Really enjoyed it. Did you get to chat to Pat at all? I like him on the radio. Hope he’s a nice guy.

Myth or legend? Both, of course. Celebrate THAT Kieran Green goal for #gtfc again and again with 14 lines of adulatory poetry

Thank you! I admit it was a lot of fun to write.

The last two doctors have been thrown under the bus by writers who were, perhaps, enjoying themselves too much.

Is a favourite player always the best or most effective? #gtfc

He was awesome. Hummed with the ball.

Artell wants to make things more certain. First and foremost he’s a coach who wants to have a greater level of control and we’re working towards that. It’s exciting, right now.

Turgid feels very harsh, some of the patterns in our play are things of beauty.

Thanks. His consistency was remarkable given how much we struggled.

A bonus that we should’ve grabbed with two hands. So frustrating that we let him go.

Thanks. Not sure anyone has excelled unless we include Dean Henderson. Milenhall is another we shouldn’t have let go and if we’d kept Crcocombe we’d have saved ourselves quite a few headaches.
