Be intersting to know actually know how much commuting he is doing?

Does he have a really nice house up here that he spends time in, a decent place his Mrs would want to come up and spend time in too?
(eg a big house in rural warwickshire). Does she stay put in sandbanks?, is he sometimes in a temporary flat? and\or driving all the time? etc etc

Like you say at 70 it makes a difference.

Yes, I'd be interested to know as well. In a couple of his recent interviews he said some things that were a little ambiguous but made me think that he is commuting regularly from Sandbanks. I'm in Torquay myself but come back to see family in Solihull so I know what it's like to do a 2 & 3/4 hour (when it's clear) trek up the M5 and the same again to get back in a day, but I think that trip is shorter than from Bournemouth to the Blues ground and I'm not 70 years old. I presume that he must be staying in the Midlands - particularly when there's an evening match.

Fabbrini, Frei and to a lesser extent Stewart and Shinnie could all have done a job for us before deadline day.

Not to mention Ravel, he could easily have stepped that up a gear.

Yes, those sales are not looking too clever right now, particularly as we practically gave Frei away and apparently contribute to his wages. To make it worse, he looked good in Austria (I saw it via the online stream) and seemed to have finally settled in (and scored) - just before he left! Fabbrini also looked lively and useful over there :X
