    I’m sure they could run to a set of goalposts and 350 metres of fencing!

    With the Queen’s passing it’s probably a good opportunity to get rid of bank notes and coins.

    Don’t really need them now and it would save the Treasury billions not having to mint and print new issues bearing King Charles’s head.

    Likewise stamps. Simple barcode stickers is all that’s needed.

    Apparently there are a couple of groups still lurking around.

    Not the only thing still lurking around!

    Even if you’ve a clapped out car there’ll be someone interested in buying it.

    But if you’re asking silly money for it!

    In which case no one is interested and it ends up going to the scrapyard.

    How you doing Yosser? Didn’t mean to take your (user)name in vain.

    I’m sure you get my drift.

    Forget Yossarian. This is the real Catch 22.

    Permanent appointment means we’re stuck with Swann. Interim manager means we’re stuck in limbo.

    No way out?

    “I’m sure you get the gist?”

    Indeed. And my gist is that a list of white knights riding to our rescue won’t use up much ink!

    But is it possible that the answer is not at the club at all?

    You are correct of course, but weren’t we saying that at least his self imposed exile meant that this was Hill’s team not a “committee” amalgam?

    But we’ve been here before, many times.

    Manager brings his boys in. Some of whom he’s managed before. Assistant Manager does something similar. Manager and Assistant are sacked, the players that they brought in get a lip on and go into sulk mode.

    This is made worse by the general malaise surrounding the club and the hopelessness of being bottom of the league.

    If any of you want another music reference can I offer “Supermassive Black Hole”?

    After a 3-0 defeat…..

    “The gameplan that we set out was the right one, we just didn’t execute it properly and I think we needed to be aggressive. We’ve played against one of the league’s top teams but we’ve made them look even better than they are and we made ourselves look worse in the process.”

    Don’t read anyone dissing Cox IA.

    Just posters sceptical as to whether any bid in any shape or form will be acceptable to the Pawn.

    The attendances will go down Bartonscorpion. We’re seeing that already. I was due to come down for the York game, but unless a lot happens in the next fortnight I doubt very much if I will.

    Renee’s Einstein quote the other day was spot on. Insanity – doing the same thing repeatedly and expecting a different outcome.

    Until we’re rid of Swann every day will be Groundhog Day.
