Teams who can’t score goals go down. I recall so many games when we last got relegated when we were 1-0 up but couldn’t get the second goal so ended up drawing or losing

Will be interesting to see a fully fit Browne mopping up after Stockley's aerial duels. Not quite as good a foil as Stevens but he can take his opportunities when they come.

Hopefully get a glimpse of this vs Wycombe.
That’s my gut feel too Hash but I can appreciate CW’s view especially as we’re currently the division’s lowest scorers outside of the bottom 2.

And I’ve seen some of our clean sheets - whew!
Don't know what happened to Matty. He wasn't injury prone to begin with. Got through a season and a half without any major issues. Maybe he has just been desperately unlucky in the last 7/8 months or however long it has been. He scores goals when fit and we need people who score goals so I wouldn't get rid of him personally.

Indeed OI, the outcome is more people living into their 80/90s which is a big strain on the NHS and social care (care homes)

DO - death statistics are 'skewed' by the fact we all have to die of something but amongst younger cohorts heart and lung disease deaths have decreased dramatically in the last 60 years.

DO, lung disease has fallen esp cancer and heart disease has halved but is now increasing again due to lifestyle (diet & non exercise)

I am more & more impressed with Yiadom each time I see him play. Thought he was MotM v Barnet. I thought Harry Connick jr was almost invisible - but is coming back from injury.

It's a shame but I can see CW's point with Stevens. Very decent striker when he's on form but we need strikers on the pitch now otherwise we'll burn Stockley out.

Also brings in the question of if you move him on what sort of quality is available to replace him? Tricky one for JJ & CC.
Yeah two days ago - Matty is still a long-term injury, we get updated on his progress every week.

Doesn’t sound like he’ll be back soon
Naz - last injury update on the OS that I was said he was still "long term". So who knows?

I think we need to get rid of Stevens when his contract is up too injury prone can’t afford too many passengers

Spit, £5/6 duty free sounds about right. I paid roughly £3.20 per pack of Marlboro red at Riga Airport 4 years ago.

All the best Alan, i'm assuming the operation was successful. Must be a huge relief to get that behind you

Never smoked or vaped.but you can get £5/6 for 20 cigs in some vape shops.

Mind f knows what's in them cigs, they do have duty paid written on the boxes;-)
RK-£1 an hour might be the going rate in Cambodia though

Alan - I’ve got a signed Storm print of Only Revolutions alternative cover (not chosen, but similar to the actual one) - it’s genuine (came from the studio itself), but the pencil signature has faded away since Thorgerson’s death… :(

What do the next few weeks/months look like for you Alan? Are you under home arrest or can you get out and about a bit?

Here in Italy, the smoking rate is 24% adults (compared to 11% UK). Something we got right by health campaigns and taxes. The smoking lobby back in the 1960s disputed that smoking causes heart & lung illness and claimed it was a conspiracy
