I don't get it. It was blatantly obvious for all to see we lacked Stephens today, again.

If you weren't there to watch it, then read the statistics. That is now our 3rd defeat, and all 3 have been without him. If that's not enough to convince you, our draw % is also significantly higher with him absent.

Spot on and one of the reasons we mustn't sell!

We won't sell, why is everyone so obsessed with him going because he has man flu? Other than it's January and everything, a sneeze, a cough, means players are walking out for the last time. It really is quite incredulous.

Not obsessed at all, just linking the 3 games out and 3 defeats post, he is instrumental to us making the big time, the club know that and that's why he wasn't sold and can't be allowed to go.

Well, if you won't, I will.......

Other factors as well, of course, but anyone who thinks Stephens' absence wasn't a major contribution is living in la-la land.

But conveniently ignoring Wednesday away which he missed and we won

Is it just a flu type virus or anything more serious or longer lasting?.

It's a rare strain that only works its way out your system on Feb 1st.

We will announce on Friday that he is being quarantined at Lancing until further notice.

Does Dale strike you as the kind of bloke that would shy away from a football match with a sniffle. Aren't you feeling any dejavu?

I have my doubts, hope I'm proved spectacularly wrong. We can do without another episode of this shit.

How do you know it's a 'snivel'? (Is that a sniffle)
