reserve game

[boaky]

Is the game tomorrow on?what time kick off?

[Peter W.]

To the best of my knowledge the game for the reserves against Havant is still on for Monday at about 7.30 pm ( this may sound vague , but the refs tend to just start as soon as both the teams are ready, therefore a scheduled kick off at 7.45pm often becomes 7.30pm )

I spoke to Francis Duku and Steve McKimm and they both thought they would be playing, depending on other commiments, it also may include Louie Evans, Kevin Budge, Jamie Turner and possibly Tostao.But it is usually a surprise to everyone who plays.

Hopefully the board room will be open for tea or coffee, and to get warmed up at half time.

If you can come along I havent seen a bad game of football by the reserves yet, its fast and furious stuff. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

Any one go to the reserve game last night ? [color:"blue"] [/color]

[Richard C]

6-1

 

Budge 2

Evans 3 and an OG

 

Duku and Macca both played.

Great to see.

Evans looks good enough whenever he comes into the side, and is obviously doing the business for the reserves but where can we accomodate him?

Oh sod it, in the remaining games vs the bottom half teams let's play 4-3-3!!

[David Holden]

Before we get too carried away, people that saw the match told me that H&W were VERY poor.

 

Let's introduce to Conference football gradually, we do not want to ruin him.

[Student Scum]

I agree, just jesting about the 4-3-3 .

It's me again Dave, I'm afraid I didn't follow your advice and add one of your smiley faces to the end.....

Evans has stepped up a great deal from whence he came and I like the look of him(oo-er) a very lively, intelligent player but obviously young. Let's hope Peterborough regret letting him go.

But how good is Budgie then, if we buy him for a 4-figure sum then (practically) consign him to the reserves?

Is he to be our Malcolm Christie....?

[David Holden]

Well I rate him quite highly, I think his first touch is very good indeed, whether he can make the transition up from the Ryman League remains to be seen.

 

The problem is that until we are safe, Andy can't take too many risks. Lets win the next 4 matches and then we can see what the new guys can do.

[I.C.@G&NFC]

Agree Dave, Budge and Evans look as though they could be players for next season. Ease them in with reserve games, subs on Saturdays and a few first team starts once we're safe.

 

I rate Evans highly, on the appearances he's made he has natural ability in front of goal. Maybe he's that striker we've been on about all season. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/cool.gif" alt="" />

Its a shame more people do not attend to see the boys, they play a good game,as there is no real pressure on them.

I realise it is difficult as the matches keep being moved but word of mouth meant they had about 40 spectators last night, who enjoyed seeing young Louie get another three.

I have suggested we put up the fixtures at the ground, but because they are constantly being changed, it may just cause problems.

The next one at the moment is against Cray Wanderers at home on Monday 24th Feb 7.45 ish,Semi Final of the Kent Inter Cup,so if you can tell the wife you are just taking the dog for a long walk, pop down and support the lads.

It is £3 for an adult £1 for Kids, this is to try and recoup the Officals fees.

I for one no longer buy programmes. They just pile up. How about the chap on the tannoy giving us more info on these games. Tuesday nights this season have been very quite after our early cup exit and the scrapping of the league cup. If I knew the matches were on I would go.

On the subject on programmes, anybody else noticed that they are 'not quite up to date'?

 

I mean, last Saturday's featured player was Paul Sturgess!

[Richard C]

We did have a laugh about that 2. Interesting to know everything about Paul but he no longer plays for us!!!!!

[Slartibartfast]

Shame though because when he wasn't injured or sent off he looked pretty useful.

[Richard C]

Definitely, We have been blessed this year to see some of the best left backs in the league playing for us. Skins is still one of the best left backs in this league easily. Sturg and nutter were both very good as well.

Quote:

Duku and Macca both played.

How long did they both play....?
How fit/fat did they both look....?
When can we expect to see them back in the firsts...?

[Peter W.]

Francis played the whole game and Steve plated the first half.

They both looked good out there and were both glad to be back,wether they are back to First team yet is up to Andy.
