That Advertiser story is dated 27th Feb 2016 so way before the subject of the NYT piece, however are the NYT now sourcing stories from the UK local press - I await with baited breath their take on the woman trapped in house by mattress cliffhanger! Equally the Sun story is from late March so again before the events depicted in the NYT happened. Edit - actually the NYT and Sun pieces are by the same journalist - I wonder whether Yasers agent has a friendly journalist working to keep his clients name in the media at the moment?

I suspect both the NYT and Sun pieces are from a regional stringer who's piece has since been syndicated, hence the somewhat eclectic global coverage

But the piece in the Sun dates from before the bomb attack so is a completely different story, whilst both of the stories you have quoted relate to Yaser going back to Iraq both are before the event that was even the subject of the NYT piece? My point remains why are these stories being picked up the press in the US of A but the local rag doesn't seem able to pick them up likewise.

Sorry I didn't explain that very well. I meant I suspect both pieces are by the same stringer who is regionally based and writes up sports stories that are then syndicated and offered nationally and internationally. Why the story got picked up in the US is, I suspect, because it's a pretty topical human interest story and offers a new angle on the ISIS story. Why the Adver didn't pick it up, well because I suspect no-one on the Adver sports desk even knew that an Iraqi football festival had been targeted by ISIS to make the connection "Hey, I wonder if that affected Yaser at all?" as that would have been categorised as a news rather than sport story.

Hopefully Iraq send him home. Would be handy for Saturday's match.

Feeling positive Town fans? Don't worry your next kick in the bollocks is only days away.
Suppose we played well on Saturday without him but he just enables so much more control of the game.

He'll be fucked with jet lag even if the injury isn't a problem

Generally takes him a couple of weeks, irrespective of any injuries, before he's back to normal after the Iraq internationals.

You're right, we're only ever a few hours from bad luck or a fuck up, it's always been like that, bar sort of 87-90 before the motherlode of all fuck ups got us. Can't see that ever changing

As I pointed out Yas played about 50% of games last season....the seemingly increasing number of breaks, plus recovery from travel/injuries etc mean it must be legitimate to ask whether for a lower league club with a small squad it's worth it?

Didn't he start on the bench for their last game? I wouldn't be surprised if he's just throwing another tantrum.
