Moyes has final say re recruitment. He has a very patchy record buying strikers. Barry doesn't look to be an exception. And he's showing a marked reluctance to play Dibling.
All very odd.

One benefit of having a bit of a health episode is that it gets you looking at how you live. Diet, exercise, & relaxation are far more important to me than before.

The end of the working day brought a good walk on the prom, 7km on my bike & me cooking fresh hake, puy lentils, peppers & mushrooms.

There are 4.24m people with Indefinite Leave to Remain (or equivalent).

82% are in work, compared with 74% of Britons

3.8m are in relationships with Britons

They have about 2.4m British-born children.

This bullshit is never going to happen. Again.
