Vardy is now 33 and still full of running.

Can we add Grandin to our list of CL players who have played against us?  He will play against the team in training. 😀

Quoted from rancido



I think Grandin will be a similar situation to Clarke - a contract until the end of the season and if you prove yourself then another season. I have it on very good authority that Clarke wanted 18 months but Ollie said "prove yourself and we'll see".


Alternatively he may only want a short term holiday in the U.K. and then buzz off again to sunnier climes.

Billy Clarke signing was met with a touch of derision from some quarters but has been a fantastic signing so far.

And to conclude the WWII discussion if I may be so bold 😬, might I just say that if wasn't for that bloody Hitler fella GTFC, who were established and sometimes one of the top sides in the top tier (fifth in 1935 was it?), might have cemented themselves in the upper echelons a bit more who knows?

As it stood our superstars players were either too old or lost to war come 1945 and we immediately dropped down the divisions.

Though of course the millions of grieving families, the Jewish community etc got much more pertinent reasoning to dislike him than the effects on a game of kicking a pigs bladder between the two sticks...

But I thought post the age of 30 and especially 32 everybody's legs go? 🤔

Im 38 and feel my legs haven't gone... mind you I never had them to a footballers extent so probably won't have noticed 😅

so has this Grandin bloke joined us in freezing Cleethorpes or has he decided to remain on the idyllic Indian Ocean island? (it's only 30 degrees with a light breeze this weekend)

In his pre-FGR interview, Ollie says it's all sorted and he is coming over tomorrow with his wife and young child to sign.

Would you please tell my wife that.

Thank you.


No need to mate.

She’s getting stacks  


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'
