Like most, I am delighted in the start to this season on and off the pitch.
However, it’s now quite apparent that we are a couple of players short of what’s required. I said at the start of the season Id be happy with the play offs. And that still applies.  But, given the fact we still don’t have an official number 9 ( must be a saving on the wage bill) and the size of the crowds at BP. I will be disappointed if we don’t see some reasonable quality coming in in January.

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'

Easy to say.
Do 'reasonable quality' want to come here and are they avaliable??


In his three stints as Grimsby Town manager spanning over 10 years the club was never relegated and he also guided them to three promotions.
Only 14 managers have reached 1,000 matches in charge of a Football League team by 1998 and Buckley is one of them.

Think that's the crux of the matter. Until January, there isn't the same pool of players to choose from as there will be when the window opens.

Hurst is looking for someone and the directors have said they will back him should the right player/s be identified.

Hopefully that will be sooner, rather than later, but to my mind, the team is still developing and is ongoing. We are ahead of where I thought we would be, but we are having a wobble and there is room for improvement.

We may have to wait until the new year.

Listening to Hurst our strength and conditioning coach hasn't strengthened our players very well, they're falling like flys in training

There are no daggers out  that i have seen , But there are signs that we are not good enough in depth let alone up front and we will say it as it is ,, At this moment you are the only one with a dagger out trying to stop free speach. So look in the mirror

To be honest, we are better off out of the cup to get out of this rag bag league.

It's not over to the owners. All along they have said that funding is or would be available for ANY players that Hurst wanted. What more can they do?

Its upto Hurst to get players in but as it stands nobody of his required standard is available. Hurst has been honest and told us of the numbers of players he has enquired about. Do you want him to do an 'Ollie' and buy any player who will come here? We all know how that ends!

We could win the league with a decent number 9. We might never have a better chance. Compared to the cost of not winning the league. Surely it's worth pushing the boat out?
