Winchester On Saturday

[Martin]

I remember Gary saying that Barratt is unavailable and Terry is suspended.

[Amber Rebel]

i would like to see lawrence brown keep his place and tom attrell given a chance.

[Mr Rebel]

yeah barratt and davies are out

 

apparently betts is signing someone from Hillingdon in time for tomorrow. Billy something??

 

not sure why Attrell doesnt get more chances. surely he is worth bringing on with 15-20 minutes remaining to try and run at defences

[A Rebel and a Saint]

Apparently we have also signed a player from Hillingdon according to the Observer today I believe his name is Chris Hibbs, a 21 year old midfielder.

[Mr Rebel]

yeah just looked at the paper again it is Chris Hibbs. apparently he impressed Betts when Hibbs played against us in the 4-1 defeat to Hillingdon

[GarySTFC]

Chris Hibbs is being finalised today so should be ready for tomorrow, can't see any concerns.

 

We have also signed Chris Williams from AFC Llaneli who is a young forward. This would have gone through a while back, but we had to get international clearance from the Welsh FA. (Don't really want an 18 point deduction)

[Barry Scott]

That's awfully optimistic, we've only just scraped 20 odd points through the whole season!

[Mr Rebel]

good to get another forward. we can do without having to play midfielders up front. quite a strange side to sign Williams from. lets hope he is a big suprise success. boy do we need that right now

[Tom]

How did we manage to get a player on loan from a team top of the Welsh division?!

[GarySTFC]

Who said anything about loan? He's residing in Oxford, so may have moved away from the area and the commute was too much.

[Tom]

Ah, I just assumed it was a loan given the team and league. My bad.

[Amber Rebel]

it would be good to know what level the welsh premier is in relation to english football my guess it is ryman premier or conf south at the moement but it is getting better.

anyway a great signing.

[Chris]

It's not our first signing from Welsh Football. Both Steve Mautone & James Lambert signed for us from Welsh clubs.

[Chris]

Oh, and if he's residing if Oxford he could give Lee Rendell a lift!

[Reading Rebel]

Has anyone seen him play before we signed him or was he recommended or is it down to our scout venturing over the border?

 

 

Also what happened to the rumour that Lee Mason was coming back?

[Matt]

Brief preview now up with details of the coach running to the game.

[Guest Radder]

With those new guys in the squad it will be interesting to see what Bettsy does with the team. Presuming that Daly is back available he will surely go back into the centre of defence alongside Deano and Connor meaning no place back there for Laurence. With Robinson and Gray on the wings I would presume that Suarez would drop to the bench but then the midfield 3 will be between 4 of Meddie, Dave, the new guy Hibbs and Laurence who I don't think you can leave out. Then Williams and Jermaine up front. Don't know who I'd leave out to be honest.

[Amber Rebel]

yeah its a problem but a good problem to have for a change

[Amber Rebel]

any team news or score update yet

[Tom]

Team news I have is that Hibbs starts. Gumbs up top with Barratt.
