Diary - Friday 1 October 2004

1 October 2004

The news in brief from your Unspecial Diary, plugging a pube-filled drain at the very last second:

Darren Mansarama is joining Halifax Town on loan for a second month. This time he can be recalled at 24 hours' notice, "if we have an injury crisis for instance" prophesises Gypsy Russell, not ruling out all of our forwards become really, really shit. The pearly one also looks into his crystal ball for Dazza's future and is seemingly uncertain as to whether it is at Blundell Park: "The more Darren impresses and scores goals in the Conference, the more chance he has of getting in my first team or somebody else's first team in the Football League." So, Wigan it is.

In case you've forgotten, Town are having tomorrow off...by playing tonight (yes, we know - Friday nights are rubbish blah blah blah). Team news? St. Thomas Aquinas is doubtful suffering from a groin problem. Terry Fleming is doubtful suffering from a stamped-on problem. Chris Williams, whichever useless loanee he was, has been recalled by Stockport and, hence, won't figure. Work pressures mean there isn't a preview for this game, but word from the man is "a summary? If we lose this then we can officially be dubbed 'erratic'."

There isn't time to check over Trevor Green's predictable bile on the Grimsby Telegraph site as it is time for me to get off to bed. Well, if Town are going to steal my early night I need to get the sleep back somwhere.
