I was at the count last night and a couple of people did want to chat about stanley rather than the election !!

i am on the train back to London. the pendolino with wifi is brilliant - although i had planned to take a bit of a kip.

are you going to cheltenham tomorrow ?

Sadly not. I'm tied up until about 2pm tomorrow - it would have been nice to catch the last game. Still, I'm looking forward to getting out to Southend and Wycombe next season....those should be fun. I hope Daggers stay down for the same reason (their ground reminds me of the Crown)

You're dead right about the Pendolino..leave Euston half past the hour and in Accy 2hrs 47minutes later. Branson needs to get the seat radio sorted out though, and get Classic FM or Radio 3 on there.

It's no secret.

It was discussed on here weeks ago, when Graham' pamphlet was published, picturing Ilyas out canvassing with him, and then Graham confirmed he had received Mr. Khan's backing.

Obviously knows how to back a winners.

He might thinks it's all a bit too show bizzy.

Like when the young Conservatives had Kenny Everett at their rally, and he said 'Let's bomb Russia'.

Perhaps he was expecting Ilyas to shout 'Let's nuke Turf Moor'.

:D

no doubt we will find out when the next New Years "honours" list comes out , hopefully it will be for services to football ,something Jack Walker never managed to achieve, (often wondered if Jack Straw had owt to do with that ) . :D :D

Don't know owt about rent boys, but he and Fred Skinner both came out/were raised on Providence St. Little Harwood :D maybe it's more the fact that Jack's dad got done for cruelty to his horse/donkey in the 30s had something to do with his not getting the deserved honours (my old man was raised on the same street and went to skoo with them) .... a little bit of family tittle tattle :D :D

Ilyas's connection locally (and nationally) with Labour goes all the way back to Arthur Davidson's period. Well before my time.

I think it is extremely positive that the likes of Ken Roach (Conservative) and other well known people entered the political debate. It made the debates more inclusive and in some small way, more civilised and honest in my view.

Are u trying to insinuate something irregular is going on footynut ??? Knowing Ilyas everything is above board & whom he supports is his own business, tho can assure he does so for the love of the borough as well as stanley & has best interests at heart :D
