We need gun control yesterday, but also, school emergency plans often don't include the needs of disabled people. Even for things like fire drills, what is planned is unacceptable.

@chezdon.co.uk if you dont win this match on Monday night against Coventry , go to the nearest beach and bury your head in the sand and return next season . Brighton have a much better chance of reaching Europe than Tottenham. Has some put a spell on Tottenham for the last few seasons .

35y 141d - Bournemouth's Adam Smith (35y 141d) is the oldest English outfielder to make their debut in major European competition since Reginald Pickett for Ipswich Town against Milan in November 1962 (35y 317d). Perseverance.
