    Six I hope - back to the winning combination!

    Cold up here too - took my son to work an hour ago & had to drive through more of the cold, white fluffy stuff. :(

    A day fit for a big pot of coffee, a good book and some Jon Marks this afternoon methinks.

    You never know with GFZ BB - he likes to tinker. But I expect him to put our strongest team out today and get back to winning ways and maintain the pressure on the pack.
    Hopefully a few results will go our way as well- I am starting to look at other teams results

    Yeh - I am a granddaddy again - the first grandson (third grandchild) arrived this morning at 7.38 - wonder if he will be able to get to the Vic for later :)

    That's a good feeling for you and Mrs L. <ok>

    Wonder if it is too late for him to be a mascot? ;)

    His silly father is a Mancunian and supports the Reds so I will need to get in there with some colours quickly

    Many congrats to all the family Lenny, but especially to you and Mrs Lenny - must be a wonderful feeling to see the next generation coming on. Start slowly and quietly into making sure he is a little hornet...

    Hoping for 3 points and a pile of goals for you to toast alongside the new addition tonight.

    First things first - got your predictions entered H - only Lloydinio, emiatts and Al4-Hornet have not posted who usually do now

    He is Edward and weighed in at a robust eight and a half pounds at 7.38 this morning. We are off to drop our puppy (Dizzy) at the kennels this afternoon and will drive down to Guildford tomorrow morning for a couple of days.

    Just realised that we have eight players away on International duty during next week - could put a bit of a strain on the team next Friday against promotion rivals. I don't suppose Sky or the FL particularly care about that though. :(

    Of course they don't. £125,000 no doubt is a sum that we cannot turn down, but seeing as non of the games are important I might find that a lot of my players had picked up little niggles which would disappear by Friday.

    haha! No...not nachos ;)...it's ...pride...but more.. yiddish is often hard to translate lol

    Apparently we could ask for the match to be postponed if there's more than 3...but i doubt that's an option because of the sky money, and the fact that we don't want to clog the season with unplayed matches..though we're a match ahead so i think it would have been a good option personally!

    Congratulations, Leo...I became a great uncle on Friday though my nephew, also a season ticket holder, has declined to call his daughter Hornetta.
