cheers for the great work as ever doug.


We have tried not to be too impatient with VK as she will have had plenty on her plate with all that's happened over the last few weks and with the weather disrupting everything. Once things get back to normal ( whatever that is) I will get in touch and see what's what.

I was starting to feel sorry from the players working late when I heard the V8s roar off at 5.30pm in that daft SKY bugger's report, sitting outside Carrington hoping to see Vieira in a blacked-out limo!

Thanks goodness they only started work at 3! Or was that the second session of the day Doug?


That was the first session of the day. Maybe they had another later!
The temperature dropped very quickly during the session though as the sun disappeared. I wonder if they have done anything at Platt Lane on the indoor pitch there?

Doug, do you think one day you could take a camera with you and snap some shots of the players, the fence, the general area you stand etc, it would be really interesting to see what you see.

There have been some pictures posted before from training sessions but not by me as I don't have a camera! ( or a mobile )
Anyway I don't think they are very keen on photos being taken but I will see what can be done if somebody else is there who has the technology :)

Ah but if we do it quieter by digging he can use the tunnel every day plus if we get an extension lead he can have a kettle in there.

Be funny if we had a long running thread on here pretending to be building a tunnel and waited to see if they could find it.

It doesn't end well for most of them. Need a good disguise as well as a good tunnel.
