Mentality is a player problem - initially at least. But it EH has seen it and not corrected it, or not been able to correct it, it becomes a manager problem…that’s the real worry #nufc

#33 - lovely time at Trafford FC yesterday, hosted by Tony Whelan. What a privilege to spend 2 hours with him and Dave Bushell. 0-0 but that mattered little.

In Bath for the weekend. They're playing Gloucester. Not massive on rugby, but when in Rome etc. Found a ticket. Restricted view but whatever - it will be cheaper I thought. And I was right, it is - just £99 not £119. Wow. Perhaps not then...
