At 5pm on Saturday I was on a footballing high, our 2nd win of the season had finally happened and we could happily drift along until Tuesday week and Donny. No new players announced? so what? we weren't expecting anything yet, if at all. Then, once we'd got our second wind after Accrington the Humphrys rumour got it's boots on and ShrimperZone embraced it with a vengance. Was he ill? nah, he was off, but he may have been ill and we were ignoring mental stress in footballers.....nah, he's off and he can't head a ball anyway, and so it went on. Never mind, it will settle down I thought.....no ****ing chance. Come Monday everything went from bad news to worse. The Donny rumour was confirmed in the Echo and then Hopper was being sold to Lincoln. That last one really hurt, although in the cold light of day I get why we did it and probably Ron had no choice. Then to cap it all the EFL charge the Club with misconduct. So ended Monday on a misery count probably as high as I had been on Saturday at 5pm.
God knows what the rest of the week will bring, we can but wait and see. All we can do is watch and wonder and hope that things will settle down again. One thing is for certain, all of us Zoners need to support each other during these tough times because we are all we've got. Disagree with someone? no problem, that's what the Zone is for but try and do it in a constructive way.
