Boots and Laces
My old man has been a fairly regular visitor recently at Boots and Laces until he was turned away last Thursday by a builder. He was told that he wouldn't be able to watch training sessions in the short term. Unfortunately he didn't think to ask why... anyone know what the works are and when he...- Blueeyedboy

Long story, power cuts and a water dowser.
If I had posted this when it started, it may have had the legs to match MK's fridge post. So i'll keep it short but you may get bored. Earlier this year, probably February time, I saw some damp patches on the left side outside wall of my house. Thought they would dry up but they didn't. We...- steveo

Anyone a builder?!
By all accounts part of the roof at Boots & Laces has collapsed. To add to that, the improvements that Phil Brown requested to be made, to make the players feel more at home etc, have ground to a halt. I won't say why, as I'm sure you can all work that one out!... :facepalm: Anyone fancy...- Smiffy
