They Thought it was All Over ..... But Maybe It Isn't!

Wrong time of the year for the Ostrich to be having his fevvers clipped - he'll catch his death in this weather. Speaking of weather, it is lovely up here, but as there are no noises coming from the direction of the YMCA pitches I guess that a lot of our lower level games are off as well. There are usually lunchtime and early afternoon kick offs at this time of year, but not a peep.

The cricketers also use the all-weather nets on Sundays so it will interesting to see if they turn up or whether the T3 rules have put paid to them as well.

Obviously me and Joe won’t be at Old Trafford today. Didn’t really expect to be but it was nice to have a little glimmer of hope for a while.

No football and no cricketers - it's quieter than the graveyard.

Jo, I thought that the tightening of T3 rules meant that fans had been barred again? I cannot find any mention of fans on either website.

Blimey, your Yorkshire cricketers must be a dedicated lot, WM, practicing in the nets in December ....

I would have thought Man Utd would be BCD, Jo ....

That’s what I meant Frank, the applications were opened in case Manchester went into Tier 2 (and obviously our area would’ve had to move down a tier too for us to travel). Is it now only Liverpool and Everton in the Prem who are still in 2?
It was just nice to put the applications in last week and have that little bit of hope for a few days

Well that could have gone better.
Six offside goals given against us though - absolutely shocking!

With the way our defence have played this season we were still thinking a draw could be possible at 88 minutes.
