Diary - Wednesday 21 December 2005

21 December 2005

It's gone two o'clock; the Diary has to go and do some Christmas cooking; Town's recently postponed game at Darlington has been rescheduled for Tuesday 17 January; speaking of fixtures, Cod Almighty's Simon Wilson is quoted in an excellent piece in today's Guardian by the superb David Conn about DataCo, the people who want to charge CA and all the other non-profit-making fanzines out there £266 per year plus VAT to publish them; Alan Lamb and Miles Chamberlain have helped Eastwood Town beat Brigg 2-0; Hull don't want to sign Rob Jones, not even to play him as a striker; and Tony Butcher has emailed the Diary to say that if Simon Yeo thinks New Zealand is almost like being abroad, then he's right. "As we all know Kiwiland is like Britain 30 years ago, so the past is a foreign country. They do things differently there, especially pronouncing the important word 'chips'. As Kiwipeople say, 'cheap orange juice substitute'. Or should that be Kia Ora?" Absolutely. Thanks. See you tomorrow!
