If I had the money I'd buy one and to hell with life expectancy!

Here's the latest instalment of Connor Kirby Watch .... 11th January Macclesfield 1-1 Oldham (att: 2,205) Well our boy kept his place in Macc's starting XI and picked up another yellow card in the first half He was subbed off after 80mins and Oldham went ahead five minutes later But in a dramatic finale Wheater saw red for the visitors, handling a goal bound effort on the line And Macc rescued another valuable point by scoring the resulting penalty in injury time

A certain inevitability about that

Bit frantic at times But aside from conceding two soft goals, it's not been a bad watch

YESSS

These 'commentators', eh? I just wanna bang their heads together Can't, so did the next best thing ... Killed the sound after about 20mins and put some music on

I'm surprised I thought they'd simply issue another out of sheer mardiness

"What's your job, Digger?" "What's your game, Sport?" "What's your colour, Blue?" "Honey, I've shrunk the koala"

I haven't spotted any official confirmation or anything ... But I'm guessing that Jack Stobbs' appearance as a 71st minute sub for our U23s yesterday means his loan spell at Livingston is now over So, a quick summary then: After a blistering start to his time up there - making his debut as a sub (Ross Co. away) and scoring a 'worldie' - things hardly got going for him He made two further appearances from the bench and his only start (his last time out) was Hamilton (a) at the end of September He'd also been an unused sub on four occasions during those early weeks before dropping off the radar A return to the bench for two more games late-October/early-November wasn't the comeback he might've hoped for There's no use speculating as to what went wrong, FlashScore listed him as being unavailable through injury so maybe that was the problem ... or plastic pitches, who knows? Either way, the loan may have provided good experience for Jack but it can hardly be considered successful Total 4 appearances (all in the SPL) P 1 +3 W +2 D 0 L 1 +1 scored: 1

Too true But then again, I'm forced to admire our generosity in helping to end their miserable run of 2 draws and 5 defeats Poor sods - it's the least we could do, really

FT 1-2 Not good

These lads are clearly following a time-honoured Wednesday tradition losing 1-2

1-1 now - dammit
