League Cup a few years ago. Macclesfield in the second round.  Re-arranged owing to a biblical storm in the original tie, winner knew they were playing Chelsea away.

You wouldn't know that carrot was dangled though, a drab 0-0 draw settled on penalties.  Arthur Gnahoua with one of the successful Macc penalties.

well if we get through/draw and we're away again, that'll be 6 FA Cup away draws in a row, some record

And from Blundell Park to those grounds we've played at, we've covered 2,448 miles without a home draw!

Be lucky if game is on... -4 tonight and only +1 tomorrow.


Crewe vs Bristol has been called off. To be fair to Crewe it has barely got above freezing the in 2 days here and was -3 below for most of the morning leading up the pitch inspection they did at midday


I don't mind Roy Keane making £60,000 a week. I was making the same when I was playing. The only difference was I was printing my own - Mickey Thomas

The area you are trying to protect at corners is the goal - Chris Kamara

I once said Gazza's IQ was less than his shirt number and he asked me: What's an IQ? - George Best

Very interesting interview by Matt Dean, that goes off on some random tangents. Tolstoy's War and Peace anyone?

Passing mention of the transfer window, without any detail.

Matt also asks about Alex Hunt and why he hasn't been included thus far, among many other points raised.

Well worth a listen.

Interesting story about keeping a player engaged on the bench, very smart.

Interested to hear him say he’ll be meeting with Joe to “see how far down the line the club was with certain things”. Inference there being the recruitment work has been ongoing since the end of the transfer window and probably still carrying on with targets that had been identified through the summer. Saves him coming in and having to start from scratch which will be a big plus.

Can’t see anything doing with Murphy from Newcastle now given he came on against Chelsea last week.

Looking at Oxford's website, the pitch is covered with no apparent concerns of postponement.

Very interesting insight, what he learned and has taken on board from other sports and methods is interesting and shows his approach is to adapt and learn.

Listening to that talk David is a very deep thinker.

He will not come out with any bullshit  engage brain before opening mouth is the saying.

He wants to be here long term and I hope he his, that will mean he is successful.

The journey might be long but we will get stronger as time goes by I am sure.
