Looking back they were on a good run prior to 16th December. Coincidentally, his previous club is on the same amount of points as Cardiff. https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/55484329

Saturday 23rd January Aston Villa 3-1 Newcastle (20:00) This game was omitted from the weekend 4/5/6 December because of COVID cases. Just looked it up. Added date for clarity.

Not due to play until 26th January against Newport County. An EFL investigation is taking place as well. https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/55665631

Glad it is helping. Walking makes me feel better both physically and mentally. I have lost over a stone so far and am using the lock down to get my weight down. By the time my brother sees me again, he won't recognize me... :heehee:

Continuing the walks. I walked 1510.5 miles last calendar year. Hopefully that will increase this year. When normality returns, hopefully I will resume the swimming. Stay safe everyone.

Much as I love hats (as can be seen from the user name), yes it is time to say good bye to the hats.

Joey Barton has left Fleetwood Town with immediate effect. Seems to be a bit of restructuring going on with other staff including the director of football departing. https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/55534954

Port Vale have sacked John Askey. Haven't won in the league since 5th December and no win since 8th December (EFL Trophy). https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/55535613

Dealt with internally. Think a dose of reality might shock these players into behaving themselves. Seem to be quite a few in the Coronavirus Hall of Shame from what I have read over the past 9/10 months of restrictions.

Looking at the possible circuit break they are talking about, surely a bit of sense is required? It is a contact sport, but surely some of it can be avoided. The post goal celebrations and giving each other high fives before kick off are very risky given the COVID situation, plus the managers shaking hands before and after the match.

Grimsby have reappointed Paul Hurst to succeed Ian Holloway. https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/55492228

Indeed they have, just 10 games. https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/55471175

Indeed he has. I wondered about whether he would continue as he was rather outspoken beforehand about unity. https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/55422585 Barrow have appointed Michael Jolley as manager to replace David Dunn. https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/55431694
