    If Saint David's can be a city, with only 1,600 people, I don't see why we can't be. Just need to crowdfund ourselves a cathedral and we're sorted.

    If you mean the football club, then technically we're not tarn. Or city, rovers, united, wanderers, athletic, rangers, argyll, albion or anything. We're just Barnsley. I never call us tarn, I always say Reds.

    If you mean the town, well we could still say tarn, but just do it amongst ourselves, in secret. :)

    Great read that and a coincidence that I should read a Washington Post article the day after watching an excellent Netflix film called "The Post". Meryl Streep plays the owner of the paper and its based on real events surrounding the downfall of Richard Nixon. Recommended viewing.

    Good read. Except this bit:
    "Dike’s ascent comes just 15 months after, as a sophomore, he helped Virginia advance to the 2019 College Cup final. He then turned pro and was drafted fifth overall by Orlando."
    Which might as well be in Chinese.

    Don't need one mate, or a University. You need:-

    • A minimum population of 300,000;
    • A record of good local government;
    • A “local metropolitan character”.
    We're screwed.

    I like the way Dike has helped us 'vault' up the table and that we're looking at a 'play off berth.'
