We lost Josh Ruffels to the sickness bug this morning.
Aye, big blow that, Neil.

Over the past couple of weeks I've had the option of spending my brass on 3 away trips or wine and beer. Thankfully I didn't waste it on the away trips and I've enough beverage stocks at home to last me a wee while yet and also dull the pain of Town's performances on the road.

I must say Warnock's selections surprised me. I was hoping you might hang on in there and lose by just one or two. Now it's a bigger job to build some belief in the team after it has been demonstrated how much they are inferior to the best in the division. But there are teams you can beat and the experience younger players gain by simply playing is invaluable. There is nothing to beat proper competitive games to develop players and many of your team have many seasons ahead of them in their careers. Look at Amad Diallo at Sunderland who was looking like a bit of a waste of a kit at Man Utd. Tony Mowbray just puts him on the pitch in proper games and he shines. Man Utd could find they have more wingers than touchlines for them to hug.
Of course you might also turn out like me, a lifelong socialist. I marched on from defeat to defeat with our eventual victory the light at the end of my dark tunnel. I'm 70 now and that rumbling sound might just be the on-coming sudden-death express rattling down the skeletal line. Did I sleep through the eventual victory? What happened to that red flag I was flying?

"Rested" I believe. Colin wasn't going gung-ho for a result in this game right from the off.

I know Burnley are by far the best team in the division and probably the best for quite some time but the way we conceded the goals was still disappointing.

For some reason when I try to preview my Coventry thread I get a

Thread won't post either, I'll try another browser.
Firefox not working either - must be something at their end.
Managed to post a one line test thread. Strange, very strange.
Solved it - apparently it didn't like me putting a web page link inside brackets.

Just got home and seen this. Sorry for being no help at all but glad you sorted it. Well done.

Solved by a process of delamination Snoots, as Sherlock wouldn't have said.
