    or something like that yes. Fella is a communications manager - should now understand that he has to give at least an inkling of the full picture to fans.

    Going to assume covid protocol as to why no sub keeper but may be an idea to test one of the youngsters and have them on backup going forwards? Though if longer term injury I assume they’ll just be brought into the match day squad anyway

    Unless the EFL has completely different protocols to the PL then I would say no. The 14 players a PL club is supposed to have for a game to go ahead this season included anyone under 21 who is on pro terms so even if COVID is taking players out the PL are supposed to be insisting that u21 players are selected to make up the numbers.

    And United called up about 6 of our youngsters to train with the first team squad the last couple of days including a 16 year old so if they can train with the team they must be able to play.

    Again maybe the EFL protocols with less testing are different but expecting teams to not have keeper cover doesn't seem like something they would force on teams

    Grimsby had a massive one seemingly down the whole length of the pitch.

    Audio is off and on on ifollow. Pictures seem fine thankfully.

    They seem to have started better. We've had less of the ball but had a good passing stretch on our one main attack. Need to get our foot on the ball.

    Novak is class.

    Really clever on the ball, smart feet, good hold up.

    Need to get more players gambling on the ball into the box. Two crosses now and no one in the six yard box. If Novak is wide then someone needs to get into the middle.

    Couple of good passing moves from us though. Look incisive when we go forwards.

    Save from their keeper there. Picking up the pace now.

    I have started with some Gavi from Aldi to go with the remains of the home cured salmon.
    Tilimuqui Argentinian Malbec to go with the turkey and leek pie later.
