Doomed Doomed the Alex are Doomed !
Pretty Standard Season so far, & not appearing to shew the slightest hope of improvement, Sorry is a regular state of affairs at Gresty Road, always excepting the Chippy across the road from the ground, naturally a great source of vinegar !

Just read the fixtures for Tuesday { Midtable Swindon @ Gresty Road } a rehearsal for next Saturday [ Lincoln away -- Table toppers ]
Always knew there was a very good reason for not buying / reading the Sunday rags -- they can ruin a whole bloomin' week just like that !! And now it's started raining.
All this after WN moaned about those beloved Steam Engine Thingies ( WN's term )

Well City managed to get a late win against Hoffenheim. I know, no one has heard of Hoffenheim!
Anyway, we were at the match and really enjoyed it.
We're staying 5 nights in Heidelberg (not in the 'van), fly home tomorrow.
Away at Liverpool at the weekend, not going to that one. Much as I like Anfield, we always get walloped there.
Will try to post a photo of Hoffenheim.....

My team may not be doing very well on the grass but off the field it's a different story. Today we're away at Burnley and the chairman his wife and 200 other fans are walking the 26 and a bit miles from the JSS to Turf Moor to raise funds for the Alzheimer's Society in memory of Ray Wilson MBE. They set off at 3.00 am!
Ray was suffering from Alzheimer's disease at the time of his death earlier this year.
Last week the Town Foundation opened its 31st breakfast club and this year passed the milestone of one million breakfasts served to school children who would otherwise have gone to school without a proper breakfast.
The other big fund raising feat has seen money raised for the Yorkshire Air Ambulance for the ninth consecutive year this year.
Hopefully the team will soon turn the corner and start to match that effort on the grass.

Your team may not be doing too well on the field, but off it - Wow! What brilliant community spirit!! Many teams work hard with local communities and charities and to pass one million breakfasts for schoolchildren, in my book, puts you top of the league!
Long may it continue 👍😀

Not sure how I feel about footie tonight
.Poor old Alex had the worst of todays game at Gresty Road but scored first then, justifiably conceded to let Bury escape with a deserved point __ BUT I was sitting here typing away & listening to the Port Vale V Lincoln game and could not stop laughing P V just scraped a lucky but deserved THRASHING at Burslem..
To Hell with sad thoughts __ Come on Lincoln, Lincoln come on !!

Round 'uns, allegedly pork, contained in pastry but I'd recommend those from the local chippy -- their pie cases taste less like football leather, and the meats fresher -- twas running round the training ground this morning !!
The tea is detectable by the smaller labels { less letters than coffee of course !! }
Ye Gawds -- The Old un's are still the best bi 'eck

Just back from the game this evening against Liverpool. Although we lost 1-0 that was a really good performance from Town and with a bit more luck we would have had a point against last seaon's Champions League finalists.
A cracking shot comes back off the post when an inch the other way it would have gone in: a goal ruled out for inches offside: and a penalty ,that you've seen given , denied.

Anyone like to sell Rovers a goal? It's been over 9 hours now since we've managed to persuade the ball that the back of the net is the place to be. That great striking duo we bought from Shrewsbury in the close season are about as much use as Batman & Robin (that'll be the Delboy and Rodney version of the dynamic duo!)

Well, now I'm esconced in my bunker {& fully kitted out in body armour}, I'm quite happy for a change. It's only cost me a small fortune checking out the sports news, the TV news, some far away friends and three Saturday sports papers as well as the TV MOTD on Saturday evening and Sunday morning and all to verify the fact that "The Alex Won Away " yesterday !!
