If you say so. By the way my daughter has asthma she is a PE teacher run several marathons

 

no such thing as having had asthma. You have it or you dont. You can have attack for years, but it's always there.

 

It is but it can be managed

 

Didn't disagree with that.

 

Of course it can be managed. If it couldn't, there would be far more deaths in the UK than the 100pa we have now. To what level? Crankshaw made a few lungbusters and had to come off, he was not fit enough to play 4 days later so will not have been able to train properly in that time. Parky's team had Ready as a defence outlet. They could kick out to him and he could go on one of his runs 6/8 times per game, come back and do it again 4 days later. Clearly Crankshaw will not be able to do that. There are many sports people who suffer the exercise induced rather than allergy induced and with the correct monitoring, do so very succesfully. I don't know which asthma Crankshaw suffers from but it doesn't change my original point that only 1 out of the 9 signings has so far shpwn his worth.

 

Ismail also passed a medical...

 

We have a creaking stadium that we don't own (crucial point) and I really don't believe that post-lockdown, we'll have more than 8 - 10,000 fans at home games as we go forward. Alot of people will have got out of the habit of attending and found other things to do and pursue - a lot more will be turned off by the dismal fare we've been serving up for the past three seasons and beyond. I was really pleased to see how T&S got us out of the shit of very possible relegation into the National. But it was only by playing dull, defensive, attritional football. Horses for courses, they achieved a turnaround. But honest to God - we currently play awful football. Can't keep the ball, seldom threaten in the final third, total hoof merchants in defence. It's bloody poor.
