Retired sports hack. 40+ years of writing, broadcasting, editing. Current job title: Silly Grandad.
Part of prob for any club is that the ‘jury’ makes up mind very early and then stand in court calling the defendants sh*t in unison. Bit difficult to ‘give evidence’ in those circs. On data, BK was adamant it is only used for first ‘sifting’. But our absentee owner is a huge, resolute data fan.

I’m not the defence barrister. I’m the CPS saying we don’t have enough evidence.

I think several who’d looked up to it then got injured. Remember, when we signed Teemu, it was to play out wide with Rhodes in the middle. Also Sarge was incapable of hitting the prov barn door for a while. Too soon to judge this crop of signings.

I’d be interested to learn whether injuries (and in one case, I believe, a mental health crisis) have been worse than norm in the frenetic Championship. Daniel did 2 am & pm training. Sounds like new guy will do tougher training. These are among the few football variables which can be controlled.

It’s inevitable he would answer similar questions with his own clichés: like Ministers put up to do the morning round of TV & radio. But he said some interesting stuff, esp to Connor. Pre-season wasn’t right, ‘availability’ (injuries) has been poor, outside consultants used to look at those (more …)

The flesh lots of Lynn were my downfall.

I’m not at all. But without the riots, he wouldn’t have done immediate porridge — and (definitely without minimising his behaviour) the allegations against the N Andrew allegations are much further along the scale of seriousness (and he’s not been convicted) yet the peril he faces is minimal).

Meanwhile, Nonce Andrew, accused of serially sexually abusing a trafficked child, might possibly have to move into a smaller home.
And one of these men is seen to be proof of ‘broken Britain’. But it’s not Andrew Albert Christian Edward Saxe-Coburg and Gotha?

An oil-rich nation, desperate to sports-wash their reputation happened.

Not making any huge point by posting the clipping. Just interesting.

We’d have found ourselves at war with several other countries.

Very wise.

It’s an outstanding piece. Don’t worry about loons who read the headline.

My writing’s available for the waffle. 🤓

My point is Labour have tightened the process and, were she a Tory minister, she’d still be in place.
