According to the great god Google Maps:

City Ground to station = 1 mile
iPro Stadium to station = 0.7 mile
Welford Road to station = 0.6 mile

Shame as I was hoping for the iPro Stadium in Derby. It holds 3000 more than the City Ground (33.5K compared to 30.5K) and is nearer to Derby railway station (about the same distance Welford Road is from Leicester railway station) than the City Ground is to Nottingham railway station.

This is now nothing more than a witch hunt. It's plainly obvious someone at World Rugby is determined to punish this Englishman regardle...

If he sussed out a particularly tedious training routine, we could go with I CRACK DRILL CHORE.

He was only on a three month contract.

... however, if you have not been on the forum under a different ID in the meantime, then someone was doing a very good impersonation of you - it certainly had me and Bill (RIP) convinced. Imitation is meant to be the sincerest form of flattery so they say, therefore coloured me flattered. I know i...

Pardon? I am the original BJ. However, I've lost my login details for that account so I've had to adopt a slightly changed name.

I'm planning to meet ZSF before the match.
