I WONDER whether Steve McMahon has any plans to parade the LDV Vans Trophy around the County Ground before Saturday's game?

I hope not as I do not imagine it would go down too well.

But three points for Andy King's men would go a long way to banishing the memories of a miserable afternoon at Bloomfield Road.

A chilly afternoon, a sloppy early goal conceded and a last-minute penalty.

Sorry Danny but I knew you were going to miss! Call it a gut feeling.

Anyway, our Aussie star must have done something right that afternoon because it led to McMahon slapping in an offer (albeit a derisory one) for the Brisbane man.

Today of course is transfer deadline day and there is always the worry that some of our players could be shown the door if the right offer comes in.

The club's plight means that all 'reasonable' offers will be considered.

But whatever the line-up on Saturday, three points could finally see us safe.

A Town win and a Bury defeat will be enough to secure another year of trips to Port Vale, Colchester and Wigan.

As for today. I know a lot of stay-away fans who have had this particular match in their diary as the one match to attend this season?

I can't imagine why. I presume they want to say hello to an old friend.
