I get to start one of these threads... and Clarets are mentioned on the front cover. I think that is twice now, ever, that we've been there. Soon be catching The Likes Of Lincoln.

WSC arrives and I rip open the plastic envelope and devour it. And then forget entirely about it for the next four weeks. Then someone posts on here that a new edition is out and my skull itches in anticipation and frustration for two or three days. Thanks folks!

@Sam: I enjoyed reading your piece, thanks (and well done to all those OFTers on here who’ve contributed to issue #375, have only had time to read a few articles).
The Tevez story (spotted when he was only 5) reminded me of a telling anecdote in the excellent Every boy’s dream (Chris Green, 2009) of a boy wearing a nappy underneath his shorts…
(page 54: There is a story of a prominent Premier League club coaching a boy who, when he bent down, was clearly wearing a nappy underneath this shorts. Not yet able to control his bowel movements but, hey, what does that matter if he can trap a football?)

Not too far off my experience too, Aitch- now i'm a subscriber again (wahey-£2 off a Strelka and Bielka t-shirt!) I usually read the short bits at the front, the season in brief at the back, the letters and then either carry it to and from work for 3 weeks, forgetting it's in my bag or leave it at one or other side of the bed, buried under Guardians and books

I've a lot of sympathy for imp's non-participation approach to the tournament but it'll be a wrench to turn my back on that shirt.

Ah, 08/09 in League Two as the season in brief.
I get made redundant from a job I absolutely adore, the boss laughs in my face when I ask him for help in keeping me on, an undiagnosed breakdown begins, Bury miss out on automatic promotion by one goal and then eff up the play-offs versus Shrews, all in the space of one month. Memories!

Fuck sake, that was the season Leicester went down from the second tier. If you'd won the playoffs I could have gone to Gigg Lane the following season. Inconsiderate.
Forgot to mention in my previous post that the WSC orders department always responds swiftly and effectively when I tell them my magazine has gone missing, hats off to Ffion and the gang.
