Fully accept all of that and have absolutely no issue with BA (I actually massively support what they’re trying to achieve) other than a few popping up on Twitter taking swipes at NSL which is massively counterproductive and, like you say, creates a divide whereas both sections should be bouncing off each other and spreading the noise.
It’s difficult because S5 would be ideal but like you say, people can’t be expected to move to accommodate BA unfortunately – it’s just not fair and any suggestion of it should be shot down. Fully accept the point about some stand there with their arms folded – I personally try to join in with as much and as many songs as possible as do quite a few others around me, but there are also some that just stand, arms folded, and don’t get involved at all. That said, they have a right to be there as much as me.
Seems like the most sensible and best solution is to get NSL and BA as one, however it seems to be the hardest possible outcome to achieve which is why it’s a shame they’ve moved to Block A, but also can see why that move had to happen for the good of BA. |

In what way is that close minded? I agree that S5 is the best place for BA because it's central to the main singing section, but why should people already in S5 move to accommodate them, when alot of those people sing already? What makes BA more important or better singers than those in the North Lower already?
The reality is, they never should have moved from S6 and them getting back in the NL is very slim. |

Been a while mate, I'm more of a silent viewer these days - I post my fair share on Twitter but do still dip in and out of here just to read what people are saying! |

I would guess that's not true - just been on to get my seat in S5 bang in the middle and there are loads of seats available in S5, they're not blocked out so would assume BA have been told to go for tickets just like everyone else.
It certainly would be unfair if BA were given priority over tickets in a high demand area just because they're part of a group who feel entitled to pick where they go. I think the way they've done it is completely fair. |

Oh I fully agree mate, been there through all of it, standing in freezing temperatures watching us lose while not having a shot on goal... But I wouldn't change that for anything because, as you say, the good times are so much sweeter when we've experienced the hard times. It still feels slightly surreal when you see the league table and all the stats surrounding us at the moment - it finally feels like the club we all dreamed would return, has returned! |

Haven’t posted on here for a while but felt like I wanted to again just to highlight how enjoyable it is being a Town fan again. As we all know, it’s been a long slog watching Town over the past 13years with very limited amounts of ‘good’ moments sprinkled in there – whether it be the false dawns of Keane and Jewell, Lambert’s awful tenure, Mick’s shocking football towards the end, the short lived ‘Hirst era’ or just the complete lack of care or know-how by Evans, it was becoming increasingly depressing supporting Town and it also seemed never ending. I used to look at other clubs who have climbed the leagues or were just much more modern or better run than us and wished it was us. I look at everything now, and I imagine that other clubs are looking at us and wishing they were doing how we’re doing it, and to even suggest that still seems completely bonkers after the hard decade we’ve endured.
I can’t really think of any negatives around the club at the moment, we just seem like a relentless, forward moving machine that is doing it the right way, with the right players, the right staff and of course, the right manager. For the Town fans of my age or younger (30 and under), we’ve not really had alot to shout about – I saw the Burley days but at 6/7 years old, you can’t fully appreciate it at that age, but I really feel like not only is McKenna and exceptional coach/manager at his young age of 37, but I feel like we’re witnessing the start of a phenomenal coaching career and feel privileged to be part of it. I have no doubt that K McK is going to be a TOP manager, he’s got everything needed to achieve it, and it just feels like a complete privilege to watch him manage, to watch his team and to watch the club moving forward with him at the helm.
The squad of players we have at the moment are fantastic too – some Ipswich lads in there always helps, but they all just seem completely united, focused on the task at hand, level headed and driven. No more big-time charlies or problem players constantly getting injured, but just a great group of players who want to give 100% every week and strive. What more can you want as a Town fan? That’s all I’ve ever asked for. It really feels like a special club moving in the right direction at the moment – we’ve had a fantastic start beyond anyone’s expectations (I’d of been happy with 10 points at this stage!) and they’re not scrappy wins which we didn’t deserve, they’re assured, confident wins achieved through on-point game management.
I still have that horrible feeling in the back of my head that it’ll all come crashing down, that’s been ingrained into me over the past 13/15years, but I’ll be honest, it’s starting to fade and I really think that finally, after alot of years of hurt, we’re finally the club that I dreamed we would be once again, the one I fell in love with in the late 90’s/early 2000’s, and long may it continue. Up the Town!

Agree completely mate, I'm going tonight too and really looking forward to it - he's not everyone's cup of tea but always been a big fan of his stuff. Comedy is subjective, so some people will think he's sh*t and not worth it, others will love it. |

I managed to pass first time on 1st March this year with 6minors and weirdly didn't feel nervous about any of it.
Just don't get too downbeat about it. People fail, just get a bit more practice and try again, it's all you can do. As for nerves, someone else above mentioned it but just try and concentrate on your driving so there is no room for nerves.
The one thing my instructor said that stuck with me is to just treat your test like a 35minute lesson. Maybe if you forget you're being examined it will help? I just chatted to my examiner about Town and got on with the driving and it was fine. |

That sounds exactly what I'm looking for!
My current desktop PC is getting on a bit but has 8GB DDR4 RAM, Intel dual-core 2.93 GHz and a fairly new AMD graphics card, so I'm anticipating that any budget laptop I buy will be either a downgrade or on level par with my PC, but my need for mobility has become more of a priority and the power/graphics potential a lot less of a necessity.
An i3 processor would be entirely sufficient and I am used to 8GB of RAM now so would probably need that in a laptop, so I'll have a good look around and see what I can find, but I'll avoid the Intel Celeron as like you say, I've not heard great things!
Cheers for your help. |

I have looked into Chromebook's but I'm so used to Windows and the more advanced features that I think Chromebook would be slightly too basic. |

I used to use my desktop PC for business work as well as personal use, but the reason for change is due to the fact that I don’t need my PC for business work anymore, it will be purely for personal use, so just typical browsing, streaming, a few bits of software and that’s it really.
Just something that’s got a decent processor and decent RAM will suit me tbh! I’d be open to a touchscreen laptop as I’m aware a lot of laptops have it built in now but I’m not too fussed about that. |

I’ve decided to sell my desktop PC and get myself a laptop as I’m on-the-go a lot more these days but I’ve been out of the tech/laptop loop for quite a while and I’m wondering if anyone has any laptop recommendations?
I’m only looking for something cheap, up top £300-£400 and it doesn’t necessarily need to be fast or powerful, just a decent runner, decent processor with up to date features. I’ve looked st the Huawei models but they’re a bit pricey and I really don’t need to spend that much on a laptop!
Any help is appreciated TWTD’ers 👠|

Wilder has never faced anyone that can threaten him apart from Ortiz, and Ortiz had him wobbling but he wasn't fit enough to finish Wilder off.
I see alot less flaws in Fury than the rest tbh, but I do just wish they'd fight each other and resolve who is #1, there is also ALOT of money to be made in the process! |

Apologies, you are correct.
Of course, any heavyweight clash is high risk due to the power of every fighter, but I would like Wilder to hold the WBC belt, Whyte made mandatory because that's then a huge fight!
I just wish these top heavyweights would get it on! Any of the fights between that 4 mentioned are absolutely massive! |

Incredibly powerful and exciting, but just like with AJ, can he take a punch? Ortiz rocked him in their first fight and everyone else he's fought haven't exactly been knockout artists. Fury showed that with technical ability and a strong chin, Wilder can be beaten IF they can withstand the power.
Whyte/Wilder is a proper heavyweight clash though, both have power and as with most heavyweights, one punch can change the whole division. |
