Title: Craigs LAPTOP had died!!
Post by: ALICE on November 03, 2009, 08:24:16 PM: Craig has asked me to inform everyone that his laptop has been smashed by the ball during the Quorn Game. Therefore there will be no further live updates.

He is not very happy - Bless him

Post by: ALICE on November 03, 2009, 08:28:39 PM: No - Do you think I would really be joking about this. Cullingworth cleared the ball and hit the back of his laptop while he was sat in the stand and the screen has been smashed.

Post by: Ken Fox on November 03, 2009, 08:32:03 PM: He should have a netbook like mine. Small, portable, six hour battery life and a solid state hard drive so it can take a few knocks!

Post by: qwerty on November 03, 2009, 08:32:35 PM: Get him to text one of us some updates and we will put it on here, goals etc. Thought David might have treated him to a Iphone or Blackberry before now.

LOL, what are the odds of that?

Post by: Lord Cutler Knobhead on November 03, 2009, 08:54:56 PM: Is it not the clubs Laptop anyway as part of his job?

Duncan Brownes Facebook comment suggests it was a Cully clearance that was the culprit

Title: Re: Craigs LAPTOP had died!!
Post by: Ken Fox on November 03, 2009, 09:57:59 PM: Hope that's not the computer Craig uses to prepare the match programmes as he'll be hard pressed to meet tomorrow's deadline if he has to start from scratch on a new one!
Title: Re: Craigs LAPTOP had died!!
Post by: father Ted on November 03, 2009, 10:02:30 PM: Could be serious ... the Board could veto him from using Club equipment to do the Live thingy from now .. :'(

Title: Re: Craigs LAPTOP had died!!
Post by: Ken Fox on November 03, 2009, 11:29:41 PM: At least that's one less home match programme needed to be produced following tonight's defeat. ;D
Title: Re: Craigs LAPTOP had died!!
Post by: Seenbetter on November 03, 2009, 11:47:04 PM: So, after receiving the gate receipts the players need paying, travel expenses need to be met and Craig should be getting a new laptop out of it, was it worth turning up at all cos there wont be much left.
Title: Re: Craigs LAPTOP had died!!
Post by: Pilgrim21 on November 04, 2009, 06:57:24 PM: I bet that Craig was holding the camera tight when he did the video interview with Cully.

Post by: Seenbetter on November 05, 2009, 08:32:51 AM: Clearly an act of deliberate wanton violence. The punishment for such a violent peice of accurate ball kicking ?, a post match, we lost the game, video interview.

Post by: father Ted on November 05, 2009, 03:47:35 PM: I say he (J C) can move on .. Don' t rate the player .
Title: Re: Craigs LAPTOP had died!!
Post by: palada on November 05, 2009, 10:04:07 PM: Spoke to Craig at the Firework night and you will all be pleased to know PC is fully repaired and functional with new screen :)
Title: Re: Craigs LAPTOP had died!!
Post by: Seenbetter on November 06, 2009, 08:20:41 AM: A cause for celebration and a toast to Craigs laptop, perhaps in the bar tomorrow.
