Diary - Thursday 9 January 2003

9 January 2003

Michael Boulding is back at Blundell Park, the official site reports. So far, the report doesn't say whether he's actually signed for us, is just using our training facilities, or had just nipped in a là Zhang Enhua to return the biro he'd borrowed off Livvo last April. However, one can't help but think that the rapid one is here to score 38 goals, propelling us to mid-table security, and winning the FA Cup along the way. Sorry, getting carried away again.

In other, rather bizarre news, Coventry have reassured fans that academy director and goalkeeping legend Steve Ogrizovic is not being held hostage by the Kazakhstan government. It was claimed that he was arrested for being a spy while on a charity walk around the world, but this has been strenuously denied by Mr O. "I can only assume that with the well-documented breakthroughs in science of late, I have obviously been cloned," he said, rather humorously.

While we're on the subject though, the Diary would just like to make it clear to everyone that both youth team coach Neil Woods and assistant groundsman Dean Wright have not been abducted by aliens. Got that? It didn't happen.
