You cant even go to see a movie now without some idiot putting a bullet in you. You are much more likely to get killed by your own countryman than you are a terrorist in America.

A "crisis" would be starting the season without any CHs but by my count we still have 5 who could play there. Still there are always some who will make a mountain out of a molehill. Apparently we were looking to bring in one anyway and RK says maybe that will be two now so perhaps one on loan? Not quite meltdown material just yet.

I am just an old fashioned boy. I like to see the first choice CH wearing the 5 shirt.

No, it does seem an odd one.

Spanish media linking us, Stole and Everton with young Barca winger Adama Traore (not to be confused with Lallana or Yaya)

I know numbers don't mean as much now but still find it strange that Florin was given the no 5 shirt - especially as he wont be playing for a while.

Okay, but it is a strange question don't you think? Really, when you woke up this morning did you ask yourself, I wonder if we will sell out against Vitesse? I didn't. I asked myself cereals or toast? I wasnt worried before, but now I know these things are an issue, I find myself worrying if we will sell our away allocation against Norwich this season. What do you think?

So we have gone to worrying about players leaving and not buying a replacement for Toby yet to worrying about if we will sell out in a Europa qualifier. What next? Should we worry about the weather forecast for the game?

Gardos has the no 5 shirt so make of that what you will!

I see Blair is warning Labour about lurching to the left. No wonder people confused him with the Tories.

The death of the Labour Party started in earnest with Blair and "New" Labour. After the re-branding they have no where else to go. Going back to their roots will scare off Middle England and the Tories seem to have the middle ground sown up. Labour could well go the way of the LibDems. Not good for politics and not good for the country. The new Labour leader has a tough job.

Well out of order. She was probably aiming for a new set of wheels.

He got a lot of stick when he started, as did Morgan.

That would do it.

If Jack Cork is as good for Swansea as Morgan was for us, how come that none of the big clubs have been in for him? He would cost a lot less than Morgan. Good as he is, he is not that good.

And what makes you think we wont get one?

Not sure how you get "caught napping" out of a player deciding he would rather sign for another club but I guess you will always look for the downside.

Oaky Alps, I give in. Life is too short. And I am sure you are right, the club are doing nothing about finding a replacement for Toby and we are all going to hell in a handcart.

The Aussies get into the players minds and out psyche them. We have to be mentally stronger but I cant see that happening anytime soon after the Lords debacle.
