    A pleasing result regardless.

    Alledgedly they were also using an experimental flat back 6 that’ll also be unleashed at the weekend. Good times.

    I undestood it as:

    -LT’s responsibilities being split up and new responsibilities given to new roles.
    -Possible reduction in the reliance of an individual. Spread the load.
    -The club want to go in a new direction. This seems to be a modern approach (data/facts/figures/crunching numbers). Maybe LT isn’t a fan of this and prefers a fileofax brimming with contacts?

    I don’t think there was any sinister conspiracy. Just a change to the way the club operates.

    In the interview Michelle stated they were still on talking terms. It didn’t give me the impression of an imminent tribunal.

    Seems to be slanted more toward the modern fetish of data driven moneyball.

    I’m unreliably informed he has been seen at Forest Pines.

    Last commentary – mine was silent til 11 minutes past 3!
    Does the blame for the confusion and late everything lie with the BBC or Humberside?
    Others arrive on time so I have to point Hullwards.

    Who knows. But I wouldn’t be too hard on the Humberside folks. Funding for local radio is being absolutely decimated (purposefully I think), I imagine technical assistance is first for the chop.

    Pepper was sent of from a stretcher after breaking his leg and punching the guy who did it

    IIRC Pepper was carried off with a serious, possibly career ending, injury.

    The Pepper incident happened in front of us close to the half way line.

    It was an utter piss take that the other player completely got away with it. The ref couldn’t have been more pleased with himself dishing out ‘justice’.

    I know several people that stopped going due to Covid and haven’t returned or gone elsewhere. What’s currently on offer won’t tempt them back but entertainment (preferably with success) might do.

    Would they compromise and settle for a decent pie at half time?

    How many fans will stop going? Do you think they’ll swap allegiance and go elsewhere? Or just stop watching live local football?

    It’s also important to look at increasing the lottery payout. Disgrace.

    Still nothing for me. Radcliffe radio link working though.

    They don’t always start until kick-off, annoyingly.

    Today it looks like we’ll be on Freeview TV (depends where you are in the country on which channel you need, just channel hop until BBC Radio Humberside magically appears).

    And also looks like an internet stream. These can be a pain to find and don’t always appear before 3 o’clock.

    Start off on https://bbc.co.uk/sport/football then you have to hunt down, usually, something like ‘LIVE: non-league commentaries’ usually further down the page.

    It’s always a waiting game to see how Humberside split the frequencies/streams to know where you need to be. this only seems to be published on the day of the match.

    The best place I find is checking the twitter feed for details https://x.com/HumbersideSport?t=c7MjWUromIoHT3wCfX3zmw&s=09

    Tom Jones looked a tidy play for them.

    That’s not unusual.

    I’m not sure if the signs ever came down or if they were robbed for posterity.

    The whole thing was pretty laughable at the time with the council denying any knowledge of a new stadium and the outstanding ‘architect’ renderings (on a bbc micro computer).
