Cheers, corrected.


Non league is more damning. I used to think Burnsey was a gobby oaf, but as I've aged, I've come to realise he is a pretty good journalist.[/quote]

Burnsy is one of the brightest people I've ever spoken to with a wide range of knowledge on many issues. Have to say that I was offended by his words about us going to non-League at the time - subsequent history showed him to be spot on - I bet he wishes he'd put a bet on.

Are you Marley in disguise ? 😉


The wife was going away for a girly weekend.
I jokingly remarked  'I don't know whether to spend it watching porn or watching football'
'you may as well spend it watching porn' she replied
That's understanding darling what makes you say that? I asked

She said 'Well you already know how to play football'

I have just had a listen.

I used to work with Nigel, so respect his judgement. I have met Burnsey and as Old Codger says he is more astute than you would imagine.

I would think if it was off air the "air" would turn blue - but it comes over loud and clear that Fenty is the clubs biggest problem, but we all knew that anyway.

Some interesting things were said. "Back him or sack him" was Burns' mantra and it is true. If the board think Slade is the right man then back him up in the transfer marker. Burns made me smile when he said "Slade says in the board meeting - we are short of goals  and desperately need a top striker and I have got these options - A) one is an experienced striker just coming back from injury and he will cost £x that we will have to fund .B) I also like a young lad from Derby, who will pay most of the wages. We will take option B says Fenty. Probably true!! As Nigel said - we need real quality to make a difference.

One caller said gates would double if we woke up tomorrow and Fenty had quit. Probably right.

One of them said, should the Trust consider their position to be involved at all with the Fenty set up??

The final thing I remember was them discussing a dignified exit strategy for Fenty. That is what is needed - no need to grind axes just accept it hasn't worked and find a way to move on.

Think that the Trust would gain a lot of credibility if it came out and said it could not work with Fenty anymore and withdraw from the board.You have to face it they would have as much influence not being on the board as they do being on it.


Give a man a fish and you feed him for a day,teach a man to fish and you give him an excuse for him to escape from the wife and kids for the weekend and drink lots of beer.
