So far this week I've received three.

One about Vincent, one about Smith and now one about Alex fucking Rigley travelling with the first team.

Obviously the contract extension of Smith is worthy news, as would be any players departing or signing but I wouldn't consider a relatively short-term injury to a squad player or news about an unknown U18 player to be worthwhile.

Considering it costs something like £1.50 to receive these texts it's a joke - presumably someone at the club is trying to rinse me of the money I won't be spending on a matchday.

It's worth the money when it's the occasional text regarding important news but three relatively unimportant messages in a week is a farce.

That is a total rip off.

Par for the course though :?

Exactly what I thought when I got that one through about Rigley! when you see its from 84422, you think...here's that striker...but no.

They also managed to not text about Fola's move to Wycombe etc etc...they miss some big stories out.

I had to have them when I was travelling - I found out O'Hanlon was pissing off to franchise as I was being bundled into a plane to do a skydive in New Zealand - so the anger did quell the sheer fear somewhat.

Can't wait for the next one: STFC can announce that Martyn Starnes has completed a successful day in the office, correctly negotiated the stairs and has gone home for his tea.

It's useful if I'm at college all day or something and we're on the verge of doing something vaguely important.

I would never bother signing up to club texts as you can just see what news is happening a short while afterwards in the official site.

£1.50 is a complete rip off.

But before it goes on the official site, some one who has had a text invariably posts it on here 30 seconds later anyway.

That is very interesting news about Andrew Ridgely though.
