turned it into parkland (where does all the industry go… fields?). And then we have some moaning about traffic in Pride Park… all from ‘the remaining issue is something to do with Moor Farm’.  

Fascinating really. Proving the rule that nature abhors a vacuum. 

Nice and accurate summary .

You should do the same sort of summary for the entire fiasco from Day 1 (whenever that was?) QPR at Wembley?

Mixed meat kebab and chips from the chippy across from Edgbaston for me.

Never spent so much time at the cricket refreshing my phone on this bloody thread!

Watching it now on my monitor ("working" on my laptop).  Where are you? Give us a wave. ?

Well if needs be they could use my Lee's brook school football pitches.

What I love about this, is that you are being deadly serious. God bless you B4.

The human brain works in "association", which is why there is a “train of thought” or the way a conversation develops – quite often off on tangents and far away from the original topic.

Edit: Edit: I somehow lost a lot of what I typed here about the different groups of optimists and pessimists, pro Rooney, anti Rooney etc. and need to do some work so can’t re-type it all.

FFS it's going to be another day where nothing happens isn't it? ?

<ominous music>

June the 4th, 1973, was much like any other summer's day in Peterborough, and Ralph Mellish, a file clerk at an insurance company, was on his way to work as usual when --- <da dum!> Nothing happened! <dum dum da dum>

Scarcely able to believe his eyes, Ralph Mellish looked down. But one glance confirmed his suspicions. Behind a bush, on the side of the road, there was *no* severed arm. No dismembered trunk of a man in his late fifties. No head in a bag. Nothing. Not a sausage.

For Ralph Mellish, this was *not* to be the start of any trail of events which would not, in no time at all, involve him in neither a tangled knot of suspicion, nor any web of lies, which would, had he been not involved, surely have led him to no other place, than the central criminal court of the Old Bailey. <muttering voices, Judge's gavel banging.> But it was not to be <ominous music returns>.

Ralph Mellish reached his office in Dulls-ells Street in Peterborough, at 9:05 a.m., exactly the same time as he usually got in! <door opens>

"Morning, Mr. Mellish"

"Morning, Enid"

Enid, a sharp-eyed, clever young girl, who had been with the firm for only 4 weeks, couldn't help noticing the complete absence of tiny but tell-tale blood stains on Mr. Mellish's clothing. Nor did she notice anything strange in Mr. Mellish's behaviour that whole morning. Nor the next morning. Nor at any time before or since the entire period she worked for that firm.

"Have the new paper clips arrived, Enid?"

"Yes, they're over there, Mr. Mellish." <faintly> "Oh..."

But for the lack of any untold circumstances for this secretary to notice, and the total non-involvement of Mr. Mellish in anything illegal, the forweight of the law would insure that Ralph Aulds Mellish would have ended up like all who challenge the fundamental laws of our society. In an iron coffin with spikes on the inside.
