Sullivan: "David, I have been hearing complaints there is no toilet roll in the training room stalls."
Moyes: "Sorry boss, I was working late watching player vid...."
Sullivan: "I don't want to hear excuses. Just make sure this doesn't happen again."

Ntcham wouldn’t be adverse to leaving Scotland - he got a load of stick a year or two ago for criticising the standard and being tempted by interest by interest from France.

Apparently Moyes has had to nip out to buy some gaffa tape so he could lash his laptop onto the top of club mower...

Is Soucek going to be able to make the step up? He currently plays in the Czech league.

Is this the kinda player that is going to improve our position in the league? Is he better than what we currently have?

He's just a kid from West Brom. He might turn out ok in future, but certainly not someone we could rely on now had we gone in for him. Musch prefer the names we are being linked with.

It's a position we urgently needed to address so I'll take that for the moment. I never look at where a player has come from to be honest, it's about what they do for us.

He's an international, played well in the Champions League and is captain of the Czech champions. Its not like he is some guy they pulled out of a hat.

according to your mate it's not exactly been far off.

he sounds like a very decent player, but then you'd have to question the football sense of someone willing to chuck themselves on this binfire of a club.

That's why we had Stuart Pearce in last time, because he's a qualified electrician as well.

Currently the board are looking for a joiner who has scouting experience, a groundsman/goalkeeper coach and a plasterer with some experience of sports psychology.

Rumours that Jack Wilshere got his hernia whilst studying a City & Guilds Bathroom fitting course are yet to be confirmed.

Flat back 11 across the goal line might help to limit the damage.
