He could end up at Vicarage Road.
Could also end up at The Abbey, Cambridge

Perhaps either of the St. James Park's may be an option?

Is that why he was fired? Because he's a loose canon?
That would be an ecumenical matter.

Surely is a foregone conclusion he will end up at the Minstermen?

I heard he is keen on staying in the north-east. Perhaps Bishop Auckland could be in for him?

Hopefully the misprint is a good omen as we got promoted from the "Canon" League Division 4 in 1984/5

He could get a move to Bournemouth. Sure he would enjoy praying, sorry playing, at Dean Court.

Priestfield Stadium, Nuneaton or maybe a trip to the South coast for the Pilgrims?

Lets not forget we are The Quakers so maybe we would be the right place for a loose canon.

Strange times as normally the players would all have been recruited, they'd be now back in training & we'd be looking forward to pre-season friendlies.

I assume after the play offs (if and when they go ahead) some of AAs targets will become available

Can only be York City I would imagine.2 that have been rumoured are Nicky Hunt and Adam Wright's on, Hunt may have signed for Ashton and Wrightson has been offered terms by Blyth but nothing on whether he has signed for them.Another player mentioned is Alex Pattison, a Darlo lad who is at Wycombe, again not sure if he has been released.

I was queuing for a haircut this morning & I was talking to a chap who's been going to watch Darlo for years. He said that we are trying to get a keeper from Wigan, who was born in this area, but he didn't know his name. Also no surprise to hear that we are after O.Neill from Boro.

We aren't in for Wrightson, that was a red herring.

Queuing for a haircut pete hope it was by appointment as that is how hairdressers have been allowed to open, no queues, appointment only. With P.P.E in place.

Dunno where he was born, but Bobby Jones would be a guess. Ex Boro youth, now at Wigan, on loan at Farsley for a bit last season.

Any Barber will be far too busy, and be making too much money, to play for us any time soon. :D :roll:
