Great for you to have gone in, Doug!!

Let's hope Ireland really had a spring in his step, and that if he plays tomorrow he will finally do it like we know he has the ability to.

Nice one Doug. Good to hear Ireland's looking happy & that Mancini has realised how important it is for him to be in your good books.

hahaha nah its top of bob to do that. Its only right though, you're there every frigging session, so they should bloody treat ya now and again.

Was their any maffia style warnings to keep schtum on tactics?


Well quite a few acknowledged me as they left the field which was nice but when Bellamy made eye contact I said " I have finally got inside" and his reply was yeah but there was nothing to see ! Gotta love Bellers but he was right as today wasn't a tactical team day.Not that I cared.

Reverend Chris? Young-ish with glasses? I've been to his Church pre-Match on a Sunday. There's quite a few Clubs with a Chaplain now.

Great report there Doug, it's nice of Mancini to finally let you on the other side of the fence let's hope it lasts.

He'd be more of a support than a Supporter. Club Chaplain's aren't usually on the payroll so they can be confidential with whoever they speak to.

Nice Guy.

A couple of minutes later Kiddo came over and told me the boss says to come round and inside to watch the training. After the walk around and obligatory wait at the gate as they didnt believe me I got inside and watched from just alonside the pitch. Sweet!



Unbelievable! I went there for a few days during the holiday but they didnt say anything then today they say you can go in. WHAT!

Nah seriously you earned it Doug. Nice one mate. Bet that was great. But shame i wasnt their. I would have forced bellamy to come over and shake your hand and order him to sign stuff. He isnt a hard one. :)

But nah great news and hopefully it does become a permanent thing.

Beautiful mate. Do you reckon it's because someone is checking out the sites or because they see you everyday?

PS. Your report was shite, you've been turned ;-)
