Nice bit of additional insight here (from @aaron_challoner on Twitter) about County's new man. #ncafc 🧡🖤

"Great signing, but does he pass the bastard test?", you're wondering. We've spent recent months saying that what we really lacked last season was a bastard. Well here's the expert view of our Bastard Correspondent on whether the new man fits the bill. #ncafc 🧡🖤

Yeah, feels like a marquee signing, the classic "statement of intent". Fully expecting the majority of signings to be raw 22-year-olds, but if can blend that with two or three more of this calibre then there's real room for optimism (at last!).

Think I saw it at Stockport, but I guess it's in a lot of Third / Fourth Division bogs by now!

Remember seeing this a few years ago at an away game, and thinking about how committed you'd have to be to your hatred of Darrell Clarke to walk into your local printer's and say "Morning Trevor, could you print me off another thousand of the Darrell Clarke Wanks Off Dogs stickers please?"

Yeah, logically we'd buy season tickets for the theatre / cinema, where even if we don't like what we watch, the experience is still much more dependable AND you're warm.

Yeah, it's definitely another gamble, no question. I suppose in our favour is that Mr Jenkins' track record of making appointments over the last 20-odd years is good. But we need to recruit a few quality players, especially with at least two experienced pros having left this week.

"WHEN YOU'RE FINISHED WITH THAT, WOULD YOU MIND BEING CARDIFF CITY MANAGER FOR A FEW WEEKS?"

They've got a rich sugar-daddy, haven't they? We are having done to us what we diid to other clubs during the Lotto Les years, I guess. We voted en-masse for Jenkins' vision of austere sustainability, I guess that means sticking to a wage structure without exception.

Ha! How funny! It was a piece about Gianni Infantino demanding his own Panini sticker, written by Max Rushden. Is it too much to imagine that FIFA's lawyers have got involved, the over-sensitive pricks...?

It's not a great look, for sure. Mistakes happen, but it needs resolving quickly and the ban lifted to show that there's no complacency.
