Imagine the gates opening and the big sprint across Moor Park to be on the front row. After the event, organisers commented "we've never seen so many people move so fast. It's almost like they've done it before...."

Hope you're right mate. I stopped short of saying it, and thought we'd see him in the POs if there, but on reflection if he is half ready then NC needs to have a look at him and judge where he is.

I was in the same college class as Glynn James's lad. Hello Ian. Derek Spence is a regular at the club I bowl for, great bloke.

He mentioned in that good interview he did before Barnsley that he's back building it up. Doing a lot of swimming apparently, which will be useful if it continues to rain like it has. Could there be a surprise appearance on the bench Saturday?

I just played at Poulton Youth, rather than for them. A measure of my incompetence can be judged by them not having a problem with me playing at least one year longer than the age limit allowed. Finished around 1980-81

Posh have got our number this year, to an extent. So I'd sooner play them in one game rather than two, I couldn't see them not hitting a good gear over both.

Yep I agree with Dave. Extended and regular sessions in nets, and play the CJ at quarterback role when we have a corner.

Plus two from last season

If you're good enough, which I certainly wasn't, the Ray Stewart method every time. Hard and high in a corner. Very hard in fact. Anyone buggering about with fancy penalties should be given community service as a bare minimum, up to a custodial sentence in the more important games. With...

I'm not worried about it from the pov of Oxford playing them. Could be the best thing with Stevenage already virtually out of it.

Exactly SATs. The fact a black bloke says it in the historical setting, I'm interested to see if the modern censors treat that the same as a dogs name.

I guess me not knowing those games were tonight tells you everything!

A recommendation, if you haven't seen it Glory, true story about the first recruited black regiment in the American civil war. One of my favourites, and follows the reality faithfully, drawing on the diaries and letters home by it's commanding officer. Film4, 9pm. I am left wondering how...

Not ironic Max, absolutely sodding frustrating. You're right about all those games. Just to take Carlisle as an example, after 5 mins gone I was thinking we were in 5-0 territory. I was already on the M6 by the final whistle, I was that bored.
