Not for the faint of heart … I have just found this squad picture from just over a year ago (2 July 2015). Gave me quite a turn I can tell you.

Interesting though to see how enormous Nigel's "group of players" was – and this was before his signings had arrived. How times change.

The best bit about the photo is how many we have shifted on!
 
8 days before Jose's first prohibited substance FA hearing - wonder what happened at this years - result was meant to be couple of months ago - perhaps if you go for treatment they decide later. Anyway hope he gets himself on top of his problems, still young enough to turn it around somewhere if he does.

No geese flying overhead though.....

Perhaps it was a sign?
No, but as I'm looking on my phone, I was counting heads and included a cone in the head countat first. Nigel must've noticed him and thought "lets sign Hammond".

Bloody hell, it's like the end of one of those films when they tell you what happened next to the characters!
