Felipe Morais will not play for Grimsby Town again after his involvement in being headbutted by one of his own team. He is contracted till the end of next season.

What's happening to the guy dishing out headbutts? 

Edit: I've just seen on the BBC website that neither will play for them again.

Sad to see that Frank Worthington passed away today, a real character from a bygone age and some player too - any kids with the kind of flair and flamboyancy he had would soon find it coached out of them these days. I suppose it's stretching it a bit to call him an ex-player, but I remember him turning out for us in Jimmy Frizzell's testimonial so I think he just about counts . He was a big mate of Joe's and was often spotted outside the ground on matchdays wearing his cowboy hat . RIP

Frank was different gravy. I remember that testimonial appearance, he was on a different level to the rest of our side that night. 

RIP Elvis.

Ex youth keeper Ellis Allen is now a free agent. 19yo, big and strong, good in the air 

Think I'd take him back.

As is Lewis McKinney. He's keeping himself fit training at Salford. If we are struggling for quality youth products for the match day squad, I would definitely bring him back. 

Doyle  - I love the song.

To be fair he managed to bring Rowe in to a COVID conversation 

He did but is trying to blame it on someone called Magic Mickey. Doesn't take much scrolling back to check. I'm going to start a thread saying black is black and see if he contradicts me.

You still haven’t told me what one is and yes it was you who raised the issue of the understanding of the concept and reality of bubble.

 

as for disinterested and uninterested. I described Rowe as disinterested . Ie he showed no investment  in Oldham Athletic .....entirely different to being uninterested . I am surprised you wish to reprise your spectacular own goal 

And I'm out.

So the rules in the school bubble are different to rules of the footballers bubble which are different that to the rules of the  cricketers bubble which are different to rules of  the childcare bubble.   Getting a bit complicated for something so obvious ?   

You are still not offering a simple definition of what you say is obvious 

I have never said it was obvious. I was genuinely surprised you didn't understand them. I was genuinely surprised that you don't know the difference between uninterested and disinterested. I'm genuinely not surprised that your trying to argume a point that I never raised.

That is not the point as you know nor is it a definition of a bubble which you say is obvious.  Indeed it is nonsensical given that at 3.00 your kids stop being a bubble and get on the school bus with the same kids you have spent 6 hours segregating them from . Can the kids hug each other ? 

Yes it is.

No they don't.

That's against the rules.

Are the kids in your school operate  in a bubble? You use the term bubble for it but in effect it is a segregation for 6 hours? No way do the kids live in that  bubble? .....the test cricketers do live in an exclusive bubble for the period of their selection? ...footballers do not not?   

 

in short I am happy to say that at after 9 months I do believe the concept of bubbles is confused

 

i would be happy for you to give me your definition of a bubble that is clear and not ambiguous and covers all uses of the the term of “ bubble” given your surprise that it is not understood  ....genuinely 

Do you genuinely not understand how bubbles operate in schools? That the England cricketers are an absolute exception to how bubbles are being used in all types of organisations throughout the country?

It surprises me that this far into the pandemic there are people who don't know what a bubble is. They must have been living in a

Scholes at it again?  He’s either monumentally thick, entitled or monumentally arrogant.  I’m going for a hat trick. 

Something has passed me by. What's he done? He hasn't been Zooming in Handforth has he?

He used to have a flat in the old Lydgate laundry.

No the post-traumatic infection bit. The fact this trauma came from a bite is very unusual.

So where does that leave Monty trumpeting that  what was written was right 

Monty was supposed to know that you were talking about a different player to everyone else? Good grief.

I see Lewis McKinney, who I thought was a good Latics youth prospect, but released, is at at Salford City.

It will be interesting to see what becomes of him.

He's been there a few weeks now so they must be reasonably interested in him. I'll get an update from a family friend tomorrow. Apparently he received excellent coaching as an under 11.

Rick Holden confirms (in another Facebook ramble) that he has applied for the physio job at Latics...

Now that could be interesting. Potentially the most entertaining physio since Ian Liversedge.
