Stevenage v Pompey

[Earl Grey]

I've made a rod for my back with this nickname fixture list lark...but if it keeps our run going then great. I might even get so familiar with the nicknames that I won't need to look half of 'em up each time.
Anyway, here goes:

Robins v U's
Railwaymen v U's
Mariners v Red Devils
Monkey Hangers v Chairboys
O's v Donny
Hatters v Grecians
Stags v Cumbrians
Exiles v Tangerines
Pilgrims v Shrimps
Boro v Pompey
Glovers v Stanley

Phew! I was worried you'd forget about this. And with Stevenage on 6 wins in a row at home, this was essential. I feel a lot more confident now Boro have no chance! And come on you Shrimps!

Great job Earl Grey! I remember buying a twix at half time from a particular kiosk under the North Stand when I was a kid, and we scored straight after the restart. I repeated this for many games but never with the same result!

[Locky_McLockface]

According to the Beeb, we've gone 442, and only named 3 subs!!

[Locky_McLockface]

Beeb have the subs wrong but no Bennett or Naismith.

[PakefieldBlue]

According to club tweet we're going 3-5-2 today.

[Pompey Penguin]

More like 3-4-1-2

Forde
Davies-Burgess-Clarke
Evans-Doyle-Rose-Stevens
Baker
Doyle-Hunt

Subs: O'Brien, Roberts, Linganzi, Kabamba, Lowe, Talbot, Chaplin.

OK on paper, but I hope the players understand what they are supposed to be doing.

[Berkshire Blue]

Interesting - and Kabamba on the bench for the first time.

Really looking forward to see how this unfolds (hopefully not unravels)!

I wish Whatmough was fit.

[RubiconCSL]

Oh dear. I turn my back for what seemed like 5 minutes and we are 2-0 down

[Earl Grey]

3-0

Never going to do nickname fixtures again

[RubiconCSL]

I blame you. Well and Andy Griffin of course.

Yeah! Bloomin' Andy Griffin's fault....again!

Seriously, and I said it in a post a week or two back, if you go 3 at the back it HAS to be Whatmough. Davies just doesn't have the quality to play that system.

However, Cook can use this situation to see what Kabamba (sp?) can do and maybe try a different formation since it can't get much worse.

[Earl Grey]

FFS!!!!!!

[Berkshire Blue]

It could have been worse - Carlisle lost and Luton and Exeter drew - pity about Plymouth, but there you go.

[Earl Grey]

England messing up in the rugby at the moment, too. Bad weekend so far.

Come on England.
