Now TWENTY SIX years since Rog and Dave missed a game!! Well it was 10 days ago actually. Atherstone away 10th November 1992. Amazing.

How are these guys gonna get on today seeing as though there’s two games going on at the same time?

Do half a game each? Or will be record be over?

This is certainly no criticism of the club, and I actually like the idea of having a split squad play two games, as it gives the youth players a chance to impress.

But if I was on a run, like Rog and Dave, I'd be frustrated that I had to miss one of the games.

Should stagger the kick off times - say one at 12pm and the other at 3pm to give fans the opportunity to watch both games if they wish.

We've never counted friendlies. They are too hard to justify sometimes. Kickabouts against the reserves etc. They watch the cricket in the summer anyway. It's just league and all official cup games home and away.

I stand to be corrected but I'm sure I read that the other game is an Under 21 friendly ???

The squad seems pretty much split between the 2 games at Cradley and BCR. A few new extras in there as well from what I can tell.

And now 27 years without missing home or away. Absolutely amazing.
