Kinda is really... 5 minute walk and if your desperate to go it's not gonna be a nice 5 minutes... Hopefully by opening the toilets won't be shut though...

So now we're gonna have 6 second videos of people's food? CAN'T WAIT!

Problem is, it was a needless action, as the ref will add on time for timewasting, making the entire premise of it pointless... Kicking out is the issue and it's something you wouldn't want to see anywhere... Hazard wanted the ball to get to the keeper quicker yes, but when the kid went on top of the ball, should've called the ref over to sort it out, not attempt to kick the ball from underneath, since it was asking for trouble and that's what he got... I doubt it'll go on and on like the racism stuff with Chelsea, probs a few games added onto the 3 matches and we can but hope that is that...

Probably if it happened to another player he would still have been sent off, because the kick (regardless of where he aimed it) was a lash out of frustration, hence was deemed as violent conduct, any sensible ref would send off any player for doing the same thing... The year gets worse and worse for Chelsea, but after the way Di Matteo was treated (and the whole Clattenburg incident, which defo hasn't helped Chelsea's image), I would say it's deserved any failings of this side of the season... Not European Champions for much longer though either...

Show me a team which doesn't do that when winning... (Palace aside, we're too nice)

:lol:

The newer Huss Topspins ALREADY go backwards

Let's not forget there's also the Tunnel of Piss Servant's Entrance which could potentially be used... But hopefully by March the majority of construction will have been finished, let alone the repainting of Blivvy...

Eventually, we'll look back on this announcement and laugh...

At least it's a bit different from "Shipping Containers LOL"... And it's been what, two days?

*COUGH*Colossus*COUGH*INFERNO*COUGH* I would not be surprised if there were random soft openings (a la Disney/American parks) as it gets to a relatively finished state... Guess it depends on what the park want to do when it nears completion, but they won't be exact and it'll be a case of luck if people get caught up in it... I look forward to Jonathon Ross riding it in front of everyone waiting on opening day though...

Source is Wikipedia... Sooooo that doesn't prove or disprove anything about such preview days actually happening...

Scott Pollard's post

Might be of some interest to those who are interested in Outlaw Run (not me) or budding Engineers (me)...

The what? Aerial photo from "Tatenhill Aviation" Facebook... No blue boxes either!

If they put in new Vekoma Roller Skater trains, that would be much better, as they are extremely comfy... Aside from that, they would probably be better off bulldozing it with the Arena (and Storm Drain) and putting it a coaster there...

Also, Bradford

A very big "if" when it comes to Thorpe though... Infrastructure does not mean high numbers of Fastrack either...

COME ON YOU BANTAMS!

Backwards Oblivion?

Being thrown into those Intamin restraints </3

I did, because I didn't think it would happen... And as such to prove my point I gave my reasons which I think were relatively thought out and acceptable as an opinion as to why I felt ANY backwards B&M would happen in any way shape or form... I have been proved wrong, but it doesn't mean I don't think two of the three rides won't be a success (Hollywood Dream is the only one I am curious about) for their own reasons... Isn't the whole point of a forum to have people of differing opinions? It's clear people agreed with me that it was unlikely to happen, I was just the loudest because I have nothing better to do at work...

Cos everyone saw B&M making not just one but THREE of their coasters go backwards? Yeah I got it wrong, but I am nowhere near the only person who doubted that it would happen...
