    Yeah, just seen that. She says on twitter that if they called off the game, there was no guarantee a 15 point penalty wouldn't be imposed. It's just so odd, seems to be a different set of rules/circumstances every time another team has positive test/s.

    Conor McAleny is one I would have liked to see us pursuing this summer. Had a really good spell on loan at Oxford whilst on the books of Everton. Probably didnt do himself justice at Fleetwood, but the couple of times I have seen him he always impressed

    5 in 5 for Oldham now since signing in the summer

    Morecambe currently top of the league - and on a goal difference of -1.

    I wonder if a team has ever been top of a division before, with a minus goal difference?
    [waits for lots of examples]

    Yep, i thought Oldham have financial problems but it didn't stop them signing Danny Rowe, the prolific striker from Fylde who i wouldn't have minded City having a look at.

    It doesn't make sense.

    Now that Grimsby single handedly decided to announce that they had called off a game before consulting the EFL and they got away with it, why would anyone else try and play a game??? Stupid from Tranmere. If I were them I'd have said "we had covid cases or players with symptoms, we're not playing, if you don't like it, tough, you did nowt against Grimsby so that's your precedent set"

    He is on big money at Oldham I think....he was on £6k- £7k at Fleetwood so I was told.

    Not sure Grimsby have got away with it, The EFL have a ongoing investigation in to the circumstances and may very well issue a punishment which in extreme could be a points deduction but more probably a suspended fine.

    Ideally they should play the game with players registered at the time of the game

    It's a shocking tune. Caught myself singing along at Wembley in 96 and have never forgiven myself.

    Same with Rocking all over the world by the Quo. A song that makes me cringe, yet at Wembley ‘96 I was chanting along to it. I seem to remember at that hastily arranged friendly versus Feyenoord (I think) a few days later GR told the match day entertainment team to get the songs back on Over the tannoy to recreate the atmosphere which sadly didn’t quite work.....

    I don't get annoyed with myself but every time I hear of it, I think of that game! Fast forward 17 years and whenever I hear 'feel the love' by rudimental, I think of prematch against Swansea.

    Millwall, have no defining tune, though that could be alcohol related.

    If I remember correctly he had loads of problems at Fleetwood with injuries and was often brought on from the bench.
