I'm swaying towards Unc's selection with Danny Kerrigan at left-back, although Keith has been playing well too.

 

I think you're both right about Vinnie.

I reckon we will need a tall guy at the back to deal with Purfrock's long high balls up front, so Vinnie's head will come in handy.

The downside is has Vinnie the speed to keep up with Akurang?

Scott Gooding has played well at centre-half on occasions, even tho' that isn't his natural position.

Perhaps Danny Kerrigan's inclusion may compensate for the "speed issue".

 

Does anyone have any info on Heybridge, like what style they play, pace of players etc..as I haven't seen 'em play at all this season.

[mala_D]

The other thing about our encounter with Purfrock is that Akurang goes down at the slightest touch, so whoever playes in the centre-half position had better be accurate with his tackles...otherwise I see a few free kicks [or, worse, pens] being given around the area.

WHOOOOOOOOOOOO..........Did they really play for us this season... <img src="/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />

[Bridge]

I must admit Kerrigan has been top draw this season, but I just went for a touch of experience...toss of a coin swayed it!!!!

 

[mala_D]

Good job you're not in management then Bridge <img src="/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

Mind you, I can think of a few managers who might have selected their team on that basis <img src="/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

[Urchino]

I would take a couple of that XI back, not to mention names but "a type of silver" and "he sounds like he is a tenor" !!

 

As for the starting XI i go with unc's but i think i would stick Danny in rather than Keith at left back, only just mind !!

[Urchin Boy]

Vinnie John At Center Back <img src="/images/graemlins/mad.gif" alt="" /> He's A Feckin Forward ! Maybe If He Was Upfront On Monday We Would Have Scored !

 

 

[Lord]

Got to agree with you UB, why people want the only forward at the club who actually gets and creates chances up front, playing at the back is beyond me?? Who we going with up front then, Abbott and Douglas?? <img src="/images/graemlins/confused.gif" alt="" /> That will bring hatfulls of goal!! <img src="/images/graemlins/blush.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

[Bridge]

Just a matter of opinion Lordy Lord....I just think thats vinnies best postion...He just doesn't do it for me up front mate...As for who's going to score the goals fck knows...vinnie isn't for sure on recent form!!!!

[Urchino]

I actually think Lee is injured, we need somebody at centre back either moving Jamie or Vinnie. We need Jamie's strength in the middle of the field and Vinnie is a top quality replacement at centre back. A reserve CB must be on the shopping list <img src="/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />!

 

Can't disagree about Abbott but i still think having Dougie and Bertie is a upfront is a pretty good front two.

 

Just seen one of Unc's subs, agree totally John Bradley must be knocking on the door of the first team squad !!

[Urchin Boy]

I Think Young Tony Maynard Should Start Upfront On Saturday !

[Urchino]

I agree we should give the guy a chance !

[Uncle Urchin]

young tony maynard will get his chance...as will johnny bradley....

 

vinnies a natural centre back and I think that he will finish his career in that position...have we ever lost when vinnies been at the back...??

 

as for goals...well...they haven't been in plentiful abundance this season have they and I think that letting opara get out of control and go was a serious error on GB part...having said that...I also think that Bertie will run riot once he finds his feet.....

 

he does look the business to me....very quick...strong and can run with the ball...once that left foot finds the target he'll score bucket loads.... his partner.....well....andy is always trying hard but hasn't really found the form he used to have since joining us....

 

with a new manager imminent it'll be interesting to see what happens.....

 

holdsworth perhaps......I know we made a bid for protheroe from canvey but he's gone to gravesend I believe.....

 

we'll see..... <img src="/images/graemlins/cool.gif" alt="" />

One things for sure it will be a very interesting pre-season. Many developments, i'm guessing players coming and a few going.

 

On the subject of the 'Young-uns', i hope they do get their chances soon. I would hate to think that 'we' would lose them to another club <img src="/images/graemlins/frown.gif" alt="" />.

 

As for Proths. He has joined them, already for next season <img src="/images/graemlins/frown.gif" alt="" />.

[Lord]

OK, I'll sacrifice Vinny playing centre half, but only on condition that Maynard gets a start up front with Bertie. He would become about the 17th forward we have tried this season!! Must give the lad a chance before the end of the season, poor sod must be getting fed up of standing on the terrace with us riff-raff!!!
