And that’s how far we’ve fallen!

If he’s as prolific as Sam Winnall was I’ll be happy.

Welcome!

Bedeau on loan to Morecambe is an interesting one.

Have they had to remove the trawler post Brexit?

True to form the Government have appointed a Minister of Education who knows nothing about the system!

[Northumbiron]

Exactly a point per game over the last seven, so on current form we’re on course to finish with 42.

Our form shouldn’t drop over the remaining half a season so we could end up with more. All we need to get to 49/50 is to raise our ppg to 1.33.

It is doable, keep the faith!

Aye, we seem to be good at signing those types of players!

I don’t know. PCR tests are clearly not accurate.

PCR tests are pretty accurate, as are LFTs.

The problems are a) that the new Omicron variant is much more virulent compared to previous strains. b) that a person can be carrying the virus for several days before testing positive, and c) the symptoms are not as easy to recognise as before, being similar to the common cold (but definitely not flu).

My personal experiences over the past ten days leads me to believe that if you are not testing then you could carry the Omicron variant without even knowing. But footballers ARE being tested, so obviously the virus is being picked up, and to fulfil medical recommendations they are having to self isolate, some with no ill effects whatsoever, others who will be poorly for a few days.

Vaccinations WILL reduce the risks of both contracting Covid and passing it on to others. So being vaccinated should be seen as a benefit. I would have thought that most professional sportsmen and sportswomen would have taken up the vaccines, but they are of the age where scaremongering about the possible side effects may put them off.

What I have noticed are some of the statements put out by clubs which go along the lines of … “due to positive Covid tests and injuries”.

Are some sides using it as a convenient stalling mechanism to carry themselves through into the transfer window?

[Northumbiron]

Aye, he’ll probably be match fit by March.

[Northumbiron]

So why are so many games being cancelled?

Personally I think it is everyone duty to get vaccinated ! But we live in a democracy where people have the choice to not have the vaccine so we will have this situation its a difficult one.

Terms and conditions apply. Check your contract.

I await the comments of the anti-vaxxers with interest.

[Northumbiron]

Well it was a six-pointer after all.

For me in the predictions league!

[Northumbiron]

We’ll give them the £50k AND Loft!

[Northumbiron]

No Manny at the back which is a bit of a worry.

Jarvis and Beestin absent too. Covid? Jarvo going out on loan?

[Northumbiron]

When were our last back to back wins?

They didn’t struggle to find two goals in the last ten minutes.

Hopefully we’ve ironed that out (pun intended)!

For me, he’s too inconsistent and is either a 5/10 or 8/10 rating. When he’s a 5 you can spot it within the first 10 minutes of the game from his body language.

Didn’t we used to say something similar about KvV?

[Northumbiron]

It had crossed my mind ‘tash. But if that was the reason why has Gallimore been given game time?

Was that the word LOST Barton?

Carlisle’s trip to Salford off too.

[Northumbiron]

A home game on the back of a good away win may have enticed a few back.

But we’ll have to wait until NYD now!

[Northumbiron]

At least it gives the likes of Bunn, Kenyon & Davis extra rehabilitation/recovery time.

I think you’re being overly optimistic if you think we’d be able to bring in a new signing on New Year’s Day tas!

[Northumbiron]

The no-hopers that are on two year contracts?

Form table from last six games has us 15th.

If we continue with this form we’re on for a 47pt finish.

Still squeaky bums, but if we can grab a few wins and build some confidence we could even reach the magic 50!

[Northumbiron]

Or maybe he’s putting himself in the shop window.

We’ve scored more goals than another team?

How?
