You could loan the club money which makes a loss and then charge the club to use your data company. You could then offset some of the tax made by Radar through the loses at Notts. I think the only really works if Radar was registered in a low tax jurisdiction, but I seem to recall that Pavis used to make money out of Notts whilst they were losing money year on year. If I recall correctly he used to charge the catering company a peppercorn rent for the facilities, who then charged their services back to the club at top rates. I believe his wife owned the catering company. You couldn't blame them if they were.

I wonder how much we contributed to that.

4. 'nuff said. Wordle 870 4/6 ???????????? ???????????? ???????????????? ????????????????????

That's a blow, but good news the club are already looking at options. Interesting that free agents are being looked at.

I'll be making my daughter her 18th birthday cake, and then leaving her and her friends to party tomorrow night. Sunday will be some repairs on my partners washing machine. Hopefully I'll get a run or two in too. A steady weekend.

Today's score is... Wordle 867 4/6 ???? ???????????? ???????????? ???????????????????? 4!! (Thanks to my daughter who came in and solved the conundrum in a few seconds!!)

Surely if he's not in the squad for the weekend it just means he isn't in the team for an FA Cup game that we may or may not be taking seriously. I think the Crewe game will be more telling, but even then it only means that the injury isn't totally trivial. Bostock has been out for 4 or 5 weeks, there is nothing to suggest Palmer would not be similar. The fact is, until someone says what the injury is and how bad it is, we won't know. I think the only one we have been given any idea on is Bajrami, even Scott is out for the rather vague 'foreseeable future'.

Any ideas what the problem is/was?

Apparently for the Crewe game. The Pizza Cup could be an issue as we have to play so many 1st team players.

I was there that day... in the home end! The stands emptied after we scored (both times if I recall). The first time nobody noticed that me, dad and mum hadn't moved, the second time we were well and truly spotted. Luckily dad always looked about 70 so after a few insults they left us alone. I have never felt so scared...even when I lost it in the home end at Birmingham City in 1989 / 90 when we scored a last minute winner wasn't as bad. To be fair they saw the funny side of it,,, something the Chelsea fans could never have been accused of.

Ahh.. that doesn't look great does it?

I hope not, are there options for emergency transfers / loans given that we may start to run out of players? Also, the above twit only says he injured, is the 'rest of the season' part somewhere else?

Balancing out yesterday's astounding 3.. it's 5 today. I didn't help myself with my 4th guess though! Wordle 866 5/6 ???? ???????? ???????????? ???????????????? ????????????????????

Unusually good today!! Wordle 865 3/6 ???????? ???????????????? ????????????????????

I can't see why they wouldn't be looking to buy / invest. I think they have access to much bigger funds than they let on, and I think their management style lends itself to owning a stable of teams. That may help all the clubs as they can loan / sell players between themselves.

My partner found them terribly distracting, and once the light began to fade (only slightly) the reds and yellows really became dominating and possibly had more of an illuminating effect than the floodlights. I am sure floodlights aren't meant to be distracting, so these advertising boards shouldn't either. I really don't like them at all.

Surprise!! 4 again. Wordle 864 4/6 ???????? ???????? ???????????? ????????????????????

They had more trouble at the weekend with a fan removed and arrested for racial abuse of a Newport player. Also, they have recently been handed down a fine for a couple of incidents last year. They could be looking at points deductions at this rate.

I think we need to mix things up a bit. I don't have a problem with the short corners, but not all the time. We don't have the height to launch it into the centre, but there are other options other than the short pass. At the end they stuck 3 / 4 men about 7 yards from the corner and immediately pressured the receiver, and the next man forcing us back to Slocombe. Occasionally putting one long or to the edge of the box would give them something else to think about and mean they couldn't commit so many men to the short corner. Mind you, their corners were just as successful as ours resulting in 0 goals, but we often came away with the ball, so at least we retained possession, but .... When we attacked we did so exclusively down the wings. Wrexham doubled up on Nemane and sometimes had 3 on Jones, which restricted their effectiveness. I think it was a reflection of how good Jones is that he still caused so many issues. The trouble was that when things came to a halt on one wing the ball was recycled back through the midfield, defence and on to the other wing. Wrexham simply drifted their defence from one wing to the other. There was soooo much space in the centre but we never exploited it, we simply continued our pattern of switching wing to wing. This meant Wrexham moved their central defence out to support the full backs and double up on our wingers without fear of being exposed in the centre. Sometimes they were moving in anticipation of the move stalling on one wing, and leaving huge gaps. They sort of formed a dome around their penalty box and allowed us to pass around the top of it, knowing we were never going to make a move through the centre. I think we missed Ruben for once, who would see the gap and have the confidence to exploit it. Crowley and McGoldrick didn't do that as they were tracking over to help the wingers... because they were under pressure and needed 'an out' because Wrexham didn't need to commit to the centre. Against Gillingham, Macari exploited the gap when it appeared, but nobody seemed to want to take the risk this time. My last point was that Wrexham were more prepared to take a shot and take a chance that something would come of it. We seemed to want to score the perfect goal, Their approach led to the deflection and indirectly the second goal (I maintain if thy hadn't scored the first they wouldn't have got the second). Sometimes, it's worth losing possession to give the opposition something else to think about, or roll the dice to see if something different happens. All that said, it was a good game between 2 closely matched teams. we will both be there or thereabouts at the end of the season. I thought our defence was largely sound and Solcombe was excellent. We were let down by those up front, but nothing to get despondent about. We are still learning and we will improve. If we can learn the lesson and be a little less predictable as a result of this experience then I can see us being right up there.

I'm back from a week off... and straight back with the 4s! Wordle 863 4/6 ???? ???????? ???????????????? ????????????????????
