Very impressed with Mr Jolley's mood changing abilities and the successes with the fans like today with the season ticket selling.

Just idly pondering while waiting in anticipation for his first signings to give us a clue, I wonder, what sort of football posters want to see from Mr Jolley's side at BP this season?

Are you a long ball merchant with target man up front and nippy runners going for the knock ons like Lump and Reddy? All action runners à la Bignot?  Or are you a Cloughie/Buckley disciple with the ball on the deck playing through midfield? Or ............

Alternatively don't you care as long as we win?

And having decided what you like, what sort of football do you actually expect to see?

Jolley has gone on record as saying he will mix and match depending on the situation as to what system he will use.

The suggestion that Bignot had a system or style of play is hilarious.

Sounds very much like my Ex !!


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 refer the Right Honourable Gentleman to the statement given by the late member for Nottingham. 'If God had wanted us to play football in the clouds, he'd have put grass up there.'


Through the door there came familiar laughter,
I saw your face and heard you call my name.
Oh my friend we're older but no wiser,
For in our hearts the dreams are still the same.
