Timely press release, have to say the site is 100% better with recent changes at the club.

With the home games we've got coming, it looks like a lot of Sunday's and Wednesday's off.

Tuesday and Saturday nights in Mambo anyone ? :)

i always thought they got a day after the match off (sunday- even if they have 2 games a week)

Tuesday night at Mambo is not so popular. :(

The players get a Wednesday off

Cough....Its usually a wednesday...

Am I right in saying that players get at least one midweek day off ? If that day happens to be a Thursday then Wednesday night out seems ok.

And Wednesday night at Mambo sure is popular. (D)

About three years ago right after he first joined I saw Buckle himself out in Mambo's on a Wednesday night, slightly worse for wear - so maybe he'll understand!

I don't think Buckle has forgiven him for his sending off at Oxford so revelations of his nightly excursions won't endear him to the manager either.

He definitely didn't take part in the Carlisle warm up.

He walked past me and my old man in civvie attire. He was at the club, but not on the pitch, he bumped fists with the lads as they come off the pitch from their Prematch warm up

It would be a pretty significant break from the norm if Bucks criticised a player personally in public. He rarely even speaks badly of team performances.

He's either injured, or Halpin has merely sneaked ahead of him in the pecking order. From what i've seen of both of them, that isn't beyond the realms of possibility.

I don't remember seeing him in the warm up, well spotted!

He was taking part in the warm-up before the match against Carlisle, because I remember thinking I hadnt seen him for ages and maybe he was on the bench.....but of course he wasnt! He gets listed in the HE match squads every week (the very last name!), but he hasnt been seen since the 5-5 with Swindon Ressies, and yeah he did sign a new three year contract!

I have in my mind a vague recollection of something PB was quoted as having said indicating that he is far less then impressed with Mackers. I would guess, but not swear under oath, that it was on the back of the HE, but it wasn't the crux of the article.

Anyone else recall this, or was it a dream/slightly bemusing goldfish licking flashback?

Matt.
