Alfie “No resale value” May with an assist for the first, then a winner at Orient today. In the week he was crowned L1 player of the year.

Heartwarming stuff. Heartwarming.

£750k a snip if it secures Birmingham promotion which is worth ten times that amount.

Alfie 'Mocking Board' May could make it 3 on the bounce golden boots.

He just keeps giving.

We always knew he was destine for bigger things

Alfie May didn't win the golden boot in 22/23. He came 5th.

Not a former player but he's been spoken about on here enough over the years: Matt Smith has decided to retire.

He wasn't bad - but nowhere near as good as David Tenant.

Michael Hector, unfathomably, in the PFA “free agents” team playing at Cambridge this afternoon. He is only 32. Not sure how he is without a club.

In the youth set up so counts I’d say.

Both were in youth football - one at CTFC, the other at Notts County, Forest and Leicester before injury led to him becoming an actor🤔

Yes that is a surprise as he would be a very solid L1 or top of L2 defender. Wage demands or injury record putting off clubs perhaps?

Missed this at the end of the window but Dan Nlundulu joined Cambridge on a season long loan from Bolton.
Wonder if he’ll ever settle anywhere?

No, is my bet.

Not a player, but a former manager...Darrell Clarke had a good one tonight, battered 7-0 by some Premier League no hopers.

Thanks Shev. I read a great piece about TNS preparing for playing Fiorentina in the Guardian today and it had quite a few quotes from Conor Roberts the goalkeeper. I wasn’t sure if it was the same one so good to have it confirmed.

That's good to know. I read the match report and it said keeper Connor Roberts had made a very good save or two, but didn't realise it was the same player either.

Obviously I'm no orthopaedic surgeon, but Southwood was back playing in August less than 4 months after breaking his leg at Stevenage. Presumably he was rehabilitated and training long before that. I appreciate there are breaks and there are breaks but that seems a lightning fast recovery.

Just looking it up, apparently minor fractures heal in 6-8 weeks. He broke his leg on 27th April, so could feasibly have been healed by 24th June.

bit about him here, but would argue about him being classed as inexperienced
