    Brembo have for some time gone downmarket, and offered a cheapo range of brake parts. The Brembos at Eurocarparts are little different to the others

    that ECP sell, except they have a Brembo badge on the boxes.

    Can't disagree with this. 

    Have a look on ebay for delphi disks and pads, can't go wrong with them and you'll get an idea of price.

    Just got a quote for new discs and pads all round for over £1000 from a place I've went to for many years, they are seen as a more specialist place, but their prices have been really rocketing since Covid / cozzy livs (sorry) anyway went onto euro car parts and priced up all the parts I need, plus fitting option for around £530 the fitting cost was like £96 on the website, which you just pay when the work is done apparently, this seems really low and worried they might not be that good, but googling the reviews seem like they are pretty decent (4.8 stars) 

    Not sure whether to go for it or not or phone about some places. Anyone used the euro car parts and fitting option before? Can't imagine they'd use poor garages since it's selected through their website.

    What make/ model of vehicle is it?  Also what brand of disks and pads did you pick from ECP?

    Tempted to make a first visit to Raydale on Saturday for my football fix.

    Half tempted as well tbh, braves vs Cowdenbeath is pretty meaningless but having played both Gretna and Edinburgh recently it could be a close match so giving it serious consideration

    The team has underperformed no doubt. However will probably be a 5 place improvement and I think 10 points more at this point. 
    Same again next season would be big step forward. Wont be easy as a few Clubs will continue to outspend us.

    No parachute or league Cup cash, going to be a tough one, just need to hope we get players who just click with each other and a manager who can make it happen. Hopefully EK go up to balance the league a bit more. 

  5. Getting rid of another manager would be wrong IMO, at this level they are still learning, let's see what happens next year once the squad is settled and well rested. 

  6. I'd rather have no games against b teams, also wouldn't mind if we withdrew from the LL Cup to save some cash.

    Wrong decision made, as was not getting the fans who contribute to the club at least have the chance to state their opinions formally to the board.

  7. Saw a video on YT saying vanguard had made available a load of funds to UK investors so have moved all my pension into VHVG as the fee is 0.12% instead of the fund it was in which was 0.22% or so.  It's basically the same fund but without the small caps.

    Decided to increase my pension contributions again as Rishi's NI cut comes into effect soon so putting that in my pension to get the tax relief and reclaim the rest via SA in April.

    Might be able to retire at 60 if I can keep the increases up in the next few years.

  8. Would be good to hear from someone on the board to confirm which way we voted and most importantly why.  If we did vote for B teams for another two seasons I'd be interested in knowing how we've went from 'no to b teams', to 'ah but the conference' to 'b teams, a great bunch of lads'.

    Were the CISS or similar canvased for any opinion?

    You should always have the ambition to get as high up the leagues as you can.

    Of course but that's dictated by capability which is typically decided by money. 

    I've enjoyed this season a lot better than getting beat 3-0 in the championship every week and then plummeting down the leagues.

    Would be nice to one day be in the Seaside League again but a bit of entertainment in the LL isn't too bad. 

    There's been some good games this season.
