If one really wanted to find out what Berbatov (etc.) thinks, about what is going on in his head, a good place to start would be his home town paper in Bulgaria, “The Struma”, or local TV or radio stations.

For instance, it was ONLY through a report of an interview Bojinov gave to Darik radio, that was (congratulations!) picked by ESPN in the States, that I found out who was doing the surgery on Bojinov, and even then I had to find out the NAME by searching for information about Francesco Totti’s injury! Well, I did it…here is what I put on my blog [hyperlinks on blog].

Okay, Bob-a-job is out for five months. If there are any Catholics in good-standing out there…you know what to do, right?

Right, so does this in any way answer the questions I posed below, or is five months neither long nor short enough to make a confident decision? Damn it! I had “adopted” Bob-a-job along with Breadvan (you know what I mean by “adopted”).

BTW: if you are interested in the surgeon that Bob-a-job mentions operated on Fransceso Totti, his name is (Dr.) Paolo Mariani, Professor at the University of Rome. If you would like to read something about the Doctor who has Bojinov’s career in his hands (and the Dr. did WONDERS with Totti) here is a brief bio. He is also the man called in to fix Palermo striker Amauri after his terrible injury to the cruciate ligaments in his right knee on the 23rd of December, 2006, whilst playing against Ascoli.

Pass it on.

How hard is it for the media to do a half-decent job? Even ESPN who picked up the radio story failed to find out who the doctor was (though they had enough information to dig and find out). I know you aren’t City fans, but why has no-one commenting about Bojinov and a replacement bothered to find out who is going to treat him? Media not interested…or just too lazy? Less stories, more meat please is what I think whatever the club.

even berbatovs agent has said everything is ok between him and jol, but at the end of the day people want to unsettle us by making stupid alegations.

Anyway this jol situation has to be sorted, i like jol and i think he will do well, however i think the board have to sort this out once and for all, either replace him now that its early in the season and bring in the new faces that are mentioned i.e riquelme, coentrao or taylor, this will enable us to gel and do well, or they have to come out publicly and shut the critics and let jol stay and he can continue with the squad as normal and the rumoured new players mentioned, otherwise i beleive that if they are giving jol time or a certain amount of games to see what happens with results then that will have jol under more pressure than under normal circumstances and that may destroy our season because jol will be under unecesary pressure which may affect results and that may unsetle the players and end up far behind in the league,and then if they do decide to axe him by the time a new manager comes in and gets to know the players etc, it may be too late
