I wonder what they're up to - other than yet again repainting the names on the office doors - can anyone shed any light?

    I daresay it was to finally clear up the mess following one of Iain Dowie's patented morale boosting first team food fights.

    Perhaps its some top secret training method, showing how to pass and trap a ball on big screens, whilst they sip their cuppas... how to shoot (from inside the box), how to get inside the box.. etc?

    I wish I was privy to such sensitive inside information! ;-)

    Have they finished all the works with the new pitches etc? The "major" development that we were told about last year?

    Come to think of it - I KONW they haven't done the exit road onto Footscray Rd,

    Well it could be that he thinks it will create a better and more effiecient working environment. If I was a management coach and one of my clients did that I might also think they were trying to stamp their identity on the physical environment to differentiate themselves from their predecessors. But that's just a theory and it is more likely that the canteen is very cramped and that there's not enough space for everyone especially when you add all the new signings.

    I hope that's not a crude insinuation about our women's team being free with their sexual favours. Shame on you letting your sisters down like that, B.

    what on earth has sexual favours got to do with decorators?

    I think he's missed the point. As a euphemism I am a big fan of "having the painters in". My personal favourite though is "Aunite Joan is coming to stay".

    obviously my mind is a sewer to have read it "are in" the wrong way ;-)

    Ahem,.........as I'm not a world authority on the trials and tribulations of being a lady, I'll just slip quietly back to topic.

    This changing the canteen around can only mean one thing - Andy Reid is back in training.........
    No less an authority than Pards has said so.

    And keeping Reidy supplied with pies has obviously 'eaten' into the £3 million January window money.

    Let's hope he doesn't become to bloated or we might have to start calling him auntie JOAN.

    Not enough room for everyone and Jimmy's arse you mean.
