Anyone to whom it may have been applicable, ok, so I didn't delve into the squad profiles and twas a sweeping comment. Btw, I'd have thought that there's a percentage of players born into cold climates, yet still hate the snow, fog and frost!! So it was a chance to have a pop at some of the players but with no basis in any actual facts, featuring a subtle dig at those soft "foreign" types? **Pedant alert** If you wish to interpret it that way, that's your prerogative. ''Don't think some of the the new recruits will welcome Jack Frost either!''
Oh come on, surely you could find something anti-establishment, anti-semantic, racist or bigoted in my less than subtle dig at Jack Frost?

If we'd only signed players from the British Isles this summer would you have claimed that they wouldn't be happy when it gets cold? I don't think anything you wrote was in any way anti-establishment, anti-semantic, racist or bigoted, just critical of some of our foreign players based on some baseless notion that because they're foreign they won't like the cold.

Possibly, I wouldn't have seen anything bigoted in it though, unless they all came from the Scilly Isles.

Is Van Kessel going to get worse when it gets cold then? Is that possible?

As for Mehmeti, just based on his quotes he seemed positive about the training being more intense.

Spelling police here - it’s “err on the side of caution” Or, if you're Scouse - "errm on the side of caution".

Like (I don’t know how to write the Scouse pronunciation phonetically) Eh? The word “like” would typically be added to the end of that sentence were it said by a Scouser. However, that spelling of the word comes nowhere close to how it would be pronounced by said Scouser. I, however, am unable to find a way of writing that pronunciation in a phonetic way. ¿Claro? Also, I was liking his post. That’s a pun, of sorts. Or wordplay, maybe. ¿Claro?

Based on the Radox interview I reckon he's still a way off 45 mins let alone 90. He said he was pretty tired after the last couple of cameos but 'football is football'.
Sounds like he's keen to work hard to improve his fitness to fit the game etc.

Forget Blackpool he was on a hiding to nothing that game but i actually thought he looked alright yesterday. Put himself about and worked hard. Got his goal as well which you could see meant a lot. Was pleased for the guy.
