The Ford Escort Thread - Footballers And Their Dagenham's
1960maaan replied to havanatopia's topic in Football Chat
A couple of years ago we had an old Metro as a second car and one morning the Mrs said she thought it had been broken into. Went to have a look and no damage , no mess and they had dropped some money when they were looking around for something to take -
The Ford Escort Thread - Footballers And Their Dagenham's

Had a1300 MK2 about '86 , really liked that car. My soon to be wife and then later ex wife (I prefer the latter ) asked one morning as she dropped me at work " how will I know if I run out of petrol" Then when free had an XR3i , went on a football club piss up and left it at the pub. Phone call early next morning saying it had be stolen , obviously a wind up I think and tell whoever it was to go away (I was very hungover). Thing is it was the Police and it had been nicked. Organised the insurance company to pick it up only to be told it had gone again ! There was just a scorch mark where it had been and I had to report it stolen again before I could claim . -
I feel I have to apologise in advance. I have been able to make five Saturday home games, W5 D0 L0 F13 A5 I can't really make mid week games so missed.... 2.....W0 D2 L0 F2 A2 + defeat if you add the Oxford game. Today I will be otherwise occupied and will miss a Saturday game. I do feel a little responsible if we drop points but, with luck and with it being a whole new City maybe we'll win without me. Today could be a good solid steady win , 2-0 and with Preston at Rochdale and Swindon at MK Franchise it could be a very good day.

City..............Preston Oldham (H)....Rochdale (A) Swindon (A)....Swindon (A) Preston (H)....Bradford (H) P'boro (A)....City (A) .....................Yeovil (A) Not sure what I'd want from next month , 6pts would be OK I think. For Preston , who are on a roll (7 wins on the spin ?) 9 maybe. An interesting month on the cards.

I don't think it's (necessarily) negativity . We've played , almost unchanged , all season in a high tempo pressing game. It makes sense to rotate the squad , I think Wilb's has looked tired in a couple of games late on and if we have the players why not use them. I'm not talking mass changes but why not give JET a start for Wilbs one week , then rest Elliot the next. It's just to try and keep them going for as long as possible. I very much doubt we'd get through the season playing just 14 players. The great thing is they keep going and no one will want a rest , We've not reached a third of the way into the season , there is a long way to go.
