Where Should The Tram Extend To?
abbeyedges replied to SheffieldForum's topic in Sheffield News & Discussions
Extend it down the Abbeydale Road spine but wherever possible have the tracks running over the River Sheaf and therefore avoid upsetting the road system. -
What Should Happen To Debenhams?
abbeyedges replied to SheffieldForum's topic in Sheffield News & Discussions
Let Urban Splash take it over and whatever plans they had for Coles to then implement at Debenhams. Knock Coles down and make it a huge entertainment space. Two birds killed with one stone. Two threads on the Sheffield Forum merged. Jobs a good'un. -
Calls For Snooker To Move From The Crucible
abbeyedges replied to Pyrotequila's topic in General Sports Chat
Some of the theatre productions coming out of the Crucible are getting more positive publicity for the city than the snooker. May be it's time we said thanks Mr Hearn for everything but we are moving on now. We hope you will all enjoy China. Give us an opportunity of promoting Sheffield as the 'Home of the Beautiful Game'. It's a much larger world wide audience. -
No more replays from the 1st Round proper due to the demands of European Football. How can teams from League 1, League 2 and non-league playing in the 1st Round be causing a problem for European football?

Calls For Snooker To Move From The Crucible
abbeyedges replied to Pyrotequila's topic in General Sports Chat
This topic crops up every year. -
I think this was the guy that put in a sliding tackle (remember those) at the Kop end at the Lane and if he hadn't have won the ball then he would now be serving a prison sentence for man slaughter

I will be re-newing mine, I want to continue using the season card - hope it's available.

It's a shame it's moved from its spiritual home of Lowedges Park

Why Are Burnley Immune From Pss Taking And Slagging Off
abbeyedges replied to monzaman's topic in Sheffield Football
The pss taking continues. I cannot do a link but there's a new Paddy Power promotion that shows San Marino are looking to play the Blades in an effort to boost morale in the nation that continually loses matches. -
Why Are Burnley Immune From Pss Taking And Slagging Off
abbeyedges replied to monzaman's topic in Sheffield Football
Kompany is seen by many (media & pundits alike) as a Premier league icon. Wilder and Hecky before are not held in a similar light. Our goals against column (including 5 at Burnley) have also made us the butt of many jokes. The 'pundits' have applauded Kompany's Burnley for trying to play the right way (whatever that means) and we haven't. We could realistically finish above Burnley. Would things change then? -

Do carveries generally work in city centres? -
Meadowhead New Football/Rugby Ground Plus More
abbeyedges replied to bassett one's topic in Sheffield News & Discussions
I have a great deal of respect for Richard Tims the Sheffield FC chairman. For many years he has created a strategic plan and has followed it. It puts to shame the actions of the current owners of our 2 professional clubs. I very much doubt the Prince or Mr Chansiri would know the definition of a strategic plan. The journey for Sheffield FC obviously started way back in 1857. This is a new chapter for the club. Many of us have commented before about the lack of publicity Sheffield City Council have given over to the Sheffield FC story and its unique and famous place in the history of football. I would urge Richard Tims to consider approaching a TV production company to create a programme over the next few years as the new facility is built and Sheffield FC returns to our city. I hope this opportunity of telling the world about the club that gave us all the 'Beautiful Game' is not lost. -
School Fines - Discrimination Against The Family Unit
abbeyedges replied to Resident's topic in General Discussions
We have had the 6 week holiday structure for generations. It needs changing. Many in the tourism industry has to make the most of a 6 week window. If the 6 week holiday (there is an argument to reduce it to 4) was spread over more weeks in tghe summer across the country then this would give the tourism industry a larger window in which to operate and offer more competitively prices accordingly. Alternatively reduce the 6 weeks holiday to 4 and then allow parents the opportunity of using 2 weeks in a given school year to take an affordable family holiday.
