Hope you get somewhere.

Unfortunately Ariel started in 1984 so a bit late for your Uncle. She did recall him and his beard though! She suggested that 'the best shot is for someone who has access to their programmes to scan or photograph a couple of pages' which is line with the advice on here. Unfortunately her programmes are in storage.

I'll message Ariel Friedlander who was the club photographer in the 80s. Not sure her archive goes back that far but will check.

Good luck with it all - you're doing an excellent thing. Second Dave and Clive's recommendations. Chris Guy especially will be a good reference point.

Very minor correction - it was RND, not Vale who headed against the post on the stroke of half-time.

Adored that challenge.

Don't underestimate the impact of Kone's physicality on their defence. It saps defenders physically and mentally. Not a coincidence that the same defender was utterly befuddled by Saito on the edge of the box for his winner.

Finally saw a win!

That's some run.

A mate was over from New Zealand, one of the old ASB fraternity. Generally makes a trip back every few years, although am unsure what number trip this was.

He saw his first home win in 20 years on Saturday.

Great review. Loving it.

On Field, what do his critics make of the Leeds game? When we looked our best under Cifuentes, he was integral to it. Hayden didn't play.

Well now there's a first for a comparison.

For those asking. Few have also asked about Charlie Kelman supposedly being out of contract this summer. He's not. Signed a contract in Jan last year.

Much as it would be hilarious, surely Steve Gallen has been round the block too many times to fall for Mick's powerpoint and his schtick?

Norwich losing heads, ref good and Morrisson lucky

I was right by it too Dave. It wasn't intentional at all - he missed his kick thanks to the wind and his arm was naturally counterbalancing his weight. Wouldn't have been given 5 years ago, but there's all that unnatural position stuff now. The irony being, it was a totally natural movement - a counterbalance. What save him was it was in line with his body and I'm not sure (without checking the highlights) that the ref had a clear view.

It was right on the touchline and looked like the ball would have gone out anyway, so would have been harsh.

Again, not dissimilar to Watford last week mind which looked a pen on highlights, the difference being the conditions and where it occurred (inside not outside shoulder near the touchline).

@BristolR I'll be driving back to Thornbury way after the game if you get stuck...

Yes, next summer according to a couple of the vaguely reliable wage sites.

We should be having a what if conversation informlly now. Let him know he'd be wanted, nothing more. Possible Cook replacement long term and captain material. Always loved him. Left when he needed to move on and was one of our few sellable assets. Came through the youth system, can play multiple positions, absolute specimen, family ties to the club, still only 27 what is not to like?

This suggests he was amenable to taking a wage cut when needed

Trouble is WBA fans and club have come round to him finally. Might be his next contract we try to nick him back. Or if they go up and fancy an upgrade this time round. Otherwise I can't see him leaving.

Loftus Road renovation/revamp
at 16:15 27 Sep 2023

Bzzz challenge.

I've worked on both Twickenham and Wembley. Both stadia let you on the pitch for production. Can prove it with photos or you can just take my word.

LR could in theory do this. The last block of safe standing is removable for pitch renovations. It would be tight but from memory you can just about get an HGV through.

Watch at 33secs of the pitch renovation video
And 3mins 15 secs in. That's some pretty big kit on the pitch.
