The idea of Tavares starting when I’m not convinced he’d get a game at Port Vale.

I’ll have a score on Matt smith

FFS, forgot the team selection drama.

We had a rare child free afternoon (and evening!) and I was heading to - and had agreement (!) - the local micropub with an iPad to watch the game. Even more of a treat as I’m on a health kick so not drinking much at the minute.

However, babysitters dropped out just as we were leaving to drop the kids off. So instead we’re heading to the cinema to watch Migration and pay about £50 for fruits shoots and popcorn they won’t eat, with zero chance of me watching the game.

I thought that before I said it but he's right footed though! However it will be more like Eccles holding the right side with Lati methinks

I agree.


We aimed high. We brought in quality players. Could have done with a few more but its more difficult to bring in quality players than space fillers.

Loans? I remember Robins saying how much better it is having our own players over loans that leave at the end of each season.

I think having loans makes sense to add squad depth to cover for injuries, suspensions etc. Wish we’d used it more this season like in prior seasons. If we managed to get promoted we can hopefully convert those loans to perms.

If Kelly and Godden are starting I might not bother watching.

Why, we'd still have more than enough to beat Stoke, and giving them 45 mins will save others for the tougher games like WBA away.
That's what squads are for isn't it?

Nearly time to cut the grass. Not allowed to use machinery between 12 and 2 so people can have dinner in peace. Hopefully get it done within a couple of hours so I can have a laugh at the meltdowns when the team is announced before I settle down for the game.

Of course 1hr up on us!

In practice it’s a couple of extra games for a not small amount of cash.

Can you read?

I've stated quite clearly he wont tell me this week, other than it will be a meltdown at 2pm

Shall we run through your past history Mr 'Vik is going nowhere'?

And Steven Schumacher is the Stoke boss obviously Victor Meldrew

Yes and yes. But simultaneously I’m sure there’s at least a little pressure for a top 6 finish too. However,

Struggling squad + cup + league congestion - necessary additions = breakdown.

Our playoff challenge will not rest or fall based on some extra FA Cup ties. The problem really is that we recruited for 5-3-2 and then had to tear that up once it was clearly not going to work for the players we signed.

Would welcome a break for Sakamoto - there’s a boring joke to be made there.

We don’t want another burnt out player.

Is that why you stopped posting then? Not because all of your bullshit got caught out in the end?
