    Just to let you know I will be unavailable for a match thread tomorrow night due to previous arrangements. My next game will be Bury, as I'm also out this coming Saturday. Apologies to all.

    Making plans when you're supposed to be on duty? You're taking the piss Red.

    Working in London today. On a training course so in jeans and a comfy shirt. Beautiful evening. Got to go past the valley on the way home on the train. No other plans for the evening. Am I going? Am I f.........

    Really excited to be back painfree in full training with the lads! Buzzing to make my first appearance in this season soon!

    Anyone care to give odds on how long that will last?

    I dragged myself to Orient on Saturday to avoid paying for a ticket at the valley tonight. It will be a long time until I pay for a ticket there. Will be another worrying evening I imagine.

    Mass walk out planned for kick off, as we will have conceded zero goals this season.

  • Lee Novak misses out with a broken hand, obviously.

    Can we extend our longest unbeaten run since those glory days of Guy Luzin?

    Will any more first team players have left before kick-off?

    Will our youngest player have reached puberty by 7-45pm?

    The excitement mounts.

    I heard he was asked to go in Goal and broke his hand after trying to stop a Simon Church (back on trial) thunderbolt of a shot

    Bit of team info and trialist update in that piece too. Gobern working on fitness and won't feature v Ipswich.

    If a trialist isn't fit enough to feature for part of a friendly 11 days out, during which he can be replaced at any time, it's hard to see how he'll be fit enough to play at Bury even if signed.

    Are we not supposed to have two new players including a keeper signed and sealed in time for this? They haven't learned a thing, have they? Gonna be fielding an even weaker squad than the last two years.

    As tempting as paying to see a meaningless friendly against Ipswich is I think I'm going to pass on going to it. I hope the club doesn't think i'm weird.

    Roll on Bury away.

    Really doesn't reflect very well on Gobern if as a free agent 11 days before the season starts he isn't deemed fit enough to play any part in a pre-season friendly.

    Surely the bare minimum you'd expect a free agent to do is keep himself reasonably up to speed? Foley, Crofts and Buxton were able to. Why wasn't he?

    Does seem a poor reflection on him. Maybe he's been injured? With Rolands track record we'll probably offer him a 4 year deal.
