This week John manages only a passing mention of Bury FC and instead is worrying again about the future of Hartlepool United – he really is a pessimist at times – although he’d argue that he is a realist! The sooner we find a new contributor the better!

A clearly unwell John this week makes complimentary comments about Steve Gibson. And then goes back to Bury………..

Courtesy of our wonderful corporate members Kyle Travel Services HUST can today launch an amazing holiday prize draw, where one lucky ticket holder will win an amazing holiday to Dubai!

This week John has a strange way of looking forward to the Daggers game – but then he has always been weird! Anyway, he really does appear to be softening in his views of the likes of bury and Locomotive Darlington.

This week John gets a bit provocative about the need for change within the game and, to be brutal, why a club needs to fail to garner the necessary changes! And why it needs to be a big club. He doesn’t mention Manchester United, but we know what he’s thinking.
