21 July 2003

Kind of a quiet one today - there's not a single big story, just lots of itty-bitty news. Paul Groves has voiced fears to BBC Humber that there may not be room on the payroll for Jason Crowe once a new centre-forward is brought in. Discussions continue accordingly with two strikers, says Peter Furneaux, now that Clive Platt has been left for dead, or for Notts County, whichever fate is worse. Ouzo Osei and David Savage, the trialists who didn't do terribly well against Brigg Town last week, have been sent back to that London despite Osei being a mate of Steve Kabba's; but former Hull defender Michael Edwards, who did a bit better against Sunderland on Saturday, is still in contact with the Mariners, having briefly played alongside Graham Rodger as the Town assistant manager saw out his playing days with the Tigers in the late 90s. Small world.

Sonya Wilson of Leeds, meanwhile, wishes it to be known that she was stuck behind Town fans on her way to work this morning, somewhere along the route from Rodley to Farnley. So if that was you, then, er, I dunno - drive a bit faster tomorrow, or something.
