    It was good to see the crowd was up by a couple of thousand on Saturday, a shame they weren't rewarded the sort of performance likely to encourage a return, but at least the Palace game is a Cat C, so the prices are:

    £20 Adults
    £10 Seniors (65+) & 16-22 year-olds
    Juniors (11-15) from £3
    Juniors (10 and under) from £1

    No excuses, get yer sen down there. <ok>

    Bollocks, I would have come down for it if it wasn't a midweek game. Still haven't made it to the KC since the Millwall game <cry>

    £20 for the Palace ? Bargain for those without passes. Should be a belter as Palace play a very open game. Murray suspended is a Brucie bonus.

    Murray suspended is a bonus, who is their reserve striker?

    My money is on goal scoring machine Aaron Wilbraham being up top.

    The last league game Wilbraham started was in August, he normally comes on at the death...

    Leeds - 89 minutes
    Derby - 89 minutes
    Posh - 80 minutes
    Leicester - 89 minutes
    Charlton - 87 minutes

    He's probably getting a bit hacked off at playing three or four minutes every week.

    Something I've been thinking about lately...

    Footballers always have a specially prepared 'pre-match' meal, as I understand it.

    I imagine this is put together with just the right grammage of protein/carbohydrate/sugars/salts etc so the player will be fuelled for 90 mins of football.

    If you happen to be a player who only ever plays 2 mins at the end of a game, you're never gonna burn that off, and after a time would it not end up storing as fat?

    This would be bad news for a professional sportsman.

    But then, if you said to them "you're only having one spoonful of rice and two flakes of fish" then they'd know they were not in the plans again, and morale would be sapped.

    Do these kind of scenarios occur, or am I thinking about something unimportant?

    I can't think of anything worse than knowing you've ingested a surplus of calories that the body has no use for, hence is gonna make one fat. Would they be given the full meal, then not play, and be ordered to get on the treadmill for 2 hours? A further insult.

    Fitness and nutrition, it's complex, especially when you throw in the morale curveball.

    Maybe Alex Bruce is allergic to his, it would explain a lot.

    But they train several days a week, so it'll get burnt off.

    Also, the actual 'pre-match' meal is usually something light just to keep them ticking over. It's not like they're piling on a load of **** just for the match.
