What I like about RW is that he obviously has an eye for a player and has had so for a long time, when you consider the number of fairly unknowns that have rolled up here and done brilliantly when it transpired they had contact with Wellens years back.

Looking forward to Reg ringing in and explaining to RW how his model of getting in loans and players with history of injuries on the cheap won't work.

Is Brian from Larkhall still going? I haven't listened to one for years.

Reminds me of Macari in that respect...

Why would I do that when what I said was, it had the potential for problems and would test Wellens' mettle as a manager.

Quote
Wellens is having his mettle tested now... the policy of loans and players with dodgy fitness records used back in the summer always had the potential for problems.  It was fair enough insofar as it enabled a bit of extra quality to be brought in.

If he can work his way around the current problems and still get some results, then it will look very good on his CV.

I think events showed that there were problems... and that having navigated a path through so far, it does reflect well on him, which has no doubt not gone unnoticed at other clubs.

I hope someone asks about when he's going to sign a contract extension.

No need,   much better facilities just outside the ground,  as long as people patronise the facilities inside the ground the longer they will continue to serve up the overpriced cold crap they do.   Vote with your feet if you're not happy.

Talking of food and drink facilities. The Fish and Chip shop at the end of Drove Road as you get to the Magic Roundabout was closed on Saturday, with a sign saying 'Closed as the machine is broke'. They will be kicking themselves as they would have made a killing on Saturday!

They'll be kicking themselves more for having left the last letter off their sign.

Jesus, I didn't realise that! Luckily it wasn't worse then and nobody was injured!

I think I may have corrected other parts of the sign but broken was spelled that way!
