Is the pitch still down and is the game on? Has ROB been asked for his expert opinion on turf?

Has Steve Clarke given the ok yet?

Its hard to say , his face permanently has the look of someone who has that second been told their house has burnt down !

Give Steve Clarke his due:

if his team loses tomorrow he can tell his directors 'I told you the pitch would be unplayable'!

No lose situation for him.

In fairness to him and his sh*t football team, I would have been looking for some positive assurances that the pitch is playable and of no risk to his sh*t players

Feels personally responsible as CEO.

That's a brilliant remark and 'Hat's Off To Marky D' (apologies to Del Shannon) for that one.

'I feel personally responsible' for the uninitiated = 'I'm not responsible at all really but it sounds good and morally correct and I share your pain and furthermore'..........

I wish I had a million quid for every time someone has said to me regarding a cock-up:

'I feel personally responsible'

to which my reply was always:

'You are personally responsible and so am I as your boss so stop feeling it and start knowing it and this is what I'm gonna do.....'
