Pretty sure baka would be allowed to leave now if anyone wants him. All the best to him

Inconsiderate of the Wednesday players, I've got beer in the fridge and everything, instead of watching the city i have been handed the dreaded task of flat pack, wish me luck.

I can't see Baka going anywhere whilst Walker (another 2-4 weeks) and Godden (6-10 weeks) are out injured. Personally I cant see Godden coming back and not breaking down again. Robins rushed him back last time.

I thought interacting with likeminded fans would be interesting. Then the personal insults started and I knew it was for me.

I misread that as Hamer and quite like the idea of him grilling burgers

You just know he'd do it best. Brazilian BBQ with some nice sides. Just occasional goes in too hard and fucks up a sausage though.

Love the Brazilian BBQ place that was open in Birmingham. Gus would be right on it

Those places smell great but you turn up and as a veggie realise your only option is the salad bar or a grilled pineapple.

That takes me back to my I-Spy book and you had to find a registration plate with each of the 2 letter codes that designated where the car was registered. We had a Ford Anglia Estate DWD 121C. I think 'WD' was a Coventry plate too.
Apologies for the geekiness

I think he took that tactical advice from Stealer's Wheel.

They told him Gyokeres to the right.

I don't remember WD. RW, WK and DU were also Coventry plates, I think. Most of the ones with N in them were Brum if I remember right. My Dad's first Hillman Minx (1938) that we got in 1952 from a great guy called Jim Smith who had a small garage on Gosford Street was CWK 881 but his second which we got in 1955 was LFK 440. FK was a Worcester number because he bought it from someone in Hagley. I bought my own first car in 1965 and paid £30 for a Ford Prefect. Haven't a clue what the number was. I suppose I must have known once!

Funny the things you can remember. I now spend hours looking for my glasses or my keys because I can't remember where I put them 10 minutes ago!

My first car was an Escort Mk1 which I bought off someone in Walsgrave - It was FHP 896L. HP was a Coventry plate too. I don't know why I remember these things either! I can't remember what I had for breakfast this morning!

Yep. First, second, and fourth (effectively, as there is a huge hole between two and three meaning that you had to thrash the nuts off it in second on any kind of incline). Gutless sidevalve engine, and vacuum operated windshield wipers which meant that they stop working when thrashing it in second up that hill (even with its optional vacuum tank).
Built like a bloody tank though, as dad demonstrated by flexing the roof quite alarmingly on his brand new '71 Escort, and comparing it to the Pop, which barely flexed.

He looks pretty good on that. Some decent finishes and seems to have a decent touch too.

He also looks like he's got good pace/acceleration and a willingness to take players on. Seems quite effective coming in from the left too so it might benefit him having a strike partner - with him as a LS and Walker/Biamou depending on fitness deployed as a RS.

Might need a few games to get match sharp. But those highlights look like he has some footballing ability.

I am feeling a bit more enthused than my first impressions of Kastaneer (even with his wonder goal) or Bakayoko.
