Snowing in Leicester.

There's a reason why these youngsters are here on a development loan, it's to develop. (themselves & their careers) In the meantime if they can add something to the club, that's great, but we shouldn't expect too much of them.

Bizarre. Great to see nevill check on the bowler rather than be concerned about being run out.

Good to see we've brought in some cover at left back. Don't see any reason in pushing Lowden further forward, doing a grand job this season in defence. Has been much improved.

1009 runs in an innings, that's just ridiculous. See him in an India shirt in their next series if he's that good. Bowling must've been pretty shit.

Looking to see who Todd can get to put to paper.

Get in there gazza, cracking final.

Should be a great final. Mon Anderson.

Finally a 9 darter. Go Gary!

Surely not!!

Barney looking completely shattered, can't take advantage of Lewis poor finishing. Shame such a poor semi.

A bit like the west indies.

England in a great position after day 1. What's gone wrong with SA?

Lewis was good tonight, held up to the latter pressure that Wright started to put on him.

Great win again by barney. Hope he has enough energy for tough semi-final. Lewis/Wright should be classic.

Craig Watson extends loan spell until end of the season. Little & Whatley next I hope.

Outstanding news to hear bobby signing up to stay at Arbroath, shows how much he likes it here. So to all you doubters out there that thought he was jumping ship in January, stick that up your trumpet.

Merry Christmas to all Arbroath fans out there. Have a good one.

He's had 2 trialist games so if that's all he's allowed we may have to wait to sign him permanently ready for the angus derby. Hope Todd has plans to get Watson & Ramsay til end of season.

Hester seems like a natural goal scorer. His goals to minutes ratio in a maroon shirt (inc pre season) must be good.

ES there for the taking, can put us in a not bad position considering what's happened so far this season.

Right boys and girls, can we try to have no negativity for the rest of 2015. Take what positives we can from last 2 games & lets see if we are finally turning the corner.

Piss off, if that's the case then they're not much of a supporter!! There's a lot of frustrated fans out there who wish we were performing like we did this time last season.

1320 trust me I'm not in favour of us holding on to Todd but obviously the board are in no rush to oust him. But even they can't hold out til the end of the season if results carry on. Looking at next 4 games we must look to get 7-9 points (12 would be brill)

Fortunately we've not been cut adrift at the foot of the table (yet) but I personally think it's time to change this system of 1 up top. At this level 2 strikers is nearly always a better option. Give hester a run, with a target man (Grehan/Rutherford)next to him. Linn down the right, Reid/Ramsey on the left whipping crosses into the box. I'd give Todd til mid Jan to pick things up, unless we lose all games left in 2015.
