    There's an article on the guardian.co.uk website today. Perhaps someone more tech-savvy than I can provide the link.

    Thanks.

    A good article, I just wonder whether he will be playing his next game for us or not? I hope the Allam's give him a chance to get back, but we know them, they don't do things with a sympathetic mind, it will come down to money. Good luck to him, he has had his fair share of bad luck, hopefully, he can put it behind him now and get a good run of games under his belt.

    You have to feel for him in particular, after all he's battled and come through, the season is jacked in so he has to wait longer. Really hope the club see him right.

    I wonder if there are any gems in the defunct National Leagues that we may look at ...

    The Allams have made 1001 bad decisions during their their time at City, but I don't see them as mean with deserving causes.

    They have a fundamental inability to understand why people like football and what antagonises supporters.

    Idiosyncratic, eccentric, vindictive, selfish but they do have a generous gene when it comes to people they think need/deserve it.

    The OSC Pub Quiz fundraisers are for the Angus MacDonald Foundation and Tigers Trust. We have a plan coming up shortly to support both of these good causes.

    We're still chasing Festus Arthur at Stockport last I heard. Couldn't get a deal done in January as Stockport wanted more than we thought he was valued at. So now we can get him on a free.

    Your sister is your mother,
    Your father is your brother,
    You over value one another,
    We'll get him on a free...

    I applaud their generosity when it comes to providing support for hospitals etc around the area. However, my point was that when it comes to players, I'm not so sure they would be willing to keep a player on just because he has had a tough time. They will probably offer him a low figure and see if he accepts, but rightly if he can get a better deal elsewhere, then he will be on his way. As with Moses, he had had a tough time, missed the EPL season, but was offered from what I hear a poor deal, and he decided he would go elsewhere.

    For the above reason I was pointing out that Angus may not play his next game in a city shirt, I hope he does, but as always TWT.

    The pub quiz last night was great. We were joined by Angus and a team from Tigers Trust joined in as well.
    £175 was raised to be split between Tigers Trust and The Angus MacDonald Foundation.
    We used Zoom and it really worked well. It felt like a proper pub quiz rather than just a quiz, if that makes sense. Our team was 250 miles apart but we still worked together.
