Well, if rumours are to be believed, ED was at the game today. I'm not sure how regular an occurrence that is, but the optimist in me would like to believe that it means questions are being asked.

He attends.......rarely. More rarely in the past few seasons too.

Flirt for me now.

My 'give him ten games' was based on the hope he'd have us knocking about at 1.5ppg and in touch. That clearly isn't going to happen now. International break to do it in.

How'd it would work out but it clearly isn't. Tara and good luck.

Might be a sign then. If he was at the game, he was there for another reason other than the football. he attends maybe 1 or 2 games a season.

He still gets to about one in three home games and a few away, most usually London ones.

Well I see him, sitting in the VI seats more or less opposite where I sit and he's there reasonably often. Certainly not onceevery blue moon.

Enough not to be a fully fledged 'armchair supporter'.

Well, that is good. I'd heard different but glad to hear he is still coming.

McGinley was on GMR today and didn't pull his punches. Very direct about his view that for the past 2 years we've been set out unadventurously and more with an eye not to lose than to give it a go. That it's joyless and us losing fans and the need to switch on the fans, the town and the community again has to be a priority. He is of the view that it's time he went.

He suggested Phil Brown with Roch somewhere around. Not sure that's workable but certainly agree with his first part.

Nonsense. How else do you explain him not sacking Beckford??

Is it telling that, nearly 2 hours after full time, we still haven't had Dougie's post-match views?

Nothing on Twitter, nothing on Facebook, nothing official from the club from him at all, yet...

On their official twitter account, for the Brighton game this time last week, the first Freedman quote was tweeted at 19:04. So maybe not.
I miss Zat Knight already.

Two minutes to wait, then. It's like the night before Christmas when you're 6.

Things are looking up!

Is 'on the bounce' Freedman code for 'before the season ends'?
