If it helps, I am more worried about the books than The Book.

Gonna ask a question, coz you've more than hinted at this a few times. Does his religion get in the way of his job? Because if it doesn't, I'm happy to leave him to it.. People are religious in different ways and for different reasons. Ian's extreme fervour wasn't apparent until after he had a fair...

One thing he did directly comment on post match, "it's probably the first time I can't argue against the narrative of not turning up in a big game" I can only conclude he musta been having a sickie for a few. Wigan was horrendous. That's a state of denial. That felt more like covering his own arse,...

It’s not Cogley alone. But there are singular points of failure in this system and one of the most common ones, beyond Sheehan, is the wing backs. To make this work we’d need considerably better ones. It’s also noticeable how much Cogley faded as the season went on. That will keep happening because...

But I think over time I’ve realised that Evatt’s particular ego is a front to cover up his own self doubt. Did the self-help books and "Jesus needs me to be in the Premier League" not give it away to you on day one? Doubt is healthy. Avoiding it is the weakness. If Evatt can stop avoiding it it'll ...

I think one thing that has been demonstrated beyond any reasonable doubt is that as good an egg as Cogley is he is in no way up to being a regular RWB for a side with ambitions of exiting league one in a positive direction. I like him. I think he never lets you down. But looking at the league next ...

One of me mates' sons landed his 1st pro, so he's pretty happy with it. Alongside what you say Ghost, wonder if Jerome's non-contract for "upstairs gig" is tied to us not making it up a rung? Not surprised other than that. Congrats to the kid. Huge moment for any young man. It may well be a case of...

Which is the mistake? I can’t see any argument for keeping any of the three. I really liked BOD as a player, but he’s always injured, takes an age to get going when he is fit, and then misses a lot of chances nowadays.

Clearly means Jerome.

Ian has ruined TD's favourite chant

GhostoftheBok

Same applies to Conor Carty, so we’ll see. I wrote a whole thing and deleted it for being a bit self-indulgent, but the basic gist was that we are likely to have budget issues this season after the fan loan splurge and may therefore need to patch the squad up and make do. Cogley was in the TotY, so...

Also interesting is Luke Matheson on the senior retained list, with Evatt having said he will play a part next season in previous pressers.

Would require a squad place.

Confirmed that Bod, Jerome and Declan John have been released.

Interesting that Jerome is just leaving. No other role announced.

The blessed Retained List, in all her glory...

"The Great Blanking"...FFS.

Coming out in public to tell a kid to man up was worse than this and that was also nothing.

I am guessing that’s from Saturday post match - I don’t think he’s popped up and done an interview since?

Marc saving quotes to use for the next couple of weeks, you'd imagine.

He’s another midget you say! We could pick a team of Oompa Loompas and dress santos up as Willy wonka.

Couple of inches shorter than Sheehan, I'd imagine.

Keeps the medical staff in work!

So many positives.

He's also about the same size as my 11-year-old. So I can buy him one of the auction shirts he can actually wear.

Yeah he sounds ideal tbf

Less pressure on the Lostock pitches if none of the lads can train.

What I will say is that if we signed players like Liam Walsh and then Evatt complained about injuries I'd be tempted to have him sectioned.

GhostoftheBok

New link to the "Merseyside Messi" Liam Walsh, formerly of Everton and most recently Swans. Had his only season of note at Coventry when they won League One. 26. Never been able to stay fit. Possibly the most "We have no money and are in the League One, but have ambition" signing possible. Could eit...

I doubt much is going on. People will be on holidays. Am sure a retained list will follow. If Markham is on holiday it'll be a quick one. Usually the busiest time of year in that department. Retained list has to land soon, per the rules. I'd like a settler in through the door, but I imagine an anno...
