What on earth is the association between Crossgates and football? If Mr Edwards doesn't like the traditional colours of the Crossgates insignia, he could always move. Thing is it was reported by the YEP a short time before that that local LUFC fans may take umbrage to it, hence Gary's offer of a paint job. As much as I love LUAFC, I do find the thought of red gates rather trivial. Were it a sculpture outside ER for instance, then fine, but how can anyone get upset over a colour no where associated with football or any particular ground is beyond my ickle grey matter??

There is now a "Welcome to Cross Gates" sign on the roundabout close to The Gates.So now people can discuss if it should be Crossgates or Cross Gates ..

Could just a s easily be a Patriotic thought with St George in mind?But there is black too which brings it closer to Cross Gates.The Ordacity of more money let alone another, what around 13% is a vote loser - remember that when election time comes round and the reminder will be the hike on the Council Tax bill you won't be getting a pay rise to pay it with.I mentioned before, I'm sure a major gas main complex sits under the roundabout.....
