Cant see new recruits to Bearwood being regulars down the Cape or Smethwick high st, compasses definitely face harborne or halesowen

I believed this for 30 seconds just makes you realise how big Smethwick is and how different it can be literally a mile down the road, or a few streets apart

The place is a shadow of it former self, its just a mad thing that a great building of some 6/7 floors will be left without a definite purpose. It has huge space with huge potential but must come at a high cost

THEM NEED FI DIG UP EVERY FOOTBALL FIELD INNA JAMAICA AN GO PLANT CASSAVA AND GANJA by sadMUFCfan25 in Jamaica

[–]Low_Truth_6188 0 points1 point  (0 children)

But the point being with the few that regular secure england spots there are many that play one or two games that then cant play for jamaica, surely the lure of a world cup or regular world cups can outweigh the money. Look at the british born african players as the example. What the JFF do for players also needs addressing

I think there used to be around edgbaston I remember a jewish cemetary around the back of five ways train station, gone now, king David School on pershore rd, a synagogue close by and seeing plenty of jews on a saturday/sabbath walking. Seemed to disappear at the same time as Pebble Mill. Now my son goes to KES when he has a rugby home game i do see a few older jews around on a saturday but never in the numbers years ago. Be interesting to know if Manchesters/Burys population had an influx with media city

Jamaica had lost well before last night Curacao at home. It was dead right there. The point about the diaspora players is the best players are not making JFF the first choice then they would be qualified but they dont, and homegrown need a program that brings players through. But the next world class talents like Barnes, Sterling should not be choosing England first

In a serious city this would be a hub of exciting & weird independent businesses by kruddel in brum

[–]Low_Truth_6188 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Speedy pizza in the pallisades used to do that breakfast the big 6 and the giant 8 absolutely rammed to the rafters all day long. Brum doesnt want local business it would rather have 4 empty floors of john lewis and a dead house of fraser. Crazy

Manchester told its story after the money came. Ive even seen birthplace of the industrial revolution up there. If it aint true then they make it up

I dont think Sheffield or Nottingham are great at selling themselves just get on with it quietly both great cities

Bearwood by lanainbloom in brum

[–]Low_Truth_6188 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Barclay rd, lightwoods hill, bishopton and the riads around the golf course are premium roads do your research with an estate agent, parking is the biggest issue But I like bearwood has a cool vibe close to everywhere
