The "house"? Your blue-rinse neighbours will be MOST put-out with you, and will point out that in Ilkley one posesses a "mansion", and a "cottage" that the estate manager is permitted to occupy. And maybe a kennel or two for the other staff (the butler lives in a pantry, of course). Unless of course by "the House" you are referring to e.g "Tot House", or to a mini-palace that is referred to locally as "The House", in which case then OK you may escape admonishment.
Regarding "Tories", I suspect most members of the Ilkley Con Club would be entirely at ease with you stoning most "Tory" members of the present "government" since they would profess them to all be plastic pinko liberals anyway...? Could we pay extra to buy a bucket of slightly smaller rocks for the investment bankers? So we get a good few days' entertainment out of each?

Some of us don't need to inflate our balls.
But i'll acknowledge the typo. it was obviously meant to be 1917 not 1197.

| Some good ideas here, like the food festival idea. Think a 'Bradford Bulls Curry Festival' could be a good shout, hopefully begin some relationships between the club and the asian community of the city and judging by the 1,088 posts on the RAB Curry Guide thread I think there would be a fair bit of interest.
Perhaps something that could be staged in the summer.. sunshine, curry stalls, the bulls whats not to like?

Pollsters doing Excellent job - say recent polls.: |
|
| There needs to be a permanent curry stall or two there. A link up with Aagrah or Mumtaz. Chapatti instead of rice( can't reheat rice) and three curries- meat , chicken & veg. Keep it simple but tasty.

I can't understand why we don't have curry stands all over the stadium, does anyone else know?

| I think they gave the contract for food in the stadium to one firm that sun contracts to the rat burger vans etc. Not sure of the economics or it.
I'd love there to be a curry stall in the stadium, the food has been pretty grim for years and I wouldn't touch it with a bargepole, the chippy at Odsal top is much better.

13554.jpg The phrase politically correct is in itself politcally incorrect so should be rephrased politically stupid!
If you like old type radio comedy/ dramas etc listen to //pumpkinfm.com/
Statistically speaking you have a better chance of getting dead the older you get!
Thank god only when you find a religion that passes the truth test!:13554.jpg |

| Quote: Blotto "Save us from MP's with so called solutions
wow, thats a new thought. Why has no-one suggested that one before? It would never keep a thread going though!
Maybe this MP has a magical solution to our and the RFL's legal and financial responsibilties to the Odsal lease? Can't remember how much but it costs a fair bit to quit Odsal I seem to remember.
Although, assuming those fees disappear, even if its no-ones first choice if it was administration/liquidation or move to VP for a viable future would we need to accept it?

| It'd could cost us millions to leave Odsal before 2019. Obviously this minor issue slipped Ward's mind. Unless he's proposing the Council try to persuade the RFL to give up their leasehold so Odsal can be sold then the Bulls can be forced into VP, great deal for us I don't think!

Its unusual for an MP to wade into an issue without understanding the detail.

| Attention-seeking otherwise-invisible politician in "jumping on bandwagon if can sense any political advantage" shocker.

| I believe City pay Gibbs flamingo land pension pot (aka Valley Parade) an astonishing £700k per annum..... Does anyone know what the Bulls pay the RFL?
I wish Mr Ward would look after his consituent town, its a freaking dump full of unemployed/unemployable chavs walking the streets.....
