Could have donated the proceeds to charity/Moffs testimonial fund McAlister signed for another year. Meh Home cup games maybe getting played away from Somerset. Grim The way they’ve lifted it is the most effective way of ensuring that the ground they have remaining is as level as possible as that’s what they’ll be laying the new turf on. Taking it off in a way to sell it would be a pain in the arse to ensure it was all level at the end. That’s my guess anyway. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fighter staffeln were organised into jagdgeschwader. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your correct in stating ''Jagdgescwader' relates to normal Luftwaffe fighter units... and fighter units designated as 'fighter escort' for bombers were termed Kampfgeschwader .....followed by Staffel designate. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the DKBs could sell a fcking carpet in patches to fans a few years back, I'm sure Robbo could have been out squaring some to sell in the shop 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
