It's also a bit dodgy, they go back over 30 years and give Arsenal Keown but ignore Walters, Daley etc for us.

That's science for you...

The U23s lost 2-1 this afternoon at Bodymoor against Swansea.  Gabby played for around an hour before being replaced by Rushian.  Keinan Davies scored our goal.

Gabby looking a bit out of shape (shock) from the alleged picture of him on twitter.

He wouldn't need to play 90.  The fact that he's there and could come on might be enough of a psychological factor.  And, with the game 1 - 1 at 80 minutes and him warming up to come on....who knows?

Why do you call them "the stiffs"?

Generic term for any reserve side.

Always been a term of endearment.

And as far as I'm aware nobody has any idea where it came from or why.
