I hope he doesn't injure himself doing it. 🙂

Martin unfortunate not to get the win.

Uh oh! That vaccine hasn't been tested on fictional rodents! Can anyone save us from the 100ft rampage of... Whitey!... The Mouse That Walked Like A Man?!

I doubt anyone from the club will be speaking to Nuno tonight. He's being ghosted.

Wiki sez "Most consecutive league games without defeat – 23 (1 November 2008 – 7 March 2009)" They are on their way.

With Matsuki happy to go into central positions, we're able to have Leo supporting a very mobile trio with Azaz and Dobbin there too. I only caught the last 20 mins, right after QPR got one back. But we were in control pretty much right away, making sure we gave them scares at the back, and taking away any pressure from ourselves. Lots of late subs to save any tired legs. A nice goal from Wellington, who keeps reminding Manning to put in good performances, as he's decent. Mubama made a good run in the build up to it, which was good to see. 5th (but really second).

Thanks Christophe. Lovely goal from Abu. Like your article on Rudy Mater, it shouldn' t be forgotten how difficult a far away move can be, not least in the highly competitive world of football. Many youngsters struggle and it's easy to let your head go down, which leads to it being even worse. Hopefully Derrick is now on the other side of that, and VA will see a lot of good things from him. Big move to drop John O'Shea, sorry Jean Louchet, from goal. Everyone in the squad has been underwhelming, and the keeper often pays the price. I don't recall Lacombe making errors from the few times I've seen him. Obviously a bit rustier from lack of regular games. And it is good for the squad that he gets a chance, if Louchet has made a few costly individual errors.

Dowman suspended for 3 games. And grounded for a month by Arteta with no playstation. 🙂

Impressive that he's a household name at his age. It's only your house, but still. 🙂

That makes sense. We were as rubbish against decent opposition as he was as part of a Norwich defence. And at Norwich, he'd come out with exactly the same rubbish.

Stocking

Aw. Really sad news. Obviously had his theatrical career, but would pop up in loads of things. I'm watching the Le Carre adaptations of Tinker tailor soldier spy and Smiley's People this week, and he's there are Karla. Or in I Cladius, Excalibur, or Lifeforce all the way through to voiceovers in American Dad! or Family Guy, then in Extras. Such a range of things, and every one of them better for him being there.
