Diary - Friday 4 March 2005

4 March 2005

A quick Friday update from the Leeds Cod Almighty office. I know it is late. I had an overly-long paid-for lunch (ten quid for working an extra 20 hours on non-overtime pay this week? er, ta) and, y'know, the going rate at CA Towers is below minimum wage (apparently payment by Mars bars isn't recognised under EU law) so I thought I might as well pig out.

A quick scoot at the OS is in order then... You might have mistaken the OS for this fanzine recently. First, Simon Wilsons's has a rubbishly written email republished on said site, then Pete Greens's has his GET column reprinted. Cuh. Why not pay us and we'll do it for free? That garlic bread is starting to repeat on me so I need to speed this up...

Right, team news for tomorrow. Predictably Jason Crowes and Michael Reddys are out. Danny Norths has recovered for a virus. David Soameses (who looked like he was wearing a corset in Tuesday's game, such was the size of his upper chest) might get a chance. But - rejoice, rejoice, Emmanuelles! - Ronnie Bulls could be back! Ah shit, hang on. That's not right. Still, he's a dad for "the second time". Weird that as I thought once you're a dad for the first time, you're a dad for life. There's lots of speculating about people swapping positions - Maccas to right wing, Parkinsons up front - but you could do that amongst yourselves, surely.

Is that it? Er, apart from Russell Slades's tips, that seems to be the case. Crikey. Time for an "Up the Mariners!" then. Have a good weekend.
