All players go through bad spells. Hamer kept getting booked for silly things, Sheaf had a spell where he kept dithering and giving the ball away and panicking in front of goal, Bidwell looked cumbersome for a while etc. Some people defended Waghorn. Allen has been generally rubbish for a while...

App working mid air but slow af.

Not just me then. I’m on an Emirates flight, paid my money to get the WiFi and IFollow - can’t get anything but you lot of dangers.

Ady’s Chelsea note book and YouTube basically.

His book is a good read. Went to Hibs having turned down QPR, then Port Vale (who were champ level) then back to Hartlepool as player/manager for a few years. Made reasonably good money and invested in property. Sensible. His gripe was us signing Speedie. Houch thought that he should have...

I’m sure he made £28000 in 87 with his bonuses and was given a brand new Peugeot? Grad salary was about 12k in 1997. 1987 would have been less.

Wilson 6 Not sure he knows where to stand for a long throw but his distribution was ok and a couple of decent saves. Not-on Coffee 4 Not-on form, not-on wavelength and should be Not-on the team. We have better options for RWB than him. There’s a reason Rotherham dropped him and we can see...

To be fair, 3 good chances that we should have buried. Doyle missing his feet first half. Gyok just a millisecond short first half. Gyok hitting it over in the second.

Norton Coffee - rubbish. Panzo - rubbish Allen - weak

Watching in India right now. Crystal clear.

You should be so lucky.

Norton off - Eccles on Allen off - Borroughs on Panzo off - Maguire on Move things around Bidwell to LCB, Borroughs to LWB but tight on Albrighton Maguire just behind Vik

One thing that irks: We get a throw in at around half way in the opponent half, we often try to backwards take on halfway and pass back ~ ie lose yards instead of gain. Often the opponents press our throw-ins back and Wilson ends up under pressure. All other teams seem to steal yards, often...

Norton Cuffy is not a very good player. Panzo is out of form.

Have in mind what MR said a month ago: “Categorically, Vik is going nowhere in January” (Or similar) If a deal has been done that he’s off somewhere in the summer and pre-contract has been signed then that would make sense. Maybe tied in with the SISU sale? £30m already agreed for Vik to go...

£1m release fee in his contract apparently. I think we need to do a bit of gazumping. Would suit us.

He’s our only real slight hope of scraping the play-offs. Our squad is more competitive with McNally in and Fadz due back so why not be ambitious? If we give Vik a raise of whatever we were paying Waghorn then that’ll be good business.

So if a ticket was 22p and is now (say) £22, the transfer fee of £90000 we got for Gould that year would be £9m? Or is that not how old money worked?

SISU didn’t have the money. They signed an exclusivity arrangement which stopped them constructively talking to people like Doug. SISU had put what basically was a “come and buy us and the stadium” article out in the Times. Their intent was clear. Mad Storey pitched and locked SISU into an...

Looking back, so many mistakes, so many idiots. Out of the main characters, what was the worst mistake of each of them? Joy for not buying the Higgs share back for pittance and probably paying that amount several times over in rent and lost revenue? Igwe and saying Sky Blue Sam was too fat...
