Dancers is still open in the town centre, one of the rare shops that can genuinely be described as a "gents outfitters".

I have to buy my son's school uniform from Dancers co incidentally (as I work in Halesowen)and you can only get the uniform from Dancers. I have to buy his sports kit from the equally 'traditional' or old fashioned if you like Ron Flowers of Wolverhampton.

The Pound shop in Kenilworth closed down when they opened a 99p shop.

That 99p shop will be in trouble when a 98p shop opens in the town.

I'd swear that there used to be a 98p shop in The Pallisades

It may have its place in a Birmingham shopping centre, but not in a place like Kenilworth. There are too many snobs around here to be seen in a 98p shop.

I repeat - the £2 charge is under review. If this is how exclusive news is treated on here I shall consider taking it elsewhere in future.

If its anything like your last* exclusive news, you should keep it to yourself!



[Shudders from memory of Dave announcing we'd signed Emile fucking Heskey]

I also said we were signing Darren Bent and sacking Alex McLeish. Just call me Scoop.

Didn't you also break the fact that we were actually, seriously, genuinely considering - and I still can't believe this ever happened - appointing Alex McLeish?

A day which will live in infamy.



The evidence is clear. There is no need for a dunking, burn the witch!

"It's under review" - Paul Faulkner half an hour ago.

I see on the OS they have got rid of the £2 charge for cash in person payments after listening to the fans

Fair play

It should never have been implemented in the first place.

True but credit to them for listening and deciding on common sense. There's so much positivity around the club right now, it would have been a shame to have a return to a 'them and us' mentality.

I can't believe Dancers is still going.  It was quite 'traditional' when I was at Halesowen College a hundred years ago.

This thread has seen a very positive outcome. We have put Halesowen firmly on the map.

A sensible decision by the club.

But I'm still going to the Grove tomorrow.

Well, I had to chain myself to the railings to get the chance.

Well done to the club for listening and removing the cash booking fee, but they really shouldn't have tried it on in the first place.
We can guarantee tickets will now go up by £2 next season though I don't see how can even justify not reducing them following the huge increase in TV revenue.

Everyone makes mistakes. Accepting that you've made one and putting it right and, more importantly, learning from it is what is important.
