It's Nick's fault, he's the administrator. ;)

6 to 7 weeks would, ironically take us to around the Burnley game on 8th October. That would leave 9 games before the WC break. Considering he was forecast to be out until after the world cup, that would not be too bad.

They did

Strange how the bookies have us 8th favourite for promotion https://www.oddschecker.com/football/english/championship/promotion

At the moment none of them are accurate

It's not too bad when you are up there, it's going up the spiral ladder around the outside that's a bit nerve-racking if you don't like heights

We don't really have reserves, as we have very limited storage capacity, we hold enough gas typically for 4 or 5 winter days. https://www.theguardian.com/business/2021/sep/24/how-uk-energy-policies-have-left-britain-exposed-to-winter-gas-price-hikes

It's the Merit order, This is an interesting read https://www.goodenergy.co.uk/why-does-the-price-of-gas-drive-electricity-prices-including-renewables/

It's compicated, part of the reason is the competition for gas globally due to re-emergence of industry post COVID, but by far the biggest reason is Russia, not just their policy on supply, but the desire of some countries to wean themselves of dependency on Russian gas. If you know of any...

As I said, no-one has any idea what energy prices will be then. Don't you think it's strange that a week or so ago they were predicting £4266 by January, now it's £4799 according to that sensationalist article. A very precise figure considering it's complete guesswork, and totally contradicts...

Where did you here that? No-one has the slghtest idea what wholesale energy prices are going to look like in 8 months time. Even the quoted £4200 in January is complete negative scenario guesswork.

If we can get Sheaf in there we can't miss out Gareth Bale

I wouldn't get too despondent yet, the point at Sunderland is looking like quite a good result now. Millwall are quite fancied by the bookies and are the type of team we usually struggle against. Yesterday's result feels worse than it should because we were 2 up and cruising, but I think we got...

I doubt we could arrange it in anything like acceptable time. For a start any ground we choose, there is bound to be some fixture conflicts.

I said in post 997 back on 6th August, this was a potential disaster for us. With the weather we have had to compound the problem it's not going to change any time soon.

looks like the CBS pitch
