Bless you.

and a Russian linesman.

To me , it doesn't matter if a person is well connected, it matters if they are any good at their job.

Patong beach.

Are you an insurance salesman ? I don't see how you can comment on my financial situation, when you don't know me from Adam.

I rest my case, your honour.

With our squad 4-3-3 has been our least productive formation.

Are you here all week ?

I doubt that, and if I do, I will run out of money, so my forward planning is limited to a trip to Thailand in three weeks.

But I may die the day after tomorrow

Trains aren't running between Preston and Blackburn. Northern rail are advising people not to travel on the 5th. I am going to drive, so that means limited drinking.

Enter Chaddy. Sorry I couldn't resist.

All well and good, but I am paying my money for tomorrows game, tomorrow.

I think that Mola will make an excellent left wing-back or full-back. I also think he can do a job on the left side of a midfield three. He is strong both in the air and in a tackle.

Mola is never a center-back, but for the U21s (It's not the U23's anymore) when he has wandered into the left side of midfield, he looks a very competent player. My opinion is on the back of seing him, live.

my midfield three would be - Morton, Adam Wharton, Mola

Do the refs get punished for their errors ?

If Hirst plays again this season for the Rovers, I will turn the plait I made on Tuesday back into sawdust.

Left back - Mola or Batty.

It's not as risky as bringing on Hirst and leaving Dack sat on the bench.

On Saturday all Northern rail trains from preston to blackburn are cancelled I don't know about from Manchester, but if they are operated by Northern Rail they will not be running.

If there was £4 to play with. It could be much better spent

For the u21s Mola has been mostly played at center-half, he looks uncomfortable there. When he moves to the left hand side and moves forward he is very good. He is strong in the challenge both on the ground and in the air. He is quite fast and picks out a good pass. Markanday has been used as a right winger/wide forward. He does not have a particular skill for going outside a defender and always seems to lose the ball. He hasn't got the strength to beat a defender by coming inside. What he has got is a good shot if he gets the ball in or around the penalty box. He might be useful in a forward central pairing. Both may or may not make it at Championship level.

Personally I think Mola is good enough now for the left full/wing back position. Batty in a couple of seasons, but could adequately fill in now if needs be. I agree about needing a reasonable striker. Markanday may fill that role if he is played through the center, but he is never a winger.

Already done it. And it was a more effective plait, than Hirst is a football player.
