I work in a property related industry and mostly see senior management and then various approaches such as first come, first served, booking the spaces in way in advance or those who cosy up to security/facility management and secure spaces for themselves (which is hugely common in big organisations).

Buer wrote: » Not really a myth. Some of the state bodies have pretty decent ratios of parking spaces to staff. The older sites in particular; IDA, ESB, An Bord Pleanála etc.

I never got the impression (until the last 1-2 episodes) that there was anything remotely reciprocal from Jamie towards her. The Tormund storyline is just thrown away in 2 minutes and he's off with one of the servants instantly. It was a two fingered "Yeah, whatever" to the development that has gone on for a couple of seasons. There were other things that disappointed me more. A massive fleet nearby isn't spotted from the air? That was just silly. Euron is just a crap bad guy who comes into it from nowhere and just randomly pops up to make massive impacts on the story line.

They've built through their academy and some very astute signings. Frenkie De Jong is already moving to Barca and De Ligt will have every top club in Europe after him. This was their chance to make the final before the side is picked apart.
Clegg wrote: » I'll never forgive United for selling Blind. He's had a brilliant CL campaign for Ajax. He isn't a top class athlete, but makes up for it with excellent positioning. He's also so cool in possession and an asset when you want to build attacks from the back. Put the right system in place and you don't have to worry about his lack of athleticism. He was a decent CB under LvG, prone to the odd howler when faced with a pacy attacker, but he federally played well. But when we changed managers we got rid of him sharpish because he wasn't a monster wall in defence. Now we're left with Smalling, Jones, Bailly and Ashley Young. Lads who sh1t themselves when asked to play a possession based game.

That said I thought it was well and truly tie over at HT. Amazing drama Ajax will be sore for a long time, their injury time display was a sobering "how not to.." guide to game management. The one time they brought the ball to the corner flag they made an absolute shambles of it and instead of wasting valuable seconds throughout they appeared insistent on chasing another goal, with disastrous consequences. They're a very light weight side and to be honest if Spurs had a fit Kane I think they would have progressed comfortably over the 2 legs. It sets up an intriguing final. Spurs were very unlucky not to take a point from Anfield a few weeks ago and I think we can forget Liverpool's performance on Tuesday - there's precious little chance they'll muster that sort of miraculous performance up in the pressure cooker of a Champions League final. I could see it being a very cagey encounter, similar to the final last year. Luckily for Liverpool they have the ever reliable VVD and Becker defending their line on this occasion. Spurs are maybe carrying one or two passengers too many for me to have full confidence in them. Alli looks a busted flush already in his career, while Trippier was a one hit wonder at the world cup. That said occasions like this can bring out the hero in players No prizes for guessing what the main subplot will be in the lead up, BT were already straight in on the act when interviewing Kane last night. Will he or won't he start?
