I’m not sure if you were at Stockport and if you weren’t I’m sorry to disappoint but Revan is most definitely not quick


He was running forward from our penalty area when i went for a psss and when I came back he hadn't reached the half way line.

Out of interest, did the club catch you out by only telling certain people that our Number N N N N NINE was on the verge of signing?

Also, if the role of Chief Operating Officer was advertised, would you have applied for it?


That doesn't prove he didn't have knowledge. There's been many occasions where a player has agreed everything and changes his mind at the last minute. Vose was on his way to sign when Scunny called and he stopped off there to sign instead.

Except on this occasion Town did make a signing (after the club’s Twitter account hinted that they would be, as they do). It just so happened to be number seven, William Bapaga.

He guessed, and he got it wrong. And with that the ruse was over.

One way to identify an informant leaking knowledge to people is to tell those you suspect certain things and see what gets out.

Whoever has been informing TVFTL on Twitter has certainly lost their Midas touch recently too.

A certain person who has recently left the club would need to know about a player signing imminently so that they could set the camera up in front of a lawnmower and research some original interview questions like "how did the move come about?"

Is Dale not at the club anymore?

I was there. He got closed down sharpish by Stockport's defence and had to track back a lot. Stockport's winger was very nippy and Revan was perhaps slow to turn. At Alfreton he was marking their pacy winger and did well. He was also part of the quick break down the left when McAtee slotted home.  At Boston, he was pretty speedy breaking from the halfway line.

Who said ' the first five yards are in the head'?  He did seem a bit off compared to previous games but no more than Coke for example.

Similar feedback to what we had about Alex Hunt. He's doing alright so far.
