He's lucky to be alive, he looks to be 110. First saw him 40 odd years ago, now I think about it he looked the same then.
Yes, Dad was in the Army stationed in Rheindahlen (Monchengladbach) where he met my Mum and where I was subsequently born. I didn’t live in England (other than a couple of months in Blackpool) until I was eight. Dad was from Barton but we initially settled in Pocklington for three years, then Gilberdyke three years, then Swanland (you see where this is going), by the time they moved to North Ferriby, I’d left home to work and live in Barton. They followed about five years later. Dad took me to my first match at Boothferry very soon after we arrived in England in the summer of 1969, hence the user name.
Many different ways of re-entering play. Many teams play from the back and are successful. There is a potential argument there is as much risk playing direct
I wonder if we'll hear anything official today. It seems to have gone a bit quiet on Walter. Bets still not suspended either which is interesting.
Maybe one of the "50 applicants" we are supposed to have had is an outstanding candidate? Big Vern will be along later to update us I suspect!
I doubt it'll be today, I have a meeting with the club at the stadium this afternoon which would have been cancelled if there was a big announcement coming.
