28th of November, 1970. I woke up from an appendix operation with my concerned parents standing over my hospital bed. Still fighting the general anaesthetic, with my head groggy and my eyes feeling like huge pebbles were pressing them upon down, I looked for some sort of loving reassurance.

So ex Real Madrid defender Francisco Pavon isn’t joining us after all. The Mail reports that it is because we weren’t prepared to offer him a long enough contract but, as with Hell Hadji, Doctor Evil is putting it down to fitness issues. Interesting.

Not perhaps a name to ring a bell with a many these days. West Ham United followers of my vintage, however, will recall what a steadfast guardian of the Hammers’ goal Ernie was and how he went on serving the club in various capacities until he was past 70. But this isn’t just …

What a wonderful idea! Zamora has fallen out with Martin Jol apparently, so he is being linked with a return to the club he supports. And wouldn’t we fans welcome him back with open arms?

Looking pretty good to me. Zamora’s lack of quality in the box showed when he had a chance – he tried to take the extra touch and the chance was gone – but Zammo has linked the play excellently. Turds defenders should note that Curbishley showed Bobby the door, even though Zamora is …

It seems Doctor Evil is working his way through his wish list, meeting with rejection and frustration every time he suggests a possible centre back to bring in on loan.
