Looks like Rochdale have been rescued by a knight in shining armour. Local millionaire/billionaire Sir Peter Ogden is set to take over. Then we hear - “ Who’d be interested in Rovers ? “

Neither was Siggy as far as I could see.

The Beatles - I’ve Just Seen A Face

Maybe Gilsenan will get some game time now ?

So do Rovers.

It certainly felt like it. Let’s see what he goes for when he leaves Palace.

Walker’s had a great career. He’s still as quick now as he was when he was younger. A very difficult opponent for any winger/wide player. I remember seeing him playing for Sheff Utd against the dingles at Wembley and thinking - “ that left back can play a bit “. That’s where he played that day. Best player on the pitch in that game.

Gladys Knight And The Pips - Baby Don’t Change Your Mind

Arthur Alexander - Soldier Of Love The Beatles did a good cover of this.

It’s a miracle we get the crowds we do. Supporting Rovers under the the Chicken Chokers is only slightly preferable to knocking nails through the back of your hand.

The Music Explosion - Little Bit o’ Soul

Thanks, sounds like a minefield to me.

I was in Waterstones book shop in Manchester yesterday. I noticed a coffee table size book on the subject of “ Rickenbacker “ guitars. It was still in the cellophane rapping so I can’t review it but it was a weighty tome. ” Rickenbacker ,Pioneers of the electric guitar “ . The definitive history of a 20th century icon. By Martin Kelly and Paul Kelly. There was as a similar book regarding “ RSG “. If you have to ask - the book isn’t for you. This one I did get a look through and it’s excellent - £40 though. Incidentally on my way from Waterstones to the Royal Exchange John Buckley and his wag walked past me. ” A Taste Of Honey “ at the Royal Exchange was OK but not a “ must see “.

The Donays - Devil In His Heart

I know nothing about horse race betting thank god. I’ve seen a few guys whose lives have been dominated by it. How do you bet on a horse not to win ?

I’ve never rated Southgate as a manager. He’s a decent human being and he was a very good player, but that’s as far as it goes for me. If I read in tomorrows paper that we’d sacked Eustace and replaced him with Southgate I wouldn’t exactly be overjoyed.

Or Phillips when he gets match fit again.

Chuck Jackson - I Keep Forgetting

Sven took another centre half instead of Jansen, then didn’t play him.

It’s outrageous that things like that can happen behind the managers back ! No wonder he was pissed off. We’ll never get anywhere whilst we’re owned by these idiots but I’m not telling you anything you don’t already know.
