2026-06-16 07:40:49 [py.warnings] WARNING: /root/.venv/lib/python3.12/site-packages/scrapy/core/spidermw.py:490: ScrapyDeprecationWarning: event_scrapers.spiders.freda_staire.FredAstaireSpider defines the deprecated start_requests() method. start_requests() has been deprecated in favor of a new method, start(), to support asynchronous code execution. start_requests() will stop being called in a future version of Scrapy. If you use Scrapy 2.13 or higher only, replace start_requests() with start(); note that start() is a coroutine (async def). If you need to maintain compatibility with lower Scrapy versions, when overriding start_requests() in a spider class, override start() as well; you can use super() to reuse the inherited start() implementation without copy-pasting. See the release notes of Scrapy 2.13 for details: https://docs.scrapy.org/en/2.13/news.html
