We usually play well in the heat

Makes you wonder how Europen Cup C/L footballers manage eh?

Is Robert Hicks part of our club now, he never leaves us, glad we’ve also got him signed

Maybe this is why the plane was three minutes late, Bobby talking the pilot through his manoeuvres

If we attack on the edges with the pace and power of recent weeks and keep our discipline I can only see one result. But it's a derby and anything can and probably will happen.

I didnt actually say that I was just making the point that some were making out about the travel when in reality there’s more travel going to London and I’ve worked in France and I used to get to Limoges via Amsterdam faster than the 2.5 hrs you say

There's a lot more waiting around at airports (unless it's a private chartered airline I guess).

It was chartered from what I've read?

It was as private charter but the HKR guy was making out it was only an hour flight when in reality it was 2.5 hrs.
he is now saying there is more travel involved when going to London,maybe on some days in the traffic but you have to factor in that the outward flight was 08.00 meaning some players would be up at 05.00.
The return flight arrived back at Humberside at Midnight on Saturday so apart from playing a match in 26 degree heat and high humidity by the time most would arrive home would be 02.00 Sunday morning so in reality Mr HKR the team have been on the go nearly 24 hours and played a match in between.

I never said it was an hour flight I said France is an hour away in general terms put it this way I don’t think any of the players will be suffering jet lag there’s football players playing Europa league on a Thursday night in far flung Russia then coming back and playing on the Saturday/ Sunday
