We are a sleeping giant, I've always thought that, and this might awaken it. Well done to everyone.

So they must have moved that colony of endangered newts then. Well done to the conservationists.

They can come and live at the bottom of our garden if it means we get a new stadium

Went down tonight to have a peek, started getting all excited
