2-2 for me please. BTW, there are are actually 3 cathedrals in the fair city of Coventry, The new one, the bombed out one and one that was revealed just to the rear of the bombed out cathedral. It was dug out by Time Team and other volunteers a few years back, probably under a shopping centre or worse, a car park now.

Cashy's Maxi Closes The Gap To Pointless Ancestral Rolls

Faced with an away game against a side who are below us solely because they have scored one goal less , the faith was kept by a slender majority of our players. 12 for us , 4 for them and 7 on the fence - that's only 23 players, the least ever I think, despite a new recruit in the shape of a Taypot - a pointless Taypot, I'm sorry to say. Unexpected absences from Wynonie and DaveinGermany . But on we go …..

To the 7 undecided the spoils, once again, and top billing among the 4 maxis goes to Cashman who took advantage of both players ahead of him going pointless to cut the gap to Lord Stiffupperlip to 2, with Kiwi John left 5 points further adrift in 3rd. The other maxis caused much disruption amongst the elite , with Football19, Revived Red and Ossy Kid moving forward en bloc, from 11th, 12th and 14th to 4th, 7th and 11th respectively, with AccyMad and Andy D dropping out of the Top Ten. Incredibly tight behind the leading 3, with the next 10 all in the 30 to 33 point range.

The remaining drawmongers, Tommy McQueen, LongLostSon and Outback Ozzy took 3 points each and made more limited gains in the lower half of the table, climbing from 20th, 23rd and 24th to 19th, 20th and 21st. Almost everybody else got a point, so little other movement.

So it's a fortnight off for your correspondent while the men in red deal with t'Troffy (West Brom kids and Blackpool) and t'Cup (Colchester), before this string of tricky league fixtures continues with Barnsley rolling up to the Crown on 17th Nov. Strongest possible sides for t'Troffy, then? No, I didn't think so either …..

On Stanley On!!

I plead mitigating circumstances yer 'oner! Last time I dabbled on a keyboard was Wednesday morning, the rest of my time from then until Satuday evening was spent driving, being stuck in traffic, visiting an old acquaintance in the back of beyond (Mersea Island) & getting very, very drunk. Then more driving, more traffic jams, vast amounts of shopping, catching a ferry, being all at sea, then when we hit land again guess what?



More driving & even more traffic jams (Continental ones this time!) fiunally arriving at our doorstep Saturday about 2ish here, then unpacking, stowing, repairs etc, etc ..... when it was all over it was some time Saturday evening & I'd missed the footy too!


Rest assured, I'll be back for the next un mind.
