Diary - Tuesday 14 September 2004

14 September 2004

QPR defender Terrell Forbes, who looks like he might be any good but faces a rape trial in November, is on his way to Blundell Park after his bail conditions were altered, allowing him to lodge at a Cleethorpes guesthouse. The player was released by the bluely hooped ones at the weekend after three years at Loftus Road and 130 appearances, and is reported to be headed for a deal with the Mariners following the decision of Old Bailey judge Brian Barker to change the terms of his bail, and just as the Diary is about to go to press the text messages coming out of the club are confirming it. Along with six other men, Forbes is charged with the rape in May of a 15-year-old girl.

Planet-straddling titan of Mariners history St Clive Mendonca is, as anticipated, set to attend Town's forthcoming League Cup tie with Charlton as a guest of the club. Whether the enigmatic Brazilian Cockney-Geordie will be available to be the best man at your wedding or heal your child's chickenpox with the touch of his strong yet gentle hand is unknown, but the Diary won't hear a word against GTFC's infallible official website now that they've plugged our Super Clive T-shirts.

Which reminds me: if Dave Coleman is reading, could you please email diary@codalmighty.com, as the email address you gave (in your feedback form entry about wanting to pay for a T-shirt by cheque) doesn't work. The Diary will then pass on your proper, real, working email address to the Cod Almighty fashionwear department, who will get back to you about paying by cheque. Thank you. That was a public information film.
