Whitey Grandad

Why do you reach that conclusion? He’s a professional footballer. That means he plays football in order to earn money. He went for the best offer that he could get. It really is that simple.

Finally, you have put your finger on the answer, albeit unwittingly. It’s precisely because we choose not to compete that the club is sustainable.

Selling Ings was a no-brainer. We can’t look at this one transfer in isolation. Give it until the end of the transfer window and then step back and take a look. Players come, players go, new heroes come along.

But if players are on the bench they are not having a night off in front of the tele.

The scientific conclusion might be that we should have opened up a month earlier

Likewise. I have been building a small wall in the garden and I have only just picked up the emails. To be honest I don’t want to go now. My grandson can’t get the evening off so it would be just me and I don’t fancy queuing up to sit at the back of some corner. I might ring up and ask for a refund. I have a wall to finish.

You should see the shit that comes out of the bottom!

I looked at them but 'my' seats had already been sold. I shall probably walk across them in my muddy boots before settling down in what will be my new home, even if it is only for one season. My grandson wanted to go to these games so I bought them last Thursday when there was plenty of choice. Now it turns out that he can't get his shifts changed

I've just had a look and only two seats in Block 30 are available in the Kingsland. Block 43 in the Northam has plenty.

I'll be there tomorrow. I shall be trying out my new seat

1.2 miles, 27 minutes according to Google Maps.

What date is this? I ask because I'm thinking of booking a holiday and I'd hate to miss it.

Er... What's Facebook?

It’s typical of his refusal to take responsibility for his actions.

In my childhood during the 1950s it was quite common to see unfortunate children wearing leg irons and to hear of people being in an ‘iron lung’ was also common. FD Roosevelt is a famous victim of the disease having contracted it in 1921.

Of McCarthy or the ball?

You think his Poirot was strange. We saw him play Lady Bracknell in The Importance of Being Ernest at the Mayflower. He was quite good.

Nothing silly about it. It's from the Bible. Luke 4:23 to be pedantic. It's worth a read sometime.

And has a tendency to give away penalties.

I’ve never found the plastic seats to be uncomfortable but I do have a plentifully padded posterior.

Grown adults? I see no evidence of that.

And padded seats. Don’t forget the padded seats.

Spoiler alert! Well that’s ruined this season for me before it’s even begun:(

From those two examples Che seems to have learnt a bit of subtlety with his finishes.

You do realise that when Ron says 'jabbed' he's not talking about a vaccination?
