@AmazingAccy @ASFCofficial @officalassc1 We should incorporate this into it.

@AmazingAccy @ASFCofficial @officalassc1 Plenty of green space to fill in around this image with football related stuff, but let's make sure that we include Doris. We wouldn't want to upset the neighbours...

[Dave Leonard @itbadger]

@ASFCofficial Let's blast out The Birdy Song on match days just before closing. Give them what they asked for.

@Wozzer1969 Just wanted to say thanks for making the change @Wozzer1969 . Today was immeasurably better, and much more enjoyable as a result. Just a shame that the lads couldn't grab a goal, but that'll come. Really appreciate your response to my request, as do those around me in C block.

[Dave Leonard @itbadger]

@Wozzer1969 Any chance of a sign to let people know, as habits have been formed already. Cheeky bugger, I know, always asking for more!

[Dave Leonard @itbadger]

@Wozzer1969 Fantastic, many thanks Warren, looking forward to seeing us score either side of half time! 🔴⚪

[Dave Leonard @itbadger]

@Wozzer1969 Much appreciated Warren, thanks again.

[Dave Leonard @itbadger]

@Wozzer1969 Completely understand that you are tied to fire strategy, but I'd invite you to join us either side of half time to experience the disruption. Thanks for taking the time to reply and investigate.

[Dave Leonard @itbadger]

@Wozzer1969 Thanks Warren. We've been told that it has to stay closed as it's a fire door, but surely having a member of door staff stood next to it is sufficient to ensure it is open if people need to get out, and closed if any fire needs to be compartmentalised.

@missionencode @WatergroveTrust @HarryJWake @learningdust I really enjoyed talking to Harry for this podcast. It was great to repay the favour from when he appeared on @learningdust and to see him developing into a force to be reckoned with. Check out the episode and let us know what you think.
