Room 303

Wolves were certainly - to use one of those marvellous pre-season phrases - "put through their paces" on their first training session of their Irish tour at the
nearby Athletic Union League complex in Clonsmaugh.
Meanwhile messrs John Hendley and I, having missed the chance to tail the coach following the late submission of copy, once again made a devil's job of
actually finding the place through the region's country lanes.
There seems to be a theme developing here.
Still, we got there just a few minutes into the players' warm-ups at the small facility to join the smattering of Wolves fans who had travelled to get a close
eye of their heroes.
Included among their number were the indefatigable Swedish Wolves, regular attenders at both pre-season and regular season games for plenty of years.
They were there to present their Player of the Year award to Matt Murray, who looks like making his comeback from injury in tonight's friendly at Bray.
Meanwhile the training session was conducted among the constant sights and sounds of aeroplanes making their low descent into Dublin Airport.
Apparently, as someone pointed out to me, that particular airport is the biggest in the world.
Every year, it just keeps Dublin and Dublin and Dublin....
Meanwhile, the complimentary copy of the Irish Independent, left outside our rooms each morning, still lies, completely pristine and untouched, outside Room 303 down the corridor.
Do you think we should investigate?
