We have never lost a game he has been in charge of!

possibility he may show bias to the home team? Hope so

Actually - I hadn't noticed that. Every game of the 12 has been a home game. That can't be random.

saves on travel expenses?

Looks like they are this weekend with both Lino's from Hertfordshire as well. Did you come in a taxi?

 

[Yoda]

Good omen then?

 

[Tony Meolas Loan Spell]

We will still lose to Crewe. At best a draw. I cant remember beating them in over 20 years.

They are our bogey side.

as are Reading

 

[Tony Meolas Loan Spell]

We beat Reading 3-1 in our 2nd Div Championship season. That was only 4 years ago. Lewis, Melton and Zamora (not in that order tho)

We havent beaten Crewe in about 20.

Might be coz we've only played them 10 times.

Bout time we got a win.
We are due one soon.

 

[Basil Fawlty]

I'm very positive about Saturday, i think we will raise our game and get our first three points of the season.

 

[Yoda]

Been 35 years.

The wait to beat Crewe is to rough them up. Let them play and they will murder you. Sadly, roughing up is not our style.

 

[227 BHA]

It will be 3-1 to the Albion - I dreamt it last night so it must be true!!

 

[Normandy seagull]

Is Urgarte playing for them- I hope not he was quality for Wrexham

 

[rool]

Can we sticky this?

 

[perseus]

What is the team going to be?

Henderson (cos he can speak English)
Reid (not in midfield?) Butters McShane Mayo (who else?)
? Oatway (not definite) Carpenter Hammond
CK Richards Turienzo (probably not fit yet?)


subs: Chaigneau, El Dabh (definite), Dodd, Leon Knight, ?

The right side of midfield will depend on their team. I think the reputation is that the Crewe defence is weak, their midfield is better and their forwards are what was available (Ugarte though).

Leon Knight, Carole, Nicolas, or Reid (Dodd at full back).

Myself I would like to see Hammond and Carpenter in the centre of midfield.

Because Reid can overlap on the right, Leon Knight could play on the left hand side? Or perhaps CK Richards could drift out wide on the left and Carole could play wide right?

Or we could have a player behind the front two (as Currie attempted to do sometimes), but who, neither Gary Hart or Nicolas are good enough?

Gawd knows

 

[Edward Scissorhands]

SCR Said Mayo out, Dodd at left back, with Reid dropping to right back, and Carole on the right wing.

 

[king Wombat]

that sounds good to me
