Good wishes on a speedy recovery Donovan C Pines.

I had looked forward to seeing him dwarf the Wembley pitch.

The communication on this always had the air of "summat's not reyt". Collins is poor at the mind games stuff, moving from "he is nearly ready to return" to being "out until next season" in a few days is quite a jump.

The comment that he wasn't ready for the pressure of two games a week as he has never done that before in the USA is one I have not heard before.
