Working to improve the understanding of cost of rail infrastructure and to increase the value for money from investment in market

@AllThingSkyBlue There were several scouts there tonight looking at Darnell Furlong a full back who can certainly tackle well without alarming the referee or drawing his attention, yes the scouts from Harlequins, Exeter Chiefs and Leicester Tigers were very impressed with his performance.

#goldenwhistles I am interested on comments about cost. Are we referring to operating cost, capital cost of construction or cost of infrastructure maintenance? UK construction cost is between 25 and 35% higher than comparable countries with similar timetable needs,

Excellent result for Coventry City at Swansea City but a special mention of the performance of referee Sam Allison and his assistants Messrs Dallison and Singh Gill who ensured the game flowed with the minimum of disruption

Not just in the Coventry Motor Museum but also at the entrance to the British Ambassador’s residence in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.

@LewisJWarner Lynda, may we discuss this? I had severe doubts about Andy Street’s programme. You may remember I was asked in 2023 to review the programme by Transpirt for the Midlands, which subsequently withdrew the invitation on Mr.Street’s insistence. Michael

@charlie_suth @theJeremyVine @Coventry_City @GaryLineker @alanshearer @MicahRichards @jjenas8 They didn’t complain because a goal had been given. No matter now a real football club has been “beaten” by one the cheap nasty branded franchised clubs, which make up the so called “top” of the Pfemier League.

@charlie_suth @theJeremyVine @Coventry_City @GaryLineker @alanshearer @MicahRichards @jjenas8 Did you see any United players complain? you! No because it was a penalty.

[Michael Byng @mbpcworldwide]

@KernowChris @theJeremyVine @Coventry_City @GaryLineker @alanshearer @MicahRichards @jjenas8 VAR is killing the game, the sooner it goes the better. It wasn’t offside and Man Utd know it.

[Michael Byng @mbpcworldwide]

@Chris_Elliot84 @theJeremyVine @Coventry_City @GaryLineker @alanshearer @MicahRichards @jjenas8 It wasn’t offside see the footage. If anyone wants to have a bitch about Man Utd players, let’s start with the goalkeeper who should have been booked for time wasting long before he was booked. He should have been on the field and United should have been made to play with 20 men.

@charlie_suth @theJeremyVine @Coventry_City @GaryLineker @alanshearer @MicahRichards @jjenas8 It wasn’t- look at video posts online. Game spoiled by a gutless referee who didn’t stand by his on field decision and a morally corrupt VAR official. Life doesn’t operate with 20/20 hindsight

@AllThingSkyBlue We appear to have a death wish! When I see our quality if I only we had the passion of the kick & rush outfit at Ipswich,

[Michael Byng @mbpcworldwide]

@AllThingSkyBlue Missed chances, not helped by an appalling referee, Gavin Ward, usual incompetent performance allowing Norwich to kick lumps out of Tats in the first 20 minutes, without awarding fouls, then pulling us back to the touch line for our free kick, when we were 2 on 1 with the keeper.

[Michael Byng @mbpcworldwide]

@bazzabannan25 Well spoken - thank you!

[Michael Byng @mbpcworldwide]

@TnsCov Typical of the incidents in a good game, very nestlu spoiled by an incompetent referee

[Michael Byng @mbpcworldwide]

@FlywheelMedia1 At £3.9 bn it is incredibly overpriced, beset by unnecessary procurement methods and a wasteful form of contract.

[Michael Byng @mbpcworldwide]

@Anthony_Hornsby Beaten by a very ordinary team, to which we paid far too much respect, if we have converted the penalty we could well have won in the second half

[Michael Byng @mbpcworldwide]

@AllThingSkyBlue I thought he had a decent game, given his lack of service and support from midfield and the wing backs in the first half. He is improving week by week and was, in my opinion, unlucky to be substituted

[Michael Byng @mbpcworldwide]

@SRichardBowker I will provide them to you later today,
