Alex Williams reply to Davey Carlisle:Why don’t you just watch it online tomorrow?
Davey Carlisle reply to Alex Williams:Because then I can’t tweet my reactions!
I roll my eyes. Bloody hell, these idiots and their fuckingBake Offobsession.
Tom Whitford:Fucking hell. Enough about bloody Bake Off!
Robbie Sexton reply to Tom Whitford:You really do love sucking the joy out of everything don’t you?
Sean Fisher:That’s not the only thing he loves sucking??
Next to me, Archie lets out a snort of laughter and I hit him with an unimpressed look. “It wasn’t that funny.”
He shrugs, grinning unapologetically. “It was pretty funny,”
Tom Whitford reply to Sean Fisher:*middle finger emoji*
Sean Fisher:What’s with the hostility bro? I was talking about Maltesers

Davey Carlisle reply to Koen Vizser:I told you to keep that under wraps boyo
Koen Vizser:I thought this was a safe space?

“Okay, this is getting ridiculous,” I declare, getting up from the sofa and shoving my phone in my pocket, ignoring the persistent vibrations of more messages coming in from my idiotic teammates. “We should probably get going soon if we’re going to get there by half seven.”
“But I was so comfy,” Archie says with a pout.
I offer a wry smile. “What happened to my Energizer bunny?”
“He’s a bit sexed out at the mo, truth be told.”
“Ahh, I see…now you’re twenty and old you don’t have the stamina you used to?”
Archie rolls his eyes and holds his hands out to me. “Okay, fine, help me up. But I can’t promise I’ll be able to walk properly after this afternoon.”
By the time we reach The Rock, Archie’s got a second wind and is buzzing with energy again. No surprises there… We pull into the carpark, and I spot Vinnie out on the pitch as planned, corralling the players who’ve already arrived.
“You go out and meet Vinnie,” I tell Archie. “I’m just going to take a piss.”
“Don’t we need to change?”
“Doesn’t look like it.” I nod to the group of players gathering on the pitch, all still in street clothes.
I leave a baffled Archie to head over to the pitch while I duck into the training facility and meet up with Robbie and Alex in Vinnie’s office.
