Looks like Edmundson had a bit of a bruise in his face here
at 13:08 23 Jan 2022

Occupational hazard of his position, especially yesterday.

Big match today
at 07:05 22 Jan 2022

There was a minor overreaction to last Saturday and, before that, a slight overreaction to two good wins. Today though is a match that we really should be winning if we are to have any chance of the play-offs.

We made a few too many mistakes last week which was why we lost so hopefully the performance is more like Sunderland and Wycombe. A decent crowd should help there too.

Accrington are physical and direct but nowhere near as effective on a larger pitch, just need to concentrate defensively.

Anyway, now to deal with a crap combination of a reduced train service and rail replacement buses.

Nice piece on following big matches from afar.
at 12:21 13 Jan 2022

I can relate to some of it from being at the other end of the country in the days when internet access meant going to the library at uni but, obviously, a few of you are far further away.

Amazingly a family member of Johnson has covid
at 09:38 13 Jan 2022

So he has had to cancel engagements:

NEW: It doesn’t get any better for Boris Johnson.

He’s had to cancel a visit to Lancashire today due a family member testing positive for Covid-19.

No 10 say, “He will follow the guidance for vaccinated close contacts, including daily testing and limiting contact with others."

I luckily got a ticket when the original match was postponed, heading via Rochester for a decent pub and some food before getting soaked.

Really should win this, hopefully by a couple of goals to be comfortable. COYFB.
