Jacobson, O'Nien and Gape at behind the Compton stand at Lord's at some Middlesex T20 game, just a day or two before O'Nien left for Sunderland.

Re: New Manager Rumour Mill
Yep there's definitely a sliding scale of wrongness!
Probably starting with Barton, them hitting Evans and that Plymouth fella Gaz couldn't stand, them Stevie Hollywood is a few rungs down from that.

Not sure I'd really want Stevie G, but having said that I'd prefer him over Ian Evatt !
Man of the Match season update 28/46
I have not done one of these in a while.
Sir Josh of Scowenshire is a great player. He has dominated this award for three years, and it will eventually be named after him. Despite the injury, he has still played 18/28 this season at mostly his usual form, winning 4 MOTM awards.
Cam Humphreys has been insanely good. He has been our creative fulcrum, scored and assisted well, and if anything is our "Freddie Potts" of this season (personally I think even better).
And yet...all of the above is thoroughly academic, because King Kone is absolutely destroying this race. Not only that, but he is just 45 votes away from Sir Josh's all time record of 425 for a season (with 18 games left!), and is well ahead of Josh's record Votes Per Start record of 12.5, with a whopping 18.09! He may also catch Josh's record 9 MOTM awards.
I expect Kone to at least go over 500 votes this season, possibly 600, and he is going to set records that may never be broken.
Finally, a shout out to Sonny Bradley, who in 4 starts already is 11th in total votes with 2 MOTM awards and a 24.25 VPS that is better even than Kone's, though would not qualify for record unless Bradley makes 20 starts.

Re: Random sightings of our players outside of football
Oh boy, I remember a few visits to the Attic in the mid 90's. Used to drink in the Roundabout back then and someone would come round with a load of flyers that got you cheap entry. I also recall shouting along to RATM in there. I should probably apologise for the same reason. Allowing for rose-tinted spectacles being powerful things, it was probably a bit crap, but since I would have been drunk on arrival I wasn't being fussy.

Yep, very clearly didn't work out at all here but sounds a great outcome for him

Re: Rumour Mill
I know I talk about Twitter a fair bit on here, and get the same response, but the state of some of the replies on the Exeter feed about Hartridge are just downright disrespectful. It’s not something that surprises me but man, there’s just no need. Be happy for the lad and keep scrolling. Proper trolls.
