Training tonight

[Rob_the_Saint]

33 (yes, I counted) players were put through their paces at Oaklands College tonight. Quite a few new faces I didn't recognize but of the first team squad, I saw Castle, De Souza, Wraight, Zoricich, Campbell, Sargent, though there may well have been more.

 

A few of last season's Reserves were also there, namely Ben Cogger, Will Davies, Ricky Perks.

 

Capleton and Robinson were in goal (not the same one!) in one of the mini-games going on.

 

That's all, rumours of a significant signing next Monday.

Also there were Chris Seeby, Adam Parker, Matt Hann, Craig Rydeheard, Darren Sarll, Rob Smith, Richard Thomas, Graham Butler, Neil Gough and from the reserves, Amadue Riley.

Rob Smith? What, playing?

 

Robinson and Capleton in goal, Perks not involved?

Ricky Perks came off the bench and scored an extra-time hat-trick for some pub team in a Sunday League cup final at the end of last season, GHA.

 

With the plethora of goalkeeping talent at t'Park, perhaps we're having a look at him to join with Neily Gough to form The Mighty Saints 50 goal strike force for next term.

AFF and son: Aren't you going to ask me about the rumoured significant NEW signing next Monday?

[AFF]

No.

 

I can contain my excitement.

 

It's bad enough with Webbo's "Nah-Nah-na-Nah. I've got a secret". [Vince Buck re-joins the Senior Management Team [football] at Clarence Park], without you joining him. Webbo, that is. Without you joining Webbo, not you joining the Senior Management Team.

[GHA EFM]

No Scotty Oakes then?

 

What chance of Ricky Perks and Neil Gough putting a 100 quid bet on being the first to score 25 goals?

[AFF]

Quite right, GHA. Simony Martin and Gary Sippettsy, wasn't it. One of Robbo's better quotes in the local rag, as I recall.

 

Still. Other things probably haunt him more.

[Rob_the_Saint]

No, not Scottyo Oakesieo. I said NEW. Former Rep of Ireland Youth and Under-21 International. That's enough for now, na-na na-na-na! <img src="/images/graemlins/tongue.gif" alt="" />

 

I'll have £100 quid on Perks and Gough NOT scoring 25 goals between them.

[AFF]

Five?

[GHA EFM]

I meant no Scotty Oakesaaaaaa at training then?

[Guest]

Where have all the other reserve team players gone and what job is vince buck coming back to do

Hi Rob.

a]. Which Monday is that likely to be, then?

b]. I saw in the Herts Advertiser that SC was expected to sign James 'Robbo' Robinson following the Battle of the Bulge. Did that happen?

c]. Two 'keepers. Hmmnnn. Are we going to have 4 goals on the pitch again this season?

d]. News of a former Saint. I hear that following his 22 goals for Arlesey last season, Craigy Mackaily-Smithy has signed a 3 year contract with the Daggers. He scored their winner in a PSF against AFC Wimbledon on Saturday, apparently.

I hear that training is going well - a couple of new faces have impressed and should have word of a couple of new signings on Wednesday..

 

 

[AFF]

From whom? Is Neily Gough banging 'em in?

 

Which Wednesday?

[Webbo MFI]

goto training (I thought you were due to the lack of players??!!)

 

this week
