    Even against Leeds do you recall that one handed catch?

    Someone pinged it from about 20 yards, it was on target and instead of moving he just stuck out a right hand and somehow caught it! I've never seen anything like it!

    Yeah the body might have long gone but his skill levels were still there in the head.

    Exactly - it's says it all as regards ambition. We are stuck with mediocre L2 for the foreseeable

    Apologies for that! It wasn't intentional. ;)

    To soothe your nerves, can I suggest that you go and sit in your favourite comfy chair; put some soothing music on; get your hubbie to bring you a lovely cup of tea; let the cat sit on your lap and try to forget about the City shitshow. All will soon be good in the world! :thumbup:

    ps Be careful not to spill your tea when stroking the cat otherwise you'll be back where you started! :)

    I am calm now. The cats are lovely and very soothing. I agree, worrying about City is a thankless task. Just about to have a manicure so another relaxing task i should be chilled.

    It's Thursday.

    No sale of either Young or Lewis.

    Is Young training again, or are we still playing silly buggers?

    Take this how you want, and I genuinely want/ need us to be successful for my mental health, but there is something in the "at least we aren't Bury" statement.

    Their supporters were riding the dream, been promoted, seemingly doing well and signing quality players, then BANG, their rogue owner is found out.

    I hate being where we are in the league, I hate the perceived lack of ambition, but at least we go into every season with renewed hope and one day it will happen.

    I think both will go. Sparks will be happy that we are away in deep Essex, if it had been a home game I think everything would have been rushed through. I’m expecting Doyle to start on Saturday and a replacement brought in next week. One things for sure is one good save and it’ll be Harry who? One mistake that costs us and they’ll be a riot, there’s never an inbetween with this club. Sometimes I think it’s run the way it is because the football on the pitch os so dull at times so Sparks wants to make it into a serial drama off the pitch to keep us entertained lol.

    We could all see what was looming at Bury they simply massively overspent what was coming in we aint ............. we aint talking throwing millions at it with FFP i doubt we could anyhow ..........we are talking about a leader an owner who will at least get on board with the fans ambitions somebody who cares unlike Rupp.

    Btw as bad as Bury FC have dropped would it really shock you if they passed us with another 5 years of Rupp ???
